I’ve been teaching using, essentially, a blended learning model since 2006. This means that much of what I do in the classroom is supported by online tools. I’ve used Wikispaces, Moodle, and, most recently, Edmodo to varying degrees of success.

Edmodo has recently begun a series of webinars called “Teacher’s Lounge” and I spent a small chunk of my afternoon watching this one on formative assessment using Edmodo. I really like the way she uses the quiz feature for more than just a basic quiz assessment. I’m going to work on expanding my existing (and not great) comprehension quizzes for AP Language for next year.
