[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It is a fairly straightforward system to use. Get his login. When you go to courses, it will show all the classes he is taking. Look through to see what is posted. There is a calendar on the top right that should show scheduled quizzes and tests (not all teachers keep this updated).

You will generally not find grades there. That is only available in SIS.[/quote]

this... just go course by course and see what's posted. DS is only in middle school but I quickly figured out what I really need to keep an eye on... 
 - his math teacher is great, posts detailed daily schedule for each unit with what they're covering in class, classwork, homework, videos, links, test schedule etc. Very easy for me to say - did you do the homework? have you studied for the test?
 - his english teacher is second best. She posts daily agendas with what they're covering in class and sometimes includes ongoing projects and upcoming tests. But since it's daily he doesn't have a big picture of the unit or what's upcoming.
 - science teacher is very sporadic and doesn't really seem to know how to use the tool. She'll post stuff every now and then but doesn't reference it in class (or DS doesn't hear her). Occasionally will have a post on schoology to remind them of an upcoming test and/or tell them what to focus on, but it's really inconsistent.

i really only check those 3 - and it's more to make sure he's on top of things if he tells me he doesn't have any work to do. I watch for updates/announcements from the other classes but the rest seem to not have homework and are easy As.

The key is having your kids login - the parent view is very different and less detailed. Which is great if your kid is on top of things but most aren't.[/quote]

I use my kid's login to get the detailed view.  [/quote]
