Edmodo

Edmodo is very similar to Facebook, however it limits students in what they can post. I think it's important to use a tool like this in school so as to avoid students posting inappropriate comments for everyone to see. Edmodo is great for posting assignments, their details and due dates. Instead of a calendar, students can just check Edmodo for upcoming due dates. It's a great way for parents to keep track of what their children are learning in school, what kind of assignments they're working on, and when they should be turning projects in. It's also a great way for parents and teachers to work together to ensure students are working efficiently in school. Edmodo is a also a fast and east way to give feedback on assignments and issue grades.

The layout is strikingly similar to Facebook. It allows students and teachers to post comments, post pictures, and search for teachers. It's a great way for a student to contact a teacher with a question about class. Edmodo also allows students to keep a library of resources which they can contact from anywhere as long as they are signed into their Edmodo accounts. Teachers can also create and distribute quizzes via Edmodo and take polls of their students. This is a wonderful tool for teachers, students, and parents!
