BrainHoney to Schoology - It Can Be Done!

Back in August of 2016,  it was announced that our outdated BrainHoney Learning Management System, or LMS, will be laid to rest at the conclusion of this school year, at least in our Vermilion schools.  Alternative programs suggested at the time to help make the transition a gradual process included Google Classroom (true, it's not a fully fledged LMS yet, but makes work flow a breeze), Schoology, a platform similar in appearance to BrainHoney, and Edmodo, an LMS that looks more like a social networking site.

Good news!  Thanks to the district *team that attended the annual Ohio Education Technology Conference (OETC) back in mid-February, we have learned that there is a way to directly transfer BrainHoney files into Schoology.  Watch the following tutorial to see how to export a BrainHoney course and import that course into Schoology.



*The 2017 OETC team included Sheila Greene, 3rd grade intervention specialist, Lisa Murray, 3rd grade math teacher, Brian Hayes, elementary STEM teacher, Katie Cseh, grades 1-3 community classroom teacher, Gabriel Caudill, 7th grade science teacher, Lori Ozmun, grades 4-7 intervention specialist, and Mark Kuhnle, high school Spanish teacher.  Thank you for bringing back valuable information!
