Edmodo is a social network specialized for education,
specifically student-teacher interaction with an option for parents to review
the progress of their children at school. LinkedIn’s, the professional
networking site’s founder Reid Hoffman sees a great future for a social network
that enhances the school learning experience and has invested in the start up
venture.
The new home screen puts a feed of
your students' activity in the right hand column, puts links to all of your
courses in the left hand column, and puts tabs to access and manage courses at
the top of your center column. This is just like what I see when I log in to
manage my Facebook page.
Edmodo's new insights tab lets you
quickly see how your students are reacting to the content that you post for
them. You can also use the insights tab to post feedback to your students.
Edmodo claims that schools can create a paperless classroom
in 2013 with-
Edmodo Groups - Create, share, and manage class
content. Students can submit homework, assignments, quizzes and more to you
through Edmodo.
Edmodo Planner - Stay organized with a calendar
and task list. When you create an assignment, quiz, or event, the due date
automatically shows up on your students' planners.
Edmodo Progress - Manage grading, reporting, and
student progress. Your students' grades are automatically entered when you
grade quizzes and assignments.

the school learning experience from my earlier post.
