What is Edmodo?

Edmodo is an application that aims to support teachers in an online environment in every aspect of the classroom. Very similar to a program like Moodle or D2L, this application has options for communication, assessment, and posting content. The big difference is that it incorporates gamification elements into the program itself. There is a point system and opportunities for teachers to set up game-based learning within the program as well. Edmodo is also compatible with many other applications and allows for everything to fit into one place.
