Week 4

Wow!  We're already on Week 4 of TECHsplorations!  Summer is flying by--be sure to savor every second!

This week, for LS teachers, we are going to explore the brand new look of Edmodo--they've updated the look of the system to be less cluttered and more intuitive.  I think you'll like it!  Log on to our group and go through the checklist I've posted to be sure that you are able to locate everything in this new "look."  If you haven't yet joined our group, just look at the links to the right on the blog and jump right in!  Joining now will really help you to make the most of Edmodo in the fall.

MS and US folks, we're looking at Pages and Modules in Canvas this week.  These are the core building blocks of course in Canvas, so you could say that this is an important week.  We had excellent participation last week in sharing interesting articles through a Google Doc/Canvas collaboration--well done everyone!  I really enjoyed reading all the interesting things that have caught your eye this summer.  If you haven't had a chance to contribute or to read the articles, be sure to take a look!  Your small assignment for this week is to read about Pages and Modules and then add your thoughts to the wiki page I've created.  I've purposely made this page editable by everyone (and you can do that with your students too!).  I'll be grading this using a rubric, so you'll get to see that feature in action too!  Log on to our Canvas group for all the details.

As always, have fun! :)
