Overall Satisfaction with Schoology

All of the secondary schools (teachers and students) in our school district, as well as all district staff (for professional development), utilize Schoology.

Pros

  • Departments can build units/lessons/resources together in group resources. This keeps curriculum consistent amongst teachers and buildings.
  • Students have a consistent layout from teacher to teacher, and because we have the enterprise version that integrates with PowerSchool, their courses are created automatically.
  • Teachers can use this platform for professional development courses.

Cons

  • Still waiting for the Assessments feature to be completed - it's sort of in "beta" right now, which can be frustrating.
  • Teachers have stated they would like auto-save to happen within the platform so answers do not get lost.
  • Has a great integration with Google Drive, but the Google Drive Assignments feature (new feature) is a little disjointed. It works pretty well, though!
  • This allows common curriculum planning amongst teachers.
  • Students know how to navigate the platform because of consistency amongst courses.
Moodle is a similar product, but Schoology has a much more user-friendly interface and integrates with PowerSchool. Canvas is also similar, but the interface wasn't quite as smooth as Schoology.
This is well suited for school districts for students, curriculum building/housing, and for professional development. I'm not sure this would fulfill a large company's need for professional development and training.
