A great, but often overlooked, platform for connecting with other educators is Edmodo.
What is Edmodo?
Edmodo - edmodo.com - is a FREE 'Social Networking' environment for students, parents and teachers. It provides a safe and easy way for your class to connect and collaborate, share content, and access homework, grades and school notices. In fact, many schools are ditching their VLEs in preference to Edmodo.
Teachers and students can post messages, discuss topics, assign and grade work. Edmodo also allows you to share digital content such as links, pictures, videos, documents etc. Edmodo is very similar, in layout and functionality, to Facebook. This makes it immediately appealing to students.
