Schoology linking
TEACHER

Before starting this process, review the following items:

  • If applicable, link Schoology sections

  • Log into Macmillan Learning and create a course for each section you teach - a course for each is needed even if you are linking your Schoology sections

  • Do not unlink Schoology sections once LaunchPad assignments are completed or graded without seeking advice from the Tech Help

  • This process needs to be repeated each Semester

To link a Schoology section to a LaunchPad course:

  1. Navigate to Add Materials > Add File/Link/External Tool > External Tool

  2. Select “BFW Course Tools” from the predefined dropdown list and save

  3. Click the newly added External Tool

  4. Click “Connect with LaunchPad”

  5. Click the LaunchPad course to “Associate” to your Schoology section

  6. Repeat this process for each Schoology section using the section drop down box
