Abstract: The system set forth herein relates to a network formed between an instructor device and one or more student devices where the system monitors sensors in the student devices to determine whether the student is distracted. The instructor is able to identify operating parameters for the system in the form of rules. The student devices must follow the rules, and where the system detects a rule violation, a warning may be issued to the instructor, student, or both. This allows students to have their mobile devices (such as cell phones or tablets) in class, and even use the mobile devices to participate in class, but also allows the instructor to remotely control and monitor how those student devices are being used.
