Embedding Studio Boards, Slideshows, and Quizzes with Google Add-ons

Articles in this section

Overview

Within the Add-on, you can access Studio Creations created and/or saved from the My Assessments, Favorites, or My Content tabs of the Add-on. Once embedded in a Google Classroom assignment, students may access and complete the requirements of Studio Creations from directly within Classroom. You can create Studio projects within the Discovery Education platform to share with students. Learn more about Studio.

How do I embed Studio Boards, Slideshows, or Quizzes with Google Add-ons? 

To embed a Discovery Education Studio or Quiz resource into a Google Classroom assignment, follow these steps: 

  1. From the class Stream, navigate to Classwork in the top menu bar and select + Create. Choose Assignment.
  2. In the new assignment, add an Assignment Name and enter assignment instructions.
  3. In the Add-ons menu, select Discovery Education. Step 3.png

  4. You may be prompted to Sign In with Google. If this permission check does not occur for you, and you are unable to see your Discovery Education content, please ensure you have allowed popups on your browser. Choose your account, and accept terms and conditions to proceed. Step 4.png

  5. Navigate to the organizational method you used to store your Studio Creation from the left-hand menu. Step 5.png

  7. If desired, you may check your embedded material before Assigning the content to students. Step 7.png

  8. Click Assign in the top right-hand action menu of your Assignment.

  9. Grade passback: If you have embedded a Studio Quiz, you may see either a score populate the Google Classroom gradebook, or an indicator that teacher grading is required. This depends on whether you have automatically scored questions in the Assessment (like multiple choice), or teacher graded questions (like free response). Grade passback is only available for Studio Creations with Questions embedded in them (“Studio Quizzes”)

As student attempts are recorded, they are accessible in real time within the Discovery Education Assignment Manager. There is no risk of an "un-synced" gradebook while completing this process.
