For this ILP I decided to try and use Edmodo to create a fictitious learning environment. I set this as if I was a first year teacher teaching AP Literature to high school seniors. There isn't much on my Edmodo page, but I did upload a syllabus, post notes, and enter in assignments. In order to view my page just go this site. Once you are at the site click "Join a group" on the right hand corner of the screen and type in this code:
vp599r
It will prompt you to login with Google or create an account and then you'll be able to view my page.
This will lead you to my Edmodo page. I have to admit, using Edmodo was pretty easy and self explanatory and I know I could have made such an amazing web page had I known more about how to properly use the tool. I like the fact that I can create a learning environment online and have a quick place for all my students to see the assignments and the syllabus. I will say that if my school doesn't have Blackboard or any other online tool, I will be using Edmodo to distribute assignments. It is so easy to use and students can actually post comments on your page or email you directly to this site. I believe students can even turn in assignments( though I confess I have no idea how to open that up to them). I think this is a really cool system that more of you should check out.
