13. Schoology
service includes attendance
records, online grade book,
tests and quizzes, and
homework drop boxes. The
social
media
interface
facilitates
collaboration
among a class, a group, or
a school.
Reflection:
Schoology is a platform
designed by by Jeremy
Friedman, Ryan Hwang
and Tim Trinidad in 2007
while still undergraduates
at Washington University
in St. Louis, MO. originally
designed for sharing notes,
additional features and
functionality continue to
be added.
Visually familiar to users
of Facebook and
other
popular social networking
websites, the
Schoology is a very useful
tool to create online
courses, it gives you the
facility to upload quizzes,
forums (even if students
don’t write anything on
them)
you
can
also
program the activities with
time and date. There were
moments in which because
of the amount of activities,
working on schoology
became frustrating and
stressful.
