As the end of the year approaches, you may be concerned about losing your work in your Schoology courses. Here are a few things to keep in mind:
Your courses will not be deleted, and the information in them will not be lost.
It is possible to make a copy of your course materials to save time building your courses next year.
Since both districts use the paid version of Schoology, your courses will be archived at the end of the marking period
You will still have access to these courses via your archived course list (See the video to the right)

How to make a copy of your course resources
How to make a copy of your course resources
This process allows you to copy the materials from your course to your personal resources to be copied to future courses. You can do this before or after a course is archived, but we recommend doing this BEFORE the course is archived, but you will ALWAYS have access to your older courses whether or not you copy to your resources.
This process allows you to create a "clone" of your course that can be copied to future courses, saving you time.
When will my courses for next year be available?
When will my courses for next year be available?
Courses in Schoology are not available until everything has been loaded into the online grade book system (SchoolTool), which is dependent on some variables within the district. There are a few other options available if you want to build materials before you are looking to build materials prior to your SchoolTool bases courses are built:
It is possible to build materials in the Resources area (on the top menu of the screen) or in a group. One thing to keep in mind is that some materials look and behave slightly differently in resources and a group. Another option is:
Create your own course and copy materials to that course, or build new materials there. Some advantages to this model are:
Materials will behave exactly the same as this is a course, just like your SchoolTool based courses
It is possible to have team members join your course as a co-admin to help build
The team members can also be demoted from co-admin to a "student" role within the course to gain the "student view" of the course materials
Once you SchoolTool courses have been created, it is possible to either copy materials over in a piece-mail fashion, or copy the entire course material set over using the "Copy to Resources" method outlined above.
The video to the right shows how to create a Schoology course that is not SchoolTool based.
