EDMODO

Wow! I love this useful website. It is so easy to attach movie files and it's quick! I found out that video clips that I downloaded can be uploaded easier using schooltube, an app within the website. Aside from the fact that there are copyrights laws that I have to abide, my next step is to use schooltube and teachertube before youtube for video clips. Plus, embedding it isn't a problem to me. The website can also be in 5 different languages, one is Spanish, which is helpful to my newcomers.

While creating their iMovies, my students enjoyed it. The purpose is to speak and to speak clearly. They practiced before recording and really enjoyed going through the process. Today, we uploaded the files on edmodo where I can download and listen to them without a problem. Plus, Edmodo also gives the options for students to respond what they feel while turning in assignments. It's great!

Without having to go to Facebook or using Facebook per se, I can ensure that they are not distracted.
