First, click the Schoology SIS Connect app from the left menu of your course.
When the app is launched for the first time, it will ask for your approval.
Begin by saving your category settings in the Configuration tab of the app:
Map your ProgressBook Course Categories to the Schoology Course Categories: When creating graded materials in Schoology, assign a Category to each item. When items sysnc back to your ProgressBook GradeBook, they will be assigned to the categories in your SIS based on the mapping in this area. NOTE: You can map more than one Schoology category to a single grading category in ProgressBook
Click Save Configuration to apply your changes.
If your sections are linked in Schoology, you must configure the SIS Connect Teacher app in each of the sections. Once you have configured the first section, click Save Configuration, then click on the drop-down menu to toggle into a different section to continue configuration.
The name of the graded item. Each graded item myust have a unique name within the course. (there may be issues with items that have names longer than 50 characters [including spaces])
The due date for the graded item. Please make sure your Schoology assignments have due dates to ensure your grade sync is successful
The grading category the item belongs to, as established by the Course Admin in the Configuration area of the SIS Connect app
The numeric score a student received on the graded item
Currently, only assignment grades are supported as part of the gradebook sync. Grading scales, weights, attendance will not be passed over to your SIS.
Due date may be a required field in your SIS, but not in Schoology. Please make sure your Schoology assignments have due dates within the term to ensure your grade sync is successful.
If an item is ungraded in Schoology, meaning it is not associated with a grading category, it will not sync to your SIS.
What happens if I delete a material from Schoology?
If an assignment is deleted from Schoology, it will no longer be updated in subsequent syncs from the SIS Connect app. However, the item will still appear in your ProgressBook GradeBook.
If I restore deleted material from Schoology, will the sync still work?
Yes. If you restore deleted materials from the Course Recycle Bin, the next time you Sync Changes from Schoology, it will effectively "reconnect" based on the item's unique ID and start updating the materials in ProgressBook again.
Should I make changes directly in the ProgressBook Gradebook? If so, will they be reflected in Schoology?
No. Graded items created and updated in ProgressBook will not be transferred to Schoology.
Can I sync comments on graded items? If so, will the comments be visible to students or hidden from students based on the setting in Schoology?
Yes, comments under 100 characters on graded materials are supported in the sync of grades from the SIS Connect app.
