Edmodo in the Classroom

With so many technology tools, gadgets, and toys out there it can be difficult to choose which one(s) you'd like to use. Even more difficult is trying to whittle down to just a few of the essentials. Which makes finding the all-in-one tool a great challenge.

Edmodo may fit the bill for many reasons.

  1. It provides a safe environment for differentiating instruction with one-to-one or whole group communication.
  2. It creates an anytime, anywhere mobile learning environment with smartphone apps and mobile site.
  3. Provides easy access to projects, classwork and school events through assignments, quiz builder, calendar, and gradebook features.

Edmodo also allows teachers to connect with a worldwide network of educators who share the same passion for learning and technology. Teachers can participate in subject area communities to extend professional development opportunities, share success stories and challenges, and grow your Professional Learning Network (PLN).
