For my Google Group we were assigned to investigate how to use a tool known as Edmodo. Edmodo is a smilar program to OnCourse in the sense that teacher's can communicate with their students. It is a private tool so no one from the public can access it like they can with Twitter. Teachers can post assignments, calendar events, and updates for the class to look at. The teacher creates a group and then invites only their students and/or their parents also. This is cool becasue parents can get involved and know what is going on what is due when even if their children do not bring the information home. This program is a great communication tool and it is effective and efficient for the classroom. In my classroom I would use this site to keep my students updated onn their assignments and post future assignments so that they can get a head start on their other work.
