Introducing the new Schoology experience
Schoology has updated its interface and workflows to make it even easier to use — with better accessibility and a more modern experience.
The new experience includes a new top navigation and footer, and removes the left navigation from the homepage, making it:
- Easier to access all of your tools throughout Schoology.
- Simpler for instructors and administrators to get things done with a more streamlined workflow.
- Better for younger learners, with a visual card layout for courses and groups.
Here's a high-level overview of the changes System Admins can expect from the new Schoology experience:
