"Flexible, fully-featured and fun!"
15 June 2018
Schoology works best for a whole school setting where different ability levels of instructors and learners will be accessing the platform. Especially suited to an establishment which intends to develop a blended learning and learning self-paced learning approach outside of the classroom. A school which confidently uses mobile apps and digital technologies will find Schoology a healthy addition to their collection of digital tools.
Pros:
+A huge community of teachers and learners looking to sharing their experience and support one another in the usage of the platform.
+A recognisable user interface which makes the learning curve for new users simple and intuitive.
+Superb flexibility to create bespoke learning environments for teachers and learners.
Cons:
- Some limitation of iframe embed due to the HTTPS protocol requirement. Use of HTML code editor often strips the inclusion of more advanced features such as Java functions.
- Limitation toe badge and gamification of learning.
- LTI integration not fully functional, relying on apps developers to plug the gaps.

"Better than our previous system"
28 March 2024
We like it! It serves our needs and helps us build a good learning community!
Pros:
Ease of use. Student portal works cleanly. Ease to move from one class to another. Lots of choices for adding different types of questions to assessments. Easy to organize.
Cons:
It would be nice to have more options for displaying content. We have found some work-arounds in adding a few variations to the straightforward listing style, but it isn’t easy. It would be nice to be able to add some flair.

"Great for Educators"
12 September 2024
My overall experience with Schoology has been extremely positive. We used to use another program for recording students' grades. Once we merged everything over to Schoology, my job got a lot easier.
Pros:
This allows me to keep grades for all of my students easily. Schoology gives educators the ability to create assignments that automatically grade student responses. One great benefit of using Schoology is that it allows students and parents to stay current on overall grades.
Cons:
It takes a bit to get used to using Schoology. But after a few days of messing around on the website, you can easily use the program.

"small time user"
12 December 2024
I was satisfied with the small amount of time I used Schoology as it was predominantly just used for a space for the student to have learning material.
Pros:
Easy to use, clear layout, could add links to microsoft sway previous learning material.
Cons:
There was space for learning material, but from my time in using it there wasn't any space for overly interactive learning activities.
