New Features & Updates

We added the ability for teachers to access, preview, and add Performance Matters Assessments to their Schoology courses.
Students can also access these assessments just as easily as they can with Course Assessments.
This addition offers easier access and a seamless experience for instructors and students so that Performance Matters and Schoology work better together.
