Google Classroom

LINK YOUR GOOGLE CLASSROOM TO YOUR SISK12 ROSTERS & GRADEBOOK!

Teachers now have the ability to link Tyler SISK12 and Google Classroom! This will allow teachers to make use of two important functions: 1) Roster your Google Classroom according to the class lists reflected in SISK. 2) Import grades from Google Classroom into your SISK Gradebook.

Please note: This is not a perfect system, as getting these two programs to "talk" to each other can be tricky! You may need to engage in some troubleshooting to streamline the process.

Q: How do I find my students' Google username and passwords in SISK12?

A: Click for a step-by-step guide.

Q: How do I see what Google Classroom looks like from my students' point of view?

A: Enroll a fake NSC Google Account in your Google Classroom class, and then log in with the fake account. CLICK HERE for more information!
