PowerBuddy for Learning student chat translation support

Student chat translation support will be available for paid PowerBuddy for Learning customers. Administrators don’t need to configure any PowerBuddy settings. Teachers or course administrators manage who can update their language.

Teachers:

  • Manage the option that allows students to use the language selector in PowerBuddy.

  • To turn on the language selector, navigate to the PowerBuddy options and then click to activate the language selector option.

Students:

  • The PowerBuddy language is set to match the Schoology language

    • For example, if Schoology is set to Spanish, then PowerBuddy will initially respond in Spanish.

  • Students can change the language using the language selector.

  • PowerBuddy will begin using the selected language during the next prompt, and suggestions will be translated to the chosen language.

  • The language selection will persist for a few PowerBuddy sessions to avoid having to update multiple times.

PowerBuddy chat supports French, but Schoology does not. Students can change the PowerBuddy chat language to French, and PowerBuddy will respond in French. However, Schoology will remain in English, including the PowerBuddy chat modal and disclaimer.
