Add Links in Schoology to SAM Activities and Resources

After setting up your SAM course, create links from Schoology® to activities or other content in SAM.

Before adding links to SAM activities, make sure your SAM course is set up the way you want it.

  • Add and organize the assigned activities and course materials for your SAM course.
  • Configure assignment settings such as grading, attempts, feedback, time limits, due dates, point values, and grade categories.
Best Practice Use consistent assignment settings and a consistent schedule for due dates and times.

Links created in this way are sometimes called deep links because they are not just web links but allow data to be exchanged between Schoology and SAM.

  1. Open your Schoology course.
  2. On the Materials tab, click Add Materials > Cengage LMS Integration.
  3. Select activities to include in your course.

    By default, when you include a graded activity it is added to the Schoology gradebook.

  4. Click Continue.

The content page displays all the links you have added to your SAM course and activities.

If needed, you can reorganize the links in Schoology.
