Embedding into Schoology or other LMS

I am unsure if anyone answered this or has been created. Can teachers embed code.org into Schoology or any other LMS as a one-stop shop for student access?

Hi @phyllicia.moore,

If you mean can the Code.org lesson/activity appear directly within a page in Schoology, then no that is not possible. You can link from your LMS to the lesson/activity in https://studio.code.org/ but there is no embed feature for each lesson or bubble to be added to a page in an LMS. I link from Canvas to the lessons I want them to complete each day.

For Canvas LMS, there is a “Commons” where others share templates for curriculum and/or classes. You can then copy and use theses shared templates. I am not familiar with Schoology but you could check to see if they have a similar feature or perhaps others can give more advice for Schoology and CSDiscoveries. It is certainly nice to not have to “recreate the wheel” if we don’t have to.

Hi. This discussion has been quiet for many years. But posting here just in case. I’m wondering what method/structure teachers used when trying to deliver the course content through a LMS (learning activities/materials that are not code studio activities in addition to just using an LMS for assignment submission)? I use Canvas but my district blocks the Commons, so I can’t see other shared examples.

Thanks in advance for any suggestions

There is canvas integration now, but it is limited and seems to work best as a single sign-on link from canvas to code.org. It doesn’t support passback of scores to canvas or anything like that.

Otherwise, I just use a link to the specific activity I want them to do, but I have to change the link every year after the curriculum URL’s update.

I have to try this technique because if I just add the sign in link it leads to the dashboard and that always confuses them. It would be nice if the most recently assigned course is on the top of the dashboard but it’s usually buried somewhere on the page.
