Edmodo

 


Hello again! 

Here we met again. This time I will introduce another application called Edmodo. This blog contains many applications, but are you curious to learn a new one? Well, let's get started.

As a start, I will tell when I heard about this app. Edmodo is an educational network that aims at providing teachers with tools to help them connect and communicate with their students and parents. Via the Edmodo app or website, teachers can share content, texts, videos, homework, and assignments with their students online. I have known Edmodo since the eighth grade, in the subject of computer technology. At first, it seemed very difficult, but this application makes everything simpler. I once opened it with a student account after our teacher shared the class code with us, but now my account opened differently.

In the first step, we need to open an account. You can choose the option as a student or as a teacher, this is up to you. But to open an account as a student you must have the class code from your teacher. After going through this step, it's time to adjust your profile. Maybe this is not a very important thing for you but I like to have a regular profile. I created my avatar and uploaded it. My profile already looks like in the picture below.



Now is the time to create a class. The option to create a class is located at the top of the page, which is very visible.


Creating an activity is much easier than you might expect. First you have to choose if you want to create a quiz or an assignment. I chose to create a quiz because for me they are the most favorite. My quiz notification looks like this. 


I created a quiz with the theme Representing areas of skill and ability. It contains 3 questions and the duration is up to 60 min.

If you want to join my class, here is my class code : 4sh4hb
