Introducing Ubiquity. An experiment into connecting the Web with language. It Doesn’t Have to be This Way You’re writing an email to invite a friend to meet at a local San Francisco restaurant that neither of you has been to. You’d like to include a map. Today, this involves the disjointed tasks of message composition on a web-mail service, mapping the address on a map site, searching for reviews on the restaurant on a search engine, and finally copying all links into the message being composed.

This familiar sequence is an awful lot of clicking, typing, searching, copying, and pasting in order to do a very simple task. And you haven’t even really sent a map or useful reviews—only links to them. This kind of clunky, time-consuming interaction is common on the Web. It’s even worse on mobile devices, where limited capability and fidelity makes this onerous or nearly impossible. Most people do not have an easy way to manage the vast resources of the Web to simplify their task at hand.

Yesterday a Food Technology teacher asked me to show her how to use the library and folders features so she could upload all of her recipes to her Year 11 group.

The question this teacher asked makes sense for many teachers: ‘Can I use this group next year and just enroll new students?’ I once thought that this style of ‘static’ course approach was not possible in edmodo (and really, what did I care since it’s not my style of teaching anyway?) So here’s how: Have your program and resources handy. Now click set members as: Read Only. Selecting ‘read-only’ means that students can’t add posts to edmodo or add comments to posts. Upload your resources in the sequence you would like them to be accessed by your students. Drops. How to Use Dropbox as a Killer Collaborative Work Tool - Lifehacker.
