Vivo Rewards launches Single Sign On feature to give students easy access to rewards through the Frog Learning Platform
The SSO feature will provide students with easy access to both the Vivo Rewards and Frog platforms.
- (1888PressRelease) July 27, 2011 - Online rewards system, Vivo Rewards (www.vivomiles.com) and its partner, learning platform provider, Frog, have announced the launch of a Single Sign On (SSO) feature, offering both teachers and students integrated access to each award-winning system and eradicating the need for multiple log-ins. With 20 percent of UK secondary schools using Frog as their learning platform of choice, the partnership will provide ease of use for thousands of pupils that are already using both systems.
Now, with the introduction of SSO, teachers and pupils can easily access both Frog and Vivo Rewards using a single user name and password. Widgets within the Frog learning platform enables teachers and pupils to see details of their Vivo Rewards account on their homepage, without having to log in again using separate user names and passwords that can easily be confused or forgotten.
Integration with the Frog learning platform now means that teachers are continually reminded of any remaining Vivos that they have to allocate to students, promoting best use of the rewards system. Pupils are also reminded of their achievements and have continued motivation to succeed whilst saving for a sought after item from the Vivo store! The easy access also means that pupils logging on to Frog to spend their Vivos are alerted to aspects of the learning platform that they might not previously been familiar with, encouraging them to use the platform to its full extent.
Adrian Burt, Managing Director of Vivo Rewards, explains: "Our partnership with Frog has enabled Vivo Rewards to push boundaries and improve the service we offer. The single sign-on provides students and teachers with easy access to both systems, enabling students and teachers to take full advantage of what each service has to offer.
"Vivo Rewards and Frog are dedicated to providing schools with forward-thinking technologies to engage and motivate pupils to succeed. The SSO feature reflects the contemporary nature of both companies and recognises the partnership's dedication to fulfilling the needs of schools today, whilst ensuring that schools use learning technologies to their maximum benefit."
Vivo Rewards is now being used in 10 percent of secondary schools in the UK and the launch of SSO will build on the company's success since launching in 2008 by bringing its service to the attention of schools that are already using Frog.
Adrian Burt continues: "Vivo Rewards and Frog have shared values. We are both creative and passionate about schools and the ways that online technologies can help them. As a result of the partnership and the introduction of SSO, schools can now see how our online rewards system can work alongside the platform they already have in place to benefit their school."
Adrian Bantin, Partner Manager at Frog, adds: "We are delighted about the launch of the SSO feature which cements our partnership with Vivo Rewards and our shared dedication to providing schools with the best possible services. The SSO will make access to each platform much easier for students and teachers, whilst extending learning opportunities and encouraging a rewards culture."
