Mod 4 Free Technology for Teachers


The name of the blog I found is Technology for Teachers and the post is 15 Things Teachers & Students Can Do With Edmodo. I chose the post because I loved three features of the tool and the comments followed the article. The three features were as I commented on the article, I like creating learning groups, connecting with other teachers, and creating digital libraries. And, the comment I loved is
Alicia Kostecki's comment, she says that "My favorite thing about Edmodo is the ability for me to easily share grades and comments with individual students.  In a mostly digital class, with no papers transferring between me and my students, I've struggled with ways to give feedback to students, and Edmodo solves that problem.  Also, just the ability to have students work in one system to get assignments and then turn them in has really eased the burden on them in terms of file management, and eased the burden for me in tracking their files down." I had same difficulties when I teach students in Korea. I needed to grade my students once three month and I really had terrible time, and I felt that grading students is more tired than teaching three or four years old. Edomodo has great features and I would love to apply it to my future classes.
