Pros and Cons

 Schoology organizes resources is an easy-to-understand and design layout.

With this, student work and assignments are no longer lost in the "shuffle" of
the school day.
 Schoology works well with many other apps and programs such as Google
Docs, and uses an integrated LTI app so that users can embed other programs
such as Thinglink, Quizlet, Padlet, Smore, and many more.
 Schoology is always improving. Since implementing Schoology we have had
the benefit to see a number of key new additions be added to the platform
including LockDown Quizzes with Respondus, the AMP and Mastery Learning
feature, the Portfolio feature, and the upcoming enhanced Google Docs
integration.

 One feature I'd like to see added is the option to individually assign an entire
folder of contents to a particular student. As of now, each separate assignment
can be individually assigned, but more often than not, teachers need to send
multiple materials and it would be easier to open a folder and share.
