Step 1: Go to
www.edmodo.com

under the sign up section.

so you can be added to an
IUSD edmodo account. Your
school code is: m77xd9

and password Email is
optional, but nice if you’d
like to receive notifications
when students post. Title,
first and last name are
required.
Step 5: Click Sign Up!
Step 5: Now you should see the groups and communities you are a part of on the
left menu bar. You can edit your account with a picture if you like under Profile on
the top right.
Step 6: Select Join or Create on the left if you would
like to create a group for your class. Just like you did
with Blackboard. For example: English/Language Arts
7.
Step 7: You will see a collection of posts from fellow
SV teachers, students, and any connections to other
people you have on your wall.
Step 8: To create a group for
your class, select Create
Group on the left.
Step 9: Develop a group
name, set the grade level
and subject area, and click
create.
If you want to set it so that
every post is approved by
you first, select Advanced
Options and click the
appropriation setting.
Step 10: Now you will see a
group code on the upper left
hand part of your profile.
This code is what you give to
your students to allow them
access to the group. Every
code is different, please
don’t use the code on this
training.
Step 11: Students can also
give this code to their
parents so they can access
the account.
Options and Use
The library automatically collects all of your
uploaded documents , videos, or PowerPoint's. This
would be the “Course Documents” of edmodo.
Once in the library you can create folders to
organize your documents, and can sort by either
uploading them to posts, or straight to the library.
Here is where you will see notifications about a
post a student made either direct to your group
page, or in reply to another student. To change
notifications and how you receive them go to
Account Settings at the top right.
Here you can organize what you see on your wall.
By clicking on what posts you see, it will organize
and limit your view. This is helpful if you want to
see what your students have posted directly to you,
or overall. This helps to monitor what they write if
you didn’t select at the beginning to limit student
posts.
To write a reminder like you would
have an announcement on
Blackboard, click note to post. You
can also attach a file, link, or link to
something already in the library.
Select who to send it to if you have
separate groups. You can also send it
to parents, once they sign up.
To only upload an assignment, click
assignment and load it. You can set
the due date here, and it will save in
the calendar.
To have students take a quiz on here
you can create one.
When I started my edmodo group, I
had the students take a poll if they
liked edmodo better than Blackbaord.
It does a live update as students
answer, showing a bar graph for the
answers.
The calendar feature is great for
planning ahead and helping your
students stay organized. Just double
click into the date, enter the
information, and choose the group to
notify.
Yes, there’s an app for that…
