Using Schoology to Manage Classroom




Schoology is one of the online courses management system that allow teacher to create and manage academic courses for their students. As a social networking platform, Schoology can facilitate teachers in doing classroom management. By using Schoology, teachers are able to post assignments, tests, quizzes, discussions, and other activities online within their courses, allowing students to work individually or collaboratively whenever and wherever they are, even from home.

Schoology also has a report feature, which automatically calculates the value of tasks, quizzes, and replays that have been made by the user. And also attendance recorders, where students can be marked as "present", "permission", "late", or "not entered".



What can Schoology be used for?
The ability to login to a site that is so well connected in design would hopefully fill the gaps in daily communication between students teachers, and parents.

Teacher
Teachers would be able to have a private site connected to education, rather than attempting to  seek out coworkers on personal social sites. The underlying concept of Schoology is professional and academic - with those two characteristics in place teachers would be able to share resources, post best practices, and build an online learning community. There are other sites that are academic in framework but Schoology is so closely parallel to commonly used social sites that many teachers could use it more efficiently.

Student
Social networking is nearly nonexistent in my particular elementary school; though some school provide online access to educational programs, there is not a lot of connection between student learning in an online capacity. Schoology would allow students to have a forum to discuss academic concepts, share knowledge and use Web 2.0 tools for learning purposes. Although the student view does not allow teachers to censor every comment, the exposure to other learners views would be beneficial to young learners as they prepare for middle school and all the social expectations they will soon encounter. It is important that teachers take the time to convey student expectations clearly as they would with any other resource students utilize.

Parent
Often parents are on the receiving end of "what the teacher said" and clear  communication suffers because of this. Schoology would provide a private link to see student updates on a daily basis. This program would alleviate the issues that are when the report card comes home and the parent is shocked. Teachers can post due dates, assignment details, resources to help parents at home, etc. to assist parents with take a pivotal role in their child's success.
