Edmodo and Google Users...
I guess I am a bit behind in the game because I just realized you can access your Google docs in Edmodo now. This new feature came about in March and allows you to Sync your Google Docs (Drive) with your Edmodo Library. That means you can share documents with your Edmodo groups and students can easily turn-in assignments completed via Google Docs.
Find the instructions to do this at the Edomod Help site. FYI all users will need to link their Google Docs account with Edmodo before and sharing of docs with users or groups takes place.
Wondering how I heard about this new feature of Edmodo??? Maybe not but here's the power of my PLN...
I found this blog (while I was browsing Pinterest one evening). It's by a Digital Learning Coordinator in the Chicago Public Schools > Teaching like it's 2999 . I first pinned her idea to my "learn" Pinterest board and then visited her blog and found that what the author, Jennie Magiera, blogged about was so connected to what I do so I added it to my Google Reader.
One day this week Google Reader showed that the author had posted something new to her blog called More Ideas to Googleize Your School. That post linked to a Google Doc that she was going to share at a presentation she was doing with teachers. As I scanned the doc I noticed a reference to "Edmodo’s Google Doc integration" so I did a Google searched for edomodo google docs and came up with the link that I shared with you all above.
Isn't that so cool...in a nerdy sort of way :) In what ways do you "harvest" great teaching ideas from the web?
And a big shout out to Jennie Magiera for sharing her ideas and more with us all.
