Blocked bing

Copper Contributor

We have had to block both Bing and Yahoo search as some of our students have figured out a away to avoid safe search and have been accessing porn and other sites that they should not be visiting. This has made life difficult for my students who are regularly using bing to pop images into their class notebooks using the insert online picture feature in class notebook. Has anyone else encountered this problem and found a way to prevent students from circumventing safe search?

I recommend implementing Bing Classroom. http://www.bing.com/classroom/ad-free-experience. In addition to no ads, safe search is on. See the setup instructions http://www.bing.com/classroom/about-us#faq in the FAQ.
We had Microsoft help set up our Bing in the Classroom a couple of years ago. One of the best decisions we made. It cuts out the inappropriate thumbnails as well as forcing the safe search.

I tried the links posted.
