Teachers should ensure they are meeting these minimal requirements for using Schoology.

Please encourage your parents to join Schoology using their parent access codes often at the beginning of the school year. If they had one from the previous year, they should not need to do anything this year.

At the current time the School District of Pickens County has subscriptions for the following Gale Products that can be integrated into Schoology. Click here for more directions.

SDPC provides learning tools that have been vetted for the level of quality and alignment with SC standards, interoperability with our systems, and internet safety requirements. Only approved technology resources should be used.

Free or unapproved apps may not meet the same guidelines. Some free apps collect student data, ask for payment, contain advertisements not suited for K-12 students, and require students to be hand rostered.

AITS staff members are often asked how students can access their online textbooks. Unfortunately, unless teachers activate the materials, students will not have access. It is therefore VERY important to take a few minutes to do this step EVEN if you do not plan to utilize the digital resources yourself. Your students will.

Code.org applies to the following courses:

Fundamentals of Computing 1

Fundamentals of Computing 2

AP Computer Science Principles

DISCUS is available through the Launchpad. Look for the DISCUS icon. There are many great resources available this year for every day, as well as Digital Learning Days. See your media specialist for the username and password.

There is a 6th grade keyboarding program.

SAVVAS can now be installed in Schoology!
