[Year 12 IT Apps] Schoology

Hi there,
I was a huge Schoology user/fan in 2013 and half of this year also. I've made the switch to Google Classroom too. And yes while Schoology is far more feature-rich, the Google Drive integration with Classroom is just too good, considering I teach at a GAFE school where that side of it is already in place. Yesterday I actually made a video about it and it's already had over 200 views in less than 24 hours. Here's the link :

Dear colleagues

The reaccredited study design (VCE Computing), to be introduced in 2016, is now available on the  VCAA website at:

http://www.vcaa.vic.edu.au/Documents/vce/computing/ComputingSD-2016.pdf

Until 31 December 2015, you can only access this study design via the Information Technology study page - from 1 January 2016 the study will appear under 'Computing'.

Regards
Paula

I used Schoology a lot in 2013 and semester 1 this year and like it, but we're moving to classroom.google in 2015 so I've neglected it in semester 2. It's kind of like the love child of Moodle and Edmodo! Very good collaborative tools for teachers to share materials and ideas and you can assign work individually or to sub groups, very flexible. I managed to import some Moodle courses and quizzes into it. Correcting uploaded work is pretty straightforward and offers a lot of room for feedback and there are a lot of tutorial videos available.

I can't help you unfortunately Slyvia. We use Schoolbox and it is great! I tried out Google Classroom, it was lacking compared to what we use.

It would be interesting to see the new 'Advice for Teachers' and
'Assessment Handbook' too.
Is there an ETA for them?

The Advice for Teachers is scheduled to be available in April. There will be just one document combining elements of both the existing documents. The criteria, rubric and supplementary material for each SAT will be published later in the Bulletin.

Paula
