Log In with Google SSO

Districts that use Google-based email addresses may choose to use Google Single Sign-On (SSO) for logging in. This allows the user to log in to Otus using the G-button without needing to type in a user name and password each time. It also establishes a connection between Google and Otus; users can use documents and files in their Google Drive with assessments, lessons, class board posts, and many other areas.


Attach Resources from Your Google Drive

Teachers and students have direct access to their individual Google Drive to attach and share resources in the Otus modules listed below.

❗ Google Drive integration is only available for educators and students who have district Google accounts and use Google, ClassLink, or Clever to sign in to Otus.

*Rubric assessments offer an additional enhancements for Google Docs and Slides, such as creating an individual copy for each student. For more information, see the section below!
