Overview

Here's how to connect your Schoology sections to Pivot Interactives classes. If you have multiple sections in Schoology, you can link them to individual Pivot Interactives classes or a single, "master" Pivot Interactives class.

Step 1: Create a Pivot Interactives assignment in Schoology

Connecting your Schoology sections to classes imported into Pivot Interactives from a rostering service requires that you connect an assignment. When you connect future assignments, you won't have to re-select which sections/classes to connect.

  1. Click Add Materials.

  2. Click Pivot Interactives.

  3. The first time you do this, you'll be prompted to log into your Pivot Interactives account. Enter your Pivot Interactives account information.

Step 2: Creating a Pivot Interactives class the first Schoology section

You will be creating a Pivot Interactives class for each of your Schoology sections one at a time.

  1. Click Add Pivot Class +

  2. Fill in the information for each Pivot Interactives class you need to create.

    1. Name - name the Pivot Interactives class whatever you'd like.

    2. End Date - choose the date after which the class will end. Students will be automatically dropped from the class 30 days after the end date. If needed, you can change the end date after the class is created.

    3. Subject, Grade Level, and Instructional Level - enter the information appropriate for your sections.

  3. Click Create Class.

  4. Click the newly created class, then Connect Class

  5. If you previously assigned an activity, then click the assignment name, then Connect Assignment.

  6. Otherwise, click Add Pivot Assignment

  7. Find the activity you wish to assign in your library, then click Assign.

  8. (Optional) If you've not added any activities to your personal library yet, then click Pivot Interactives Library. Use the filters to find an activity. Click Preview to open a new tab and see the activity as a student would. Click Copy & Assign to copy the activity to your library and assign it to your sections.

  9. Make sure you've set the appropriate due dates, then click Assign.

  10. Click the name of the assignment you just created, then click Connect Assignment

Step 3: Connecting additional Schoology sections

  1. Click the assignment in Schoology that you just created.


  2. The assignment will load in another tab. Close that tab to return to the Schoology tab.

  3. Click the section name under the assignment title, then select the next section you need to connect from the dropdown.

  4. You have two options here:

    1. Create a separate Pivot Interactives class to connect this section to - Do this by clicking Add Pivot Class +

    2. Connect this section to the same Pivot Interactives class you just created - Do this by clicking the name of the Pivot Interactives class, then Connect Class.

  5. Repeat for any additional sections.
