Lock an iPad to a Single Page or Application Using Guided Access

Locking the iPad to a single application or web page can be useful if a student needs to stay focused on one thing without "wandering off" to search the web or check other things on the iPad.  Additionally, Guided Access will be used to lock iPads into the NWEA Testing on the iPad.

Turning on Guided Access must be done on each iPad.  As far as I know, it cannot be done remotely or for groups of iPads at one time.

Here is the Apple documentation for turning on and using Guided Access.

And below is a 3 minute video that I made demonstrating how to set and use Guided Access.
