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, and grade categories.
SAM activities are worth 100 points. To change this, edit the points for an activity in the Schoology 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 Schoology and SAM.
Open your Schoology course.
On the Materials tab, click Add Materials › Cengage LMS Integration.
Click Select Content and select activities to include in your class.
Graded activities that have already been added are marked
. To avoid duplicate activity links and gradebook columns, do not import the same activity twice.If needed, change gradebook syncing for specific activities.
By default, when you include a graded activity it is added to the Schoology gradebook.
To remove an activity from the gradebook, clear Add to Gradebook.
To sync an activity to the gradebook without creating an activity link, first select Add to Gradebook and then clear the Add to Course checkbox on the left.
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.
