Schoology Setup

SCHOOLOGY

This is a "Learning Management System" (LMS) that organizes online grading, feedback, classroom discussions, and simple online quizzes and testing.

Every student in the class needs to set up an account.

PLEASE follow the instructions CAREFULLY, and set up your account now -

Don't make another!
Try to log on with your existing userid to combine your classes
If need be, request a password reminder, and go to your OLD email account to find it
If need be, find the ACCOUNT SETTINGS and update your email address to your scloud address

Create a New Account using your @ocdsb.ca email address
- Be DEADLY accurate! This email address can help you recover from a lost password!
- Copy and paste the access code provided by your teacher to join the appropriate tech class
- You can edit your USERID later for easier logins

I've used a typo in my email address
- It will still let you log on, but go to your account settings and fix it!
I've created a new account, but it doesn't have any of my old marks or courses
- Ask your teacher for the email address of your "populated" account
- Delete the "empty" account
I can't correct my email address, because I made a new account that uses the proper email address
- You can correct the email address IF you first go to your "empty" accounts and alter the email addresses there - you can put in anything as an address - you just need to "free up" the correct one so it can be applied to your "populated" account
