Many districts, especially those that use Google-based email addresses, will 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. Click here.

❗ If you are the co-teacher of a class, the main teacher must login with Google SSO at least once in order to enable the features of the integration.
