“good, but plenty of room for improvement”

3.0

May 20, 2022

Schoology is a great product. There is plenty of room for improvement, and I remain hopeful they will look to competitors such as Canvas for ideas. It does almost everything one could want, but there are some real head-scratchers when you come across something it's not capable of.

Wonderful and user friendly

Feb 24, 2021

Schoology is excellent for teachers and students alike. It does not have a difficult learning curve: it's very user friendly and easy to navigate. As students deal with remote learning for the time being, it's extremely helpful to keep everyone on task.
