Overall Satisfaction with Schoology

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

I started using Schoology since last year so it's been more than a year now. Last year, I taught fourth graders and this year, I am teaching first grade. I have implemented online teaching and blended learning via Schoology. I am also responsible for helping other teachers on campus with successfully implementing schoology with their students in class.

Pros and Cons

Pros

My students love emailing me via Schoology.
Before, homework wasn't something to look forward to but now my kids ask me to assign them homework on Schoology.
Schoology has made grading so much easier.
I love the rubrics provided by Schoology.
My students ' parents are always updated about homework, upcoming events, newsletters, pictures, and videos via parent folder on Schoology.

Cons

I would love Schoology and YouTube to talk to each other. My kids are unable to watch a video on Schoology via YouTube in school. I know the school district blocks it but there has to be a way out.
Please work on the students' usernames. They are too long!
I would like Schoology to have avatars like Class Dojo, instead of badges. I know the kids would love that. 😊🙂

Return on Investment

Students enjoy working on the computers.
Grading became easier.
Parents are able to keep track of their kids' progress.

Other Software Used

Microsoft 365 Business

Likelihood to Recommend

Last year, when I had a challenging group of kids who weren't too excited about writing and they had to take the STAAR Writing Test (state test in Texas,) Schoology was a blessing! Kids started to enjoy writing and the assignments became interesting again, thanks to Schoology.
