Schoology

When properly configured, the Schoology learning management system allows you to import content from PASCO Portal directly into a Schoology course. This process requires Learning Tools Interoperability (LTI) integration using LTI 1.3. Before teachers in your organization can perform this process, you must set up an LTI 1.3 app in Schoology with the aid of a PASCO Portal admin. The sections below outline this setup process in detail.

Prerequisites

Before setting up LTI 1.3 on Schoology, you will need a set of URLs which will be provided on PASCO Portal or by the PASCO Portal admin or customer support. The following URLs are required to set up and configure LTI 1.3 on Schoology:

• LTI URL
• Authentication request URL
• Public KeySet URL
• Redirection URL
• Deeplinking URL

Set up an LTI 1.3 application on Schoology

1. Select the Apps icon in the primary navigation bar, then select App Center.

   

2. In the App Center, select My Developer Apps.

   

3. Select + Add App to create a new LTI app.

1. On the Schoology homepage, select Course Dashboard, then select the course to which you wish to add Portal content.

   

2. Select Materials in the navigation bar on the left, then select Add Materials and select the name of the LTI app.

   

3. Browse the content on Portal, then select one or more files to add. You can select multiple files, but only if they are all within the same chapter, lesson, or unit.

   

   

   

4. Select Confirm, then select Yes to add the selected content to the course.

   

You can now launch the added content by returning to the Materials page and selecting the desired Portal content from the list.
