Edmodo, and What We Did

I think that the students like using Edmodo, because they had other people to bounce ideas off of.  They also had someone to pushe them in a direction for their writing.  Their writing is still their own, because they had the choice of which prompt to take.  Many of the students like the collaborative writing because it was a new way to look at writing methods.  I enjoyed the Edmodo project, because it exposed me to an atmosphere that I may not have seen otherwise.  I also enjoyed reading the other students' stories and seeing what level that they wrote on.  In future classes, I may use a tool similar to this to give a class a challenge problem.  That way, they can work together to get the problem finished.
