Types of Reports
Maintaining a safe, respectful environment is a top priority in SchoolSpace. To support that, there are two types of reports available to help identify and address concerning behavior:
Student Reports
These are reports submitted by students when they experience or witness inappropriate behavior from a peer.
What’s Included in a Student Report:
- Time of incident
- Name of reported student
- Name of reporting student
- Reason for the report (selected from dropdown: intimidation, threats, illegal activity, etc.)
- Additional comments from the reporter.
- Location. The URL of the world where the incident occurred or a URL of the message history if a message was reported.
| Student A (SchoolSpace username) has been reported Reported by: Student B (SchoolSpace username) Reason: THREATS Comments: being mean to me Location: [URL of the world where the report occurred] |
Students can submit reports from within any SchoolSpace world. Learn how students submit reports.
Gaggle Reports
If your school has opted in to automated reports via Gaggle, you may see system-generated alerts based on the presence of certain keywords or sentiment in a student’s messages. Gaggle’s system (which is a combination of AI-flagged and human review) scans chat messages for terms related to:
- Self-harm or harm to others
- Harassment or threats
- Inappropriate behavior
A system-generated Gaggle Report will follow the same flow as a student generated report and are accessible from inside the world, in Dashboard, or through your school's designated internal messaging channel.
| Student A has been reported by Gaggle Location: [URL of the world where the message was sent] Message Content: You're stupid. Message History Link: [Link to chat containing flagged message] Gaggle Warning Type: QUESTIONABLE_CONTENT Gaggle Category: BULLYING Gaggle Keywords: STUPID Gaggle Notes: This incident indicates bullying. |
Gaggle will only moderate messages if your school opts in. For details on Gaggle monitoring, contact your Customer Success representative or reach out to success@schoolspace.io.
Viewing Reports
Reports can be viewed by a Moderator, Manager, or Owner in a world, in Dashboard, or in your school's designated internal messaging channel.
