Apps and Platforms [module 1.5]

Edmodo was introduced in course module 1. I have downloaded the app and made an account, but I've never used it with students. I find Moodle and Google’s applications very useful and I’ve been working with those. In Moodle there is plenty of opportunities to create different kinds of assignments It also provides many possibilities for assessment and it enables peer review as well. Basically it includes all the functions that Edmodo does and a whole lot more, but of course it is far more complicated to use.

I have used Google Forms in order to gather feedback from students and for creating self evaluation sheets for them. For these purposes Google Forms is one of the best tools. Google Docs is useful for creating and sharing. In Google Docs I can both comment students’ works and see what kind of feedback they have been giving to each other.
