Set Up ClassLink Integration
Plan for a successful ClassLink integration by asking yourself the following questions and providing the answers to Learning Ally.
Overview
If you would like to integrate your school/district with ClassLink, please contact customercare@LearningAlly.org and provide answers to the below questions:
- Who will be the data manager/point of contact for receiving communications related to the integration?This is often the ClassLink Administrator for the district/school.
- What is your communication preference (e.g., email, phone, Zoom call)?
- How will students be determined as eligible? (Recommended) All students will be added to the data share and educators will confirm a student’s eligibility within the Educator Portal.
- A ClassLink metadata field will be used to identify a student as eligible as part of the data share. The metadata field will indicate whether a student is RD (reading deficit), BVI (blind/visually impaired), or OPD (other physical disability), or simply mark the student as “True.” Please share the name of the metadata field that will be used so that we can ensure we are mapping to the correct field.
Once you have provided these answers to Learning Ally, we can move on to the next step! A member of our integration team will reach out to you to walk through next steps.
Note
The audiobook solution is designed for students with a reading deficit who struggle with:
- Decoding
- Fluency
- Comprehension
Any educator (or other professional) who has experience observing students with a reading deficit, blindness or visual impairment, or physical disability can make the determination of eligibility.
Automatic Rostering and SSO Setup Process
1.) Reach out to customercare@LearningAlly.org to begin the integration process. Provide them with answers to the integration questions listed above.
2.) Share your Roster Server tenant with Learning Ally.
3.) Once the data is shared, we will review the list of schools to confirm that they align with the enrolled schools within our Educator Portal.
4.) Next, we start to set up the account and validate the data manually.
- If there are records that do not pass validation, Learning Ally will work with you to review the data and revalidate.
- Educators and students that pass the validation will be created/updated within the Educator Portal.
5.) Once the integration is finalized, Learning Ally will send a notification to the data manager and main point of contact.
6.) The data manager is now ready to test/confirm educator and student accounts and adjust the app sharing permissions.
7.) Once the integration is launched, Learning Ally will run the auto sync daily.
