Frequently Asked Questions
As a teacher, I am seeing an error when I click the link to open the app in Schoology.
Be sure…
- You’re logged into Schoology as a Teacher (not an administrator)
- That you are using the email address that we have on file for your RamseyClassroom account
- You copied the full consumer key and secret (no spaces)

I’ve setup the app in Schoology, but I don’t see any students in my Ramsey Classroom gradebook.
Students are added to the gradebook after they access the app through Schoology. Once a student has accessed Ramsey Classroom through Schoology for the first time, you’ll see their name populate in your gradebook.
Do you offer gradebook passback with Schoology?
Gradebook passback is only available with Thin Common Cartridge, currently in Beta. Learn more here.
