In Skolon, as an administrator, you can add your own local tools. This means you can add a link to something you want users to be able to access and use in Skolon, along with other digital school tools and learning materials. Some tools are already included as ready-made templates. Here's how you do it!
Go to the Skoladmin tool from My Apps
Click on Tools in the menu on the left.
Click on Add Tool in the top right-hand corner and select Local Tool.
Select Create a new tool and click on Continue.
Next, you need to enter the link for the tool, upload a picture, and fill in the other relevant details.
The link you enter is the page the user will land on when they click on the tool in their collection. Start by typing http://www. followed by the rest of the address.
Here you can also choose who should have immediate access to the tool. When you're ready, click on Save.
You've reached the final step, where you can share the tool directly with one or more users' collections. You can:
Choose to allocate the tool to a school, classes, or groups under the tab, or to individual users via the tab.
Select the groups or users you want to add the tool for. Click the button to allocate the tool. All groups or users with a tick in the box will get access to the tool, and it will appear in their . You'll also see which groups or users already have the tool.
You can also revoke the allocation for users, groups, or classes here.
