To further
increase my knowledge of incorporation education in the classroom, I decided to
watch a section from the 2011 K12
online conference. The section I watched was on a service located
at www.edmodo.com. Edmodo is a social networking service for
teachers, students, and parents. This
website is a very kid friendly version of Facebook.
There are many pros to using www.edmodo.com in one’s classroom. It is
very user friendly for both teachers and students. On the main page of the site are many how to
videos if one has any questions. Also,
teachers have the ability to grade class work on the website and immediately
send the grade to the students and their parents.
The
cons of the website are very few. Some
are that the website is quite inflexible and does not have many different design
or color schemes. Also, students that do
not have s PC at home will be unable to do any homework assigned on the webpage
I appreciate the clickable links in your post. You've described Edmodo, but you haven't share if you would like to use it in your classroom. What do you think?
