Edmodo

What do you like best?

It is fast, convenient and not a hassle to use to its full potential. I use it as a means to communicate with my students during anytime of the day and whenever I want. I can do this because Edmodo notifies the guardians of my students to ask them to check the new discussion to find out what is going on in the virtual classroom. In the discussion area, students can talk amongst themselves and I can talk to them individually or in a group. The students can quickly generate and share ideas using points of important information from the lessons I teach.

What do you dislike?

The mobile version of Edmodo is currently lacking in what the desktop version provides. The accessibility goes down, almost if not all features are practically unusable. I can't communicate with students on the go as the mobile version does not let me see discussions nor comment.

Recommendations to others considering the product:

It is an average learning management software and an excellent way to communicate with students through discussions. I recommend that you use something else for learning and use this for discussing things with students after all the lessons on you schedule has been completed. Edmodo is simply a beneficial addition to your online teaching technique.

What problems are you solving with the product? What benefits have you realized?

Edmodo is beneficial in my life as a teacher because it keeps me very well organized. I can easily communicate with students of all my classes and hand out assignments without being confused. Aside from communicating in discussions, I can help those who need it during both school time and after school.
