The MyVRSpot Assignments integration with Schoology allows you to embed SmartSpot quizzes and use grade passback with the results within Schoology.

Using the App

Adding a SmartSpot Quiz as a Material

  1. Click on the Add Materials dropdown button and select Add File/Link/External Tool.
  2. Select External Tool.
  3. Change the Tool Provider dropdown to MyVRSpot Assignment and give your quiz a title.
  4. In a new tab, navigate to your SmartSpot quizzes. Click the Link icon (chain) to the right of the quiz you’d like to use and copy the LTI External Tool Link.
  5. Return to your Schoology tab and paste the link into the URL field. Leave the Consumer Key and Shared Secret blank.
  6. Check the Enable Grading checkbox and choose your options within.
  7. Click Submit when you’re finished.

Grading a Quiz

If your quiz doesn’t contain any open answer questions, it will be automatically graded as soon as your student submits their quiz. This means that the grade will show up within your gradebook in Schoology without you having to lift a finger. However, if your quiz does contain open answer questions, read on to see how those are handled.

Grading a Quiz with Open Answers

Once a quiz has been submitted, you can grade it within MyVRSpot like normal, or you can grade it within Schoology.

  1. Navigate to your quiz on your list of materials within your course.
  2. Click on the Grade Quiz/View Results button in the upper left.
  3. Click on the Grade button to the right of the submission you’d like to grade. (If you need to delete a quiz submission instead, click on the Delete Result button. If a student navigated away from their quiz before submitting, click on the Force Grade button to grab whatever answers they completed.)
  4. Once finished, click Submit. It will automatically be added to your Schoology gradebook.
