Some online curriculum sites such as McGraw Hill (Everyday Math and Wonders), Savvas, Discovery Education, etc. can sometimes be impacted by the privacy settings on your device. If a student is having difficulty loading content from these sites on their personal device, they may need to change the cookie and pop-up settings on their browser. Teachers may also need to adjust these settings.
World Book, PebbleGo, and Discovery Education have a general district auto-log in. If a student or teacher is having trouble accessing embedded content for these sites, try clicking on the matching title of the online curriculum site (World Book/PebbleGo/and Discovery Education) from the left side bar of the Course. After that opens, go back to the Schoology Course and click on 'My Activities' (grades preschool-5)/Materials' (grades 6-12). Go back into the embedded content having difficulty loading. It should load now.
