Overall Satisfaction with Schoology
Four years ago our District was in search of a single Learning Management System to use. At that point in time, our teachers were using whatever LMS they preferred. During this time we noticed that our student needed consistency. Talking with one student, he had to work with 7 different LMS's to get class information or turn in assignments. Through a year of research, our team (admin, teachers, and students) decided on Schoology as our main LMS. Schoology offers us an easy way to deploy information to students in a variety of methods. It allows our students to turn in homework one way. Schoology had an app that works well with our 1:1 iPad environment. Schoology just fits with everything we wanted to do. We are in year 3 and can say that 100% of our Secondary teachers and 90% of our Primary teachers use Schoology on a daily basis.
Pros
- Students like it.
- Works well on Mobile Devices
- Easy to train teachers how to use.
Cons
- Not all features that Schoology offers work through the app
- Need more reporting tools
- Schoology is how we do business now.
- We have a system in place that is consistent grades 2 through 12
Moodle was too messy and complicated. Teachers did not like the appearance. iTunes University worked well with our iPads but 3 years ago it did not have all the features that we wanted and needed. We selected Schoology due to its ease of use and the fact that at the time it had everything we needed.
