Creating Online Lessons in SchoolMate:<\/span><\/h2>\n

SchoolMate is able to link with four online platforms where your online lessons can take place: Google Meets, Microsoft Teams, Zoom and LearnCube<\/span><\/a><\/span>\u00a0a company which offers an online lesson platform. With the first two you add the meeting link to the lessons. With Zoom and LearnCube there is a little more to do.<\/p>\n

[vc_message]There is a tutorial on how to link your SchoolMate account to LearnCube<\/span> here<\/span><\/a><\/span> and to Zoom<\/span> here<\/a><\/span><\/span>.[\/vc_message]<\/p>\n

Regardless of the meeting platform you are using, the first thing you need to do is create the lessons; there are tutorials on how to create lessons here<\/a><\/span>.\u00a0<\/a><\/span>The main thing is that after adding the day, time and teacher on the \u00abBasic Information\u00bb card you go to the \u00abCustom settings\u00bb and click \u00abLesson available on-line\u00bb.<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Generally, you do not need to put anything here; all the standard information is on the Basic Information card. The information here is for non-standard lessons, i.e. they do not take place weekly, they have different start and finish dates to the group dates.<\/li>\n
  2. Click \u00abLesson available on-line\u00bb.<\/li>\n
  3. Once you click \u00abLesson available on-line\u00bb, this select box will appear. If your lessons will take place on Google Meets or Microsoft Teams, select \u00abMeeting Link\u00bb from the drop-down and enter the meeting link in the box that appears.<\/li>\n
  4. Click \u00abSave & Close\u00bb.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
