<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1f497d">Our college is an Edmodo school. The teachers and kids “get it” and use it extensively. It has nice features but is a little simple if you’ve used Moodle. It
has an annoying habit of moving material down the page (think the Facebook wall).<u></u><u></u></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1f497d">I use Schoology a lot, especially with my senior students and project-based courses. It combines an Edmodo-like “Updates” view with a folder based course organiser.
It lets you customise rubrics for grading and I’ve imported the KK’s and KS’s for ITApps as outcomes so I can align tasks – very powerful.<u></u><u></u></span></p>
