Shared Tags

A couple weeks ago we quietly launched a simple new feature on Edmodo, that was the direct result of teacher input. Shared Tags enable you as a teacher to selectively share certain tags with your students.

To share a tag, first click the “Manage” link in the upper-right of the Tags Panel.

This will take you to the Tag Management screen, where you can mark any of your tags as “Shared.”

Any student that belongs to a group you created will instantly have access to the shared tag, using the “Shared” tab that will appear in their Tags panel.

Only teachers are able to share tags. Let us know what you think in the comments, or if you have already started using Shared Tags. Thanks again to our users, for providing us with another great feature idea. Keep them coming…and stay tuned for some very exciting new features coming soon.

It would be even better if students could share tags with one another/me. As someone who wants to use this site for student blogging, I would love to be able to search student posts via tags.

I Love tags and being able to share them with students will make certain files and resources easier for them to find!!
