Studies Weekly Online content can be embedded in both Canvas and Schoology LMSs using deep linking. Deep linking uses a hyperlink to connect the user directly to a piece of web content, like a specific Studies Weekly article. To access deep linking, a paid Root Administrator must first set it up. Contact your administrator or district IT for help.
From their LMS, teachers should click the link that starts the Deeplink Selection Mode. This sends an LTI message that informs Studies Weekly that teachers are entering our site with the intent of choosing an article or other learning material to embed in the LMS classroom as a deep link.
From there, Studies Weekly Online should launch. Adjust the window size to ensure visibility, then navigate to the content you want to share. All content, including Customized Content, Explore More Media, and Search results, can be shared with deep linking. Teachers will NOT be able to see the Teacher Edition and Printables when they are in Deeplink Selection mode.
On the desired content page, select Click to Share Deeplink.
