#SchoologyChat A1. I think updates are an important feature as are creating folders with student completion rules.

MrsMurat May 2 @ 9:12 PM EDT

A1: I rely heavily on the integration of Google Drive with @schoology. Can't wait until it gets even better! #schoologychat

robert_schuetz May 2 @ 9:12 PM EDT

A1 Terrific ? Maybe not what you're looking for, but I attend to colors, pictures, large & readable fonts, clear structure #SchoologyChat

bdubbox May 2 @ 9:12 PM EDT

This is an awesome idea. I don't have any VI students but I'm going to share this information tomorrow. #SchoologyChat

In reply to @TaraAmsterdam

JaredRLopatin May 2 @ 9:12 PM EDT

A1: Video features (Deaf school). Also, overlapping text for language layers. (Brain fart - cannot think of feature name.) #schoologychat

apptasticteach May 2 @ 9:13 PM EDT

I keep everything clean & within folders, follow routines, color coding and formats tend to stay the same #schoologychat

In reply to @JaredRLopatin

A1: I love uploading my own videos into @Schoology b/c when students view full screen, it auto closes out when it finishes #SchoologyChat

bdubbox May 2 @ 9:14 PM EDT

A1: I try 2 keep folders & instructions clear and simple. ESE students can become bogged down if things are too layered #SchoologyChat

Folders, calendar dates and updates. Also teach them to access older assignments from their grades page. #SchoologyChat

I will hunt down the feature name but it shows text you want to show when you hover over other text. Offers layered info. #SchoologyChat

tech4mm May 2 @ 9:16 PM EDT

#schoologychat A1 The calendar tends to be the hot spot for must-have info for Ss.

apptasticteach May 2 @ 9:17 PM EDT

Lock assignments once they are turned in so they disappear from my Ss list for turning in. Talking about some of this at NEXT #schoologychat

MrsMurat May 2 @ 9:17 PM EDT

My subs have basically become monitors and attendance takers since everything the Ss need is in Schoology. #schoologychat

In reply to @jjnevinski

A1: I also load all my videos to YouTube. They easily embed into Schoology and YouTube adds closed captions. #SchoologyChat

A2 You have to consider the context of use. Where, when, why, and how will your Ss be accessing materials? #SchoologyChat

A2: Sit with Ss. Observe how they interact with course content. Learn from their experiences and adjust design as needed. #schoologychat

TNording May 2 @ 9:18 PM EDT

I use updates in my homeroom class for Ss so they can ask each other ?'s. One Ss is creating & posting how to videos on it. #SchoologyChat

Justin_r_malin May 2 @ 9:11 PM EDT

#SchoologyChat A1. I think updates are an important feature as are creating folders with student completion rules.
