I use Schoology for every aspect of Course Delivery

What are the best aspects of this product?

This product does everything that a teacher would need to maintain an online presence with their course. It allows us to house and embed all of their materials for their own classroom organization or for student perusal. We can post and grade discussions, assignments, and electronic portfolios. We can post updates to our students, parents, club members, sports teams, and colleagues.

What aspects are problematic or could work better?

There aren't any pressing issues that damage my experience with Schoology. The team works constantly to make improvements on the platform, and many of the improvements come from suggestions from their clients. They seek feedback and updates are meaningful for their users. One of the tech people told us that they constantly ask the question, "What else can we do?" After my experience with it in the past year and a half, I can say that this question drives the Schoology experience.

What features/services would you like to see in future versions of this product?

I would like to see transcript services and more report options for the grade book. Also, it would be nice to see seating charts in the platform.

What specific problems in your company were solved by this product?

This product gives our teachers and parents stronger communication via automated, personalized weekly parent emails. Parents and students have far better access to upcoming and overdue work than they have ever had before. The whole building is more unified by the group updates and calendar. Finally, and very significantly, it is so easy to add files, folders, videos, photos, etc. to a course that everyone has enjoyed the improved availability of course materials beyond the classroom.
