Google Classroom now supports grade category and co-teacher imports from SIS partners
What’s changing
Since last year, educators have been able to easily import students from their student information system (SIS) to Google Classroom using OneRoster. Today, we’re introducing the option for teachers to import their grade categories and co-teachers from their linked SIS.
Once an admin establishes a connection between their district SIS and Google Classroom, teachers can manually link new or existing Google Classroom classes to their SIS, then use the connection to export grades, import students rosters, and now, import grading categories or co-teachers.
Getting started
- Admins: This feature is available for domains connected to a SIS partner–Aspen, Infinite Campus, Skyward SMS and Skyward Qmlativ. To enable the feature, go to http://classroom.google.com/admin. Visit the Help Center to learn more about connecting your Classroom to your SIS.
- End users: If a SIS is connected by your admin, you can import grading categories by going to classroom.google.com > Class > Settings > Grading Categories > Import from SIS. Visit the Help Center to learn more about using Classroom with your SIS and importing data from your Student Information System (SIS).
