The Top 3 Benefits of Integrating Naviance with Schoology Learning

Interoperability across digital platforms can help save precious time. For educators, whose every minute with students matters, integrated tech tools are particularly valuable. They help juggle the competing demands of curricular content, district or state mandates, social and emotional learning (SEL), and whole-child instruction.  

PowerSchool’s leading K-12 learning management system Schoology Learning now integrates with PowerSchool Naviance CCLR, our college, career, and life readiness (CCLR) platform. Together, Naviance and Schoology Learning create a smoother user experience for educators, school staff, and students. Here are the top three benefits of adding Naviance to Schoology Learning.  

1. Easy access to the research-backed CCLR curriculum 

The Naviance CCLR Curriculum is an interactive, self-paced learning experience containing lessons on SEL, financial aid, interpersonal skills, college research, and career exploration. The lessons are also available in Schoology Learning, making it easy for both teachers and students to access the learning assignments from one central location.  

With modules on overcoming obstacles, planning for the future, and exploring postsecondary options, the curriculum helps students think “big picture.” It also hones their strengths and passions, connecting those interests with potential education and career paths. Educators can draw from the curriculum to connect the material with their own subject matter expertise.  

2. Improved collaboration and accountability  

Preparing students for future success isn’t a task only for the school counselors. All educators are responsible for their students’ postsecondary preparedness.  

With this integration, counselors and teachers can manage and assign lessons to students from one interface, helping to streamline workflow. The integration also supports the dual efforts of teachers and counselors in teaching CCLR skills to ensure that they share their responsibilities equally.  

Educators can easily incorporate critical readiness and planning activities into classroom work. The Naviance CCLR Curriculum can be tailored to a specific grade level or subject area.  

3. Democratized college and career knowledge 

Knowledge is power. Students gain knowledge about postsecondary paths and financial resources at school. Due to staffing shortages or time constraints, not every school can meet and support every student’s college, career, and life readiness needs. Giving teachers and students access to the Naviance CCLR lessons helps to ensure that fewer students are overlooked. 

Integrating Naviance with Schoology Learning supports both staff and students in achieving the shared goal of postsecondary preparedness. Schools and districts can feel confident knowing they’ve set their students on the right path.
