Edmodo

I chose to review []. To view my site you will need to register as a student using the code, ngn9di. You do not need an e-mail, just your name. Then you will be able to view my "classroom's" page, Dugan's Patriots. I picked this site because it seems like a basic blackboard. I can manage different classes without ever leaving my page. I don't have to click on different tabs to get to different menus. There are so many features that I think will really help me when I begin teaching. There is a calendar to make sure the students all know due dates and events. There is also a gradebook, although I do not know about the security of the site. I would have to look into that more before I use it. Teachers can post assignments, notes, alerts, links, etc. using Edmodo. Students can change their settings to be notified of updates via Twitter or their cell phones. Hopefully in the future they will add Facebook to that list to increase the chances of students getting the updates. I think this feature will allow students to have greater access to the class outside of normal school hours. The students can also communicate with each other using Edmodo.
