Individualize Instruction:
Pace and track students individually. Connect them in collaborative groups. Differentiate, flip, or blend instruction. Schoology makes it easier to identify student needs and guide them down the learning paths that are right for them.
Easily Grade Student Work:
Our grading tools enable instructors to access their students’ work, easily switch between submissions, provide written and video feedback, and record grades in one fell swoop.
Track Student Performance and Engagement: Our course analytics and student mastery reporting track student engagement and performance against preloaded standards (Common Core, NGSS, etc.) and custom learning objectives. This data enables faculty to make well-informed decisions and even provide instant feedback after a test or quiz.
They become more invested in learning through online discussions, sharing their ideas via videos and images, and simply engaging in a safe, moderated online environment.
