Ideas for Using Edmodo….Let’s Create a List Together!
Voice of the Library with Shannon Yesterday was the end of the school year for Van Meter. The seniors already graduated and are onto the next chapter in their lives. The kids at school were happy and excited as they talked about their summer plans. They took photos with their friends throughout the day, signed [...]
View from the District: Spreading the Word
More words of wisdom from Andy McKiel! As we proceed with our district implementation of Edmodo, I’m still trying to wrap my head around the BEST way to get as many teachers on board as possible. I mentioned in one of my very first blog posts that we didn’t want to force our district teachers to [...]

Keeping busy parents ‘in the loop’
Do-it-Yourself Teaching with Bianca! Parents today are busy, there’s no denying it. Often parents work long hours, returning home to their children tired, stressed and grumpy. The dinner needs to be cooked, the house tidied and the washing done. There is little time to sit down and chat with the kids about homework and how [...]
A Model For Student Communication and Collaboration
Student PLNs with Liz! ** Getting my students to effectively collaborate and work in teams has proven to be a constant challenge. Of course many of them love working with their friends, sharing the workload, and having a chance to be social…but I would argue that this doesn’t necessarily constitute effective collaboration. Because of the [...]
Web 2.0: Edmodians of the Week – Creating an Edmodo RSS feed
Web 2.0 with Bret! ** Unfortunately, I do not have a single “Edmodian of the Week” today. It’s not that there aren’t people to choose from, the problem is that there are too many of you doing too many amazing things to pick just one to end the year. So what I wanted to do [...]
Edmodo: The Perfect Place For Kids To Connect This Summer
Voice of the Library with Shannon ** Summer break will be here for me in just five days. Even though there are a couple of months that we are not in school with our students, there are so many ways now that we can stay connected with them during the summertime. We can use Twitter, Facebook, [...]
Why use Edmodo with students? (Your feedback requested!)
A View from the District with Andy McKiel: Over the last couple of weeks, I’ve seen and heard the buzz everywhere – blog posts, tweets & Edmodo communities are chock-full of mentions of the upcoming summer holidays. While I, too, am counting down the days until the end of the 2010/2011 school year, my excitement [...]
PBL + Edmodo = Awesome
Friday with Bianca! ** I find myself sitting in a lecture by philosopher David Chalmers (it’s titled ‘The Singularity: A Philosophical Analysis’) and realise that once again I am behind in writing my weekly post for edmodo – where do the hours go?! The layout of the room (a university lecture theatre) contradicts the focus [...]
Student PLNs: Students As Resources
Thursday with Liz! ** When I first introduced my students to Edmodo, I really didn’t know what would happen. I knew that Edmodo had the potential to do great things for my class and my students, but I didn’t want it to be just another web 2.0 tool. My goal was to motivate my students [...]
