I realize one of the purposes of Edmodo is interactivity. The cons: As much as I LOVE Edmodo there is a few things I could do without. The best part is it gives an awesome report. The grades will automatically appear the gradebook. Then you have to go back and grade the rest. It will grade all the objective questions for you. You can use True/False, Multiple Choice, Fill in the Blank, Essay, etc. Informal assessments would be an option too, maybe even a open note quiz. For example instead of a handout, they could answer questions on the quiz. However, the quiz feature can be used in other ways. The Internet is available to them because Edmodo is online. Students can look at each other’s computer or share answers. I personally would not use Edmodo to give a real quiz simply because it’s not as secure. Quiz: I used the quiz as a practice quiz. I cut out the names of the students for privacy issues but this is what it looks like. I can preview you and even mark incorrect answers and add comments.

I like this because I don’t have to download the document to grade it. It will also allow you to filter the assignment by turned in, not turned in and graded. When you score it ,it will appear on your Edmodo gradebook and the students will see their grade. Gradebook:You can grade the assignment on Edmodo as well. They click it and then attach it similar to an email. On the teacher Edmodo there is a Turned in button that says how many students have turned in the assignment On the student Edmodo the button is located in the same spot but it says Turn In. The students and you can preview the assignment or it can be downloaded. When you post an assignment on Edmodo you can add a tag like I did that says Minor. Note is the equivalent to a wall post on Facebook. By the way this is where you pick what you want to post. I’ve used this once so far:Īssignments: Posting assignments is as easy as attaching a document to an email. I have 62 students and only 53 took the poll. It’s completely anonymous so students will not be embarrassed by their answer but on the same note you won’t know who did not answer. You can ask them something related to the day’s lesson and see how they do. If you have iPads or are in a lab or your school allows personal devices then you could do this or have them answer the poll from home. My classroom is a computer lab so I can use the poll as an exit slip. The Poll is awesome to gauge student knowledge. When student’s go on the calendar they only see their classes so the colors don’t matter as much to them. It’s color coordinated to the group colors. If you post an assignment on Edmodo the due date will automatically appear on the calendar.
The calendar is one of my favorite features. If you notice on the image above, I sent messages to 2nd period or to both 2nd and 7th. You can share 1 post with another group or you can send it to as many of your groups as you would like. It takes less than a minute to post on there.
For example, the two classes in red are Computer Apps.Įdmodo is very fast. I color coordinated the classes so that I can send the same assignment or message to them at once. Since I teach different sections of the same class I couldn’t use the course name. I chose to use my last name because other teachers are also using Edmodo and it’s easier with my name in there for them to find my class. How I’m using it? I use it in all 5 classes that I teach. My school just did a PD on it, so now I’m connected to our school’s group and the teachers I work with. There are so many networking opportunities on it as well. I learned about Three Ring on there, which I can’t wait to try. other teachers are posting is very useful. I joined groups related to my content area and some of the info. I’ve been using Edmodo for roughly a month now.
