If a students pin code has been compromised you can reset their pin in the schools tab. Find the student in the table who's pin you want to reset and click the 3 dots next to their current pin. This will give you the option to reset the pin and enter a new pin for the student.
To help get students started quickly, it can be helpful to print out their login cards with their pin codes. To do this navigate to the schools tab, and check the boxes next to the students you want to print out the pins for. A bar at the bottom will appear after at least 1 student has been checked and give you the option to print out the pins.
If you want to see what a student has previously visited ASTRO lets you view the previous browsing history of a student. If you click on their card in the student tab it will show you all of the students browsing history so you can make sure they have been on track throughout the lesson and spent the appropriate amount of time on certain bits of content.
To change details of a student, find the student in the school tab and select Edit. This will present a dialog where you can change the students name and their year group.

URSOR is a brand-new app designed to allow kids to search the internet in a safe, appropriate manner. At URSOR we never track, allow advertising, or collect data of your child’s usage. Our goal at URSOR is to make a useful, safe platform for kids to start their early digital education. URSOR also allows kids to save and organise their previous searches in a visual way that helps retain knowledge and make connections between all of their interests!
For us at URSOR, an Internet for Kids means a safe place where kids can explore age-appropriate content on their favourite topics without the distractions of ads, click-bait, and hyperactive targeted content. Inside URSOR there is no social media, no auto-play YouTube, and no mindless and passive attention-killing content. Kids should be able to access the vast knowledge of the web without the exploitation of their vulnerable developing brains.
You would never throw your kid into the deep-end of a pool before he can swim, so we wouldn’t suggest doing the same with unfiltered, open-ended surfing online. URSOR starts kids slowly by introducing them to the basics of searching, choosing, and navigating sources. We remove the distractions of ads and excessive paid-for links so kids can learn first to view, digest, and retain information in a healthy age-appropriate manner.
STAY TUNED! URSOR is being fine tuned and polished as we speak and will be released by Autumn 2022. Until then please sign-up here for weekly updates on our progress, interesting links for kids, and our super-helpful blog posts!
If you are interested in reaching out to URSOR you can drop us a friendly email at hello@ursor.com.
