Schoology NEXT 2016

Assessments are a powerful tool used to inform instruction and increase student performance. Schoology’s new assessment solution allows educators to create teams to collaboratively develop formative and summative assessments, and then to distribute them to multiple course sections. You can then compare the data across the course, grade level, or district. Join Schoology Product and PD team members for this hands-on session, and be the first to experience this exciting new platform.

Session Objectives:
1) Be a student - take a Schoology Assessment.
2) Build a Assessment Question Bank.
3) Deliver an Assessment to multiple Courses/Students.
4) Analyze Assessment Data.
