Modified on: Mon, 5 May 2025 7:59 AMHow to Assign a Video Lesson on Schoology
- Go to “Courses” and choose the course you’d like to assign a video lesson.
- Click on “Materials” in the menu on the left-hand side of your page.
- In the “Add Materials” drop-down menu, select “Edpuzzle.”
- This will open a pop-up window showing your “My Content” library on Edpuzzle (or prompting you to log in if you haven't done so already).
- Select your video lesson by clicking on the video thumbnail, then the blue “Next” button.
- On the next screen, choose whether you want to prevent skipping or turn on closed captions using the toggle switches next to each option.
- Click the blue “Assign” button, which will return you to the “Materials” page.
- Now click on the gear icon to the right of the assignment you've just created and select "Edit."
- Check the “Enable Grading” box in the pop-up window, select a category for your grades (i.e. homework) and click the blue “Save Changes” button. You can optionally set a due date at this point. (Note: Do NOT enter the consumer key and shared secret in this window as it will create errors for your students.)
- Now your video lesson is ready for your students on Schoology! Your students will start to appear on your Edpuzzle assignment and class lists as they access their first Edpuzzle assignment link.
Best of all, once students complete the lessons their grades will automatically sync with Schoology!
Note: If you're a teacher using the Schoology app, please note that you won't be able to view video lessons using a mobile device. You can, however, view them on a tablet.
