Edmodo

=**Edmodo**=


 * Edmodo (www.edmodo.com) is a web based "Blog" or social networking tool that has the look and feel of Facebook, but is closed for only class use. Students can upload pictures of themselves, add comments to replies, but the teacher has exclusive rights to delete comments. There is also a great grading tool that you can grade participation in a Reply. Only students who own the reply can see their grade.**


 * I use this tool for use in my religion course which is helpful for students who don't like to raise their hands or say their opinions or thoughts aloud. By allowing them to write what they are thinking gives them a new outlet.**


 * There are many resources to help get you started and to also have an active community.**
