Overall Satisfaction with Schoology

Schoology is an all encompassing learning management system (LMS) that allows teachers to expand the walls of the classroom beyond the school day. Students can easily log into their Schoology account and access class materials, watch embedded videos, practice skills, or respond to class discussions. Schoology is used in our entire school building.
  • Teachers can organize and create folders and build an entire course throughout the year.
  • Restrictions can easily be enabled to ensure that student's post before they see other responses.
  • Students can easily add their Google Drive App and submit assignments from Google Drive directly to Schoology.
  • Teachers have an easy toggle feature that allows them to score student work efficiently without opening new tabs for every student assignment.
  • The Schoology App works extremely well in a 1:1 iPad classroom.
  • Rubrics can be easily created and directly attached to the assignment.
  • The App doesn't provide all of the same features as the web version.
  • I have not made one copy this school year.
  • I am able to give detailed and specific feature to students.
  • I am able to manage my teaching world in one place.
When I was using another popular LMS I found that my students treated it like Facebook. After I switched to Schoology I have found that the interface and the assignment feed are easier to manage and sort through.
Students treat Schoology as a course and not another form of social media. I find the assignment feature and uploading from Google Drive seamless. I've been able to leave feedback and not feel overwhelmed reading 100 essays submitted in Schoology. The hardest feature of Schoology is learning and discovering all of the bells and whistles it offers. I would recommend using Schoology with a team of teachers or a colleague. It's much easier to bounce ideas off of each other as you tinker with its features.
