Inform your staff 

Your teachers must now complete the LTI configuration process in their own Remind account. Until they do, they will not be able to access the Remind composer from Schoology.

To make sure all the staff members in your organization set up their Schoology LMS integration, we recommend sending them a districtwide message on Remind with this helpful instruction for configuring their account for Schoology.

*Tip: If you can only use Google Chrome to access Schoology, copy and paste the following links in to separate windows, and switch the Default setting for the SameSite cookies to Disabled: chrome://flags/#same-site-by-default-cookies and chrome://flags/#cookies-without-same-site-must-be-secure. Then log out and back in to your Remind account, and proceed with the steps above to configure your Schoology account.
