I am so grateful for how well of a start 20/20 has had! Thank you to all who have signed up! Don't forget 20/20 will continue into April!
Schoology
Thank you all for dealing with the changes in Schoology sign up. I deeply apologize for any inconvenience. I had my training yesterday and I can't wait to show you all that is in store. Once the PD cycle approves our dates, you will be able to sign up for the Schoology training online through the BCPS registration system - I will let you know! If you have not picked a choice on the poster, please do so soon! :-)
Here's a sneak peak to what Schoology's home page looks like:
- create updates, events, and reminders right from the home screen
- reply directly to your email through Schoology
- connect/upload your One Drive directly to Schoology
- download the app
- send audio or video messages
- organize and share a class calendar
- create groups for after school clubs (mentoring, PTA, MESA, etc.)
- access other grade level content by having an access code
- create your own folders with various interactive content
- attach rubrics to assignments
- awesome grade book features
And a ton more! I can't wait to share all features with you. You will receive printed materials on our mandatory April 9th Schoology training. The one hour training will be an overview of Schoology while the two one and a half hour sessions will dig deep into all that Schoology can do! Both sessions will be hands on! When you see this newsletter, shout "Schoology, Schoology rah rah rah" when you see me!
