Although Edmodo has been mentioned before, I felt it was worth showcasing again because of new features it has added. If you didn't know, Edmodo is a social networking site that is private. It is a great way for your students to communicate with people all over the world or even if it is just across town with another group. You can join Edmodo Communities to talk to teachers to share ideas or work with them to do an Edmodo lesson. You can create assignments and have students work on them during class. You can even upload short movies so if a student is absent they can watch the video and complete the work needed. Edmodo is a great social networking tool that helps incorporate the technology standards required by our students. Ask your Friendly ITRT for ideas or help getting your students involved with Edmodo.
I love Edmodo and use it at night for homework help. All my students have a login and can ask me questions from 5:30-7:00 at night and are allowed to help each other.
