Why You Should Give Edmodo a Try

Edmodo's Update Looks More Like Facebook!

A while back, I did a posting about 35 Social Networking Programs Other Than Facebook and Twitter. The program that still stands out as the best is Edmodo, which recently upgraded its appearance. It now looks even more like Facebook, and your students will enjoy using it for that reason alone. Edmodo offers you and your class a private social network, where you can have class discussions or message students privately. 

 

I love Edmodo's version of the "like" button in Facebook:

 

 If you haven't looked at Edmodo, you're missing a really wonderful free program.

Edmodo's Digital Citizenship Posters

Available in 6 languages, Edmodo has provided free posters on digital citizenship for download. There are 2 sizes: 8.5 x 11 and 11 x 17, both in color and black and white. It's a nice addition to your computer lab or classroom. I will add this to the FREE page on this blog.

Thanks to Richard Byrne of Free Technology for Teachers for the info.

Students Love My Big Campus' Facebook Interface

The first time I saw Edmodo, I knew that students would find it "cool". That's because the interface looks like Facebook, right down to the color choices. Several teachers in our school have been using Edmodo with great success, enjoying the safe web environment. Enter My Big Campus, an online program which also looks like Facebook, and in a safe environment allows students to store files, (say goodbye to the school's server) monitor assignments and due dates, interact with their peers in class and collaborate. They can also access normally blocked videos. Teachers can create quizzes, create blogs, post videos and more. All of this is within the My Big Campus interface.If you have been using My Big Campus, please share your experience with everyone by posting. I'm interested in seeing how it compares to Edmodo.
