Hey there teachers and administrators!! Are you ready to digitally interact with your colleagues and students?

• Communities are built into edmodo, so teachers can join groups and build their PLN, professional learning networks. Ideally, they can also "stay" in their professional development groups and extend the learning and conversation beyond the limits of the course and project facilitator. Additionally, it models this kind of learning for teachers to use in their own classrooms. Revolution!

Students will all enter the same group code (that you have created and distributed to them). Keep this private, do not distribute electronically!

Tip: usernames must be unique, so save your sanity and create a uniform systemex: soesheatherr OR opesandreab(school, first name and last intial.Going only with names creates a problem, especially with common names, because this is a tool that is used worldwide.

For passwords, use your school and student number in the classex: hec11 or dfes7

Be Internet safe and use only the first initial of the student’s last name!
