Before adding links to Keyboarding in SAM activities, make sure your Keyboarding in SAM course is set up the way you want it.
- Add and organize the assigned activities and course materials for your Keyboarding in SAM course.
- Configure assignment settings such as grading, attempts, feedback, time limits, due dates, and grade categories.
SAM activities are worth 100 points. To change this, edit the points for an activity in the Google Classroom gradebook after adding the activity link.
Links created in this way are sometimes called deep links because they are not just web links but allow data to be exchanged between Google Classroom and Keyboarding in SAM.
Google Workspace for Education Plus adds links to Google Classroom assignments, while Google Workspace for Education Fundamentals/Standard adds links directly to the Classwork tab.
If needed, you can reorganize the links in Google Classroom.
