PhD Science in Sync has two main sections: Resources and Assignments. You can access these sections by clicking on the icons on the left-hand side of the screen. The three horizontal lines in the top left corner also expands the left side menu.
Resources
When you first log in to in Sync, you will see the Resources screen. Resources is a library of all the components of in Sync, including user guides, Learn Anywhere Plans, daily videos, PDFs, and more.
On the in Sync platform, teachers may have access to content for multiple curricula (Eureka Math, Wit & Wisdom, PhD Science) and grade levels. Use the Select curriculum dropdown to select a curriculum and/or use the Select grade-level dropdown to select the desired grade-level.
Assignments
Assignments displays details of all current and past assignments. Use the drop-down menus to filter your search. You can view specific subjects, sections, and statuses (active, closed, or both).
For more information, see Create and Complete Assignments.
Announcements & Help Center
The megaphone icon that appears in the top right corner of your screen is the Announcements & Help Center button. This sends you to the Great Minds Digital Support page to access the Help Center and highlights what’s new within Great Minds digital tools.
