Schoology is a learning management system that has been in existence since 2007 and is used by over 20,000 schools and districts. It started as a way for three college students to share lecture notes but now allows teachers to manage calendars, communicate with students and parents, give online tests and quizzes, track grades and dates, and engage in professional learning. The cloud-based platform integrates tools like Google Docs, Moodle, Khan Academy, and discussion boards to facilitate collaboration between teachers and students. It provides a safe, customizable online learning environment that saves time for teachers and students while making resources constantly available.
