SIS Integration - Seamless Communication
Make duplicate data entry a thing of the past - get the most out of your LMS by connecting it with your Student Information System. Your SIS is your centralized repository for all student related information and your LMS is the home for all course related materials, so doesn't it seem necessary for the two systems to communicate? No one is better suited to link these two systems than the experts at eThink Education, who have intimate knowledge of both your SIS and LMS systems.
eThink Education offers 3 essential real-time integrations between your SIS and your LMS:
Registration Integration
- Real-time link between registration in your SIS and courses available in your LMS
- Students automatically added to courses in your LMS when they register in your SIS and removed when they drop or withdraw
- All courses automatically created in your LMS with customized naming convention
- Courses created automatically but faculty member chooses when to reveal it to students
- Course categories created automatically by Year/Term or by Department for one-click course archiving
- Special accommodations for cross-listed courses in SIS to ease instructor use
Course Attendance Integration
- Real-time link between attendance records in your LMS and attendance records in your SIS
- Faculty input attendance in the same LMS interface they use daily for coursework
- Ability to record a Last Attend Date for Financial Aid eligibility tracking
Gradebook Integration
- Faculty maintain one Gradebook - for all course-related grades - assignments, quizzes, mid-term, and final grades
- Student grade preferences such as Letter Grade or Pass/Fail are passed seamlessly between the 2 systems
- Drop-down list boxes in the LMS ensure faculty select only valid grades for submission to SIS
- Grade submission time period into the SIS is controlled by the Registrar
The time has come when every course is expected to have an online presence, regardless of whether it is taught face-to-face, in a blended format, or fully online. Automated integrations for areas such as registration, attendance, and grading are critical to meeting this expectation. At eThink, we are experts on both your SIS and your LMS. No one is better suited to link the two than us!
