Auto Reloader For Chrome Broswer

During in-service on Friday, I had a great question and now I great answer! As a district, we are using Hapara to more easily manage our Google Drive and Chromebooks. A great "add-on" feature of this is the ability to see a screenshot of the current screen on our students' Chromebooks. Unfortunately, Hapara doesn't refresh this automatically and, as teachers, we all know that students can get off task in a blink of an eye, so it's important to see the students' computer screens at any given time.

Here is the answer: "I've got an Extension for That!" 
Auto-reloader is an extension that you can set to automatically reload a page at set intervals. If you do this every two or three minutes, you will surely be able to refresh what you see on your Hapara monitoring screen in a timely-enough fashion and not feel like you are clicking crazy waiting for it to reload.

I hope this helps and, thanks Cindy, for the question and now solution!
