Edmodo: The Classroom Hub for Project-Based Learning FRONT ROW SEAT Edmodo is becoming an indispensable tool in many classrooms engaged in project based learning, to help with project management and assessment. There are some great tools in Edmodo. Management Tools We can create small groups within a larger group – so each team could have their own group. The Library allows us to share links and documents with students. The latest version of Edmodo has “backpacks” where students can organize and store their own resource materials. The calendar allows the teacher to lay out the steps and due dates. Feedback and Assessment Teachers can make assignments with due dates, and students can submit their work as pdf or word documents. Direct posts allow students to ask their teacher – but not one another – questions. Edmodo also has polls, which allow us to ask questions of students to get feedback. By posting a request on the group’s wall for reflection and feedback from students we can get lots of participation. Professional Development
HDFC BANK IFSC CODES oppiminen ja työ 2.0 | Miksi Moodle on vanhanaikainen? Oppimisalustoista (LMS) kohti henkilökohtaisia oppimisympäristöjä (PLE). ”Moodle oli “moderni” oppimisympäristö vuosituhannen vaihteessa. Nyt se on yhtä moderni kuin vuoden 2000 kännykkä.” – Sosiaalisen median asiantuntija Harto Pönkä Oppimisalustoja (Learning management system = LMS) kuten Moodle alettiin kehittää 1990-luvulla, ja niiden taustalla oleva käyttöfilosofia on jäänne tältä ajalta. Digitaaliset järjestelmät nähtiin tuolloin kätevänä paikkana varastoida dokumentteja, eikä vuorovaikutteisia web 2.0 -välineitä juuri ollut. Vuorovaikutus on LMS -järjestelmissä kankeaa Useimmiten oppimisalustoja käytetään oppimateriaalien ja dokumenttien säilömiseen, kursseille ilmoittautumisesen, tehtävien antamiseen ja palautukseen, arvosanojen jakamiseen ja opetuksen hallinnollisiin tehtäviin. Ylhäältäpäin saneltu järjestelmä ei tue käyttäjien yksilöllisyyttä Keskeinen ongelma Mooden kaltaisissa oppimisalustoissa on, että ne ovat instituution ylhäältä säätelemiä suljettuja järjestelmiä.

The GNU Operating System Advantages of WordPress over Moodle as an LMS Open-source software has ushered in a new era of possibilities in the learning space. For a while now, Moodle has been the world’s most popular open-source learning management system. It has enabled organizations of all sizes to deliver and track learning to (likely) millions of people across the globe. Not too long ago, I met Patrick Selby from On Learning Point. What are the advantages of using WordPress over Moodle? There are several advantages to using WordPress over Moodle but before we dive in let’s take a look at the history of WordPress versus Moodle. Certain technologies were not available when they were architecting Moodle, although Moodle has come a long way in getting plugins installed and installations and upgrades. While both are content management systems, Moodle has added features that allows for tracking and scoring of content, something that WordPress was unable to do until the LearnDash project started. Who would use WordPress instead of using a Moodle site? Conclusion
