- The microphone opens only while the student holds the space bar; page photos are sent to AI but, the page says, are not saved by Desk Tutor.
Field notes
The student holds the space bar to open the microphone and releases it to close; a tap signals that the tutor should look at the page. The page says images are checked for faces on the family’s computer, blurred and withheld if one is found, while acknowledging that no check is perfect. During testing, an administrator reads the parent note and written session record to find faults, with family agreement at first sign-in.
