Joining Edmodo Edmodo is a FREE and SAFE way for teachers and students to connect and collaborate.

Once your teacher has given you a group code, creating your first Edmodo Student Account is simple! If you have ever created an Account, possibly for a previous school or different class, there is no need to create a new Student Account (you only need one Account). You can update your previous Edmodo Account and do not need to create a new one, even if you are changing schools, adding groups/classes, or changing your email address.

If you have never created an Edmodo Account, you can create a new Student Account by following the steps below:

1. Obtain a 6-digit Group Code from your teacher. 2. Visit www.edmodo.com and select the “I’m a Student” button. 3. Fill out the registration form with the Group Code, a unique username, and

password. An email address is not required to sign up for a Student Account. 4. Select the “Sign up” button to complete the sign up process. You will then see the Group

your teacher created in the left side panel of your account.

Note: To join other teacher’s Groups or classes, all you need to do is repeat these instructions, all on your same Student Account. There is no need to create another account!

 

Send a Direct Message to your Teacher (Student)

You can easily send a "Direct Message" to your teacher. This is a private message and will only be visible by your teacher. It will appear in your posts stream, but nobody else's. This can be a great way to communicate privately with your teacher.

To send a Direct Message:

1. Log in to your account 2. Types your message in the text field near the top of the page that says "Type your note here..."

3. Click the "Send To" menu, and select your teacher's name. 4. Click the grey icons at the bottom of the post if you want to attach a File, Link, or something

from your Backpack 5. Click the blue "Send" button

Your post will then appear in your post stream, but only you and your teacher will be able to see it!

Send a Post (Student)

To create a new post, follow these steps:

1. Type the message in the text box of the post bubble.

2. Click on the “Files" , “Links" , or “Library" icon to add attachments. 3. Type the name of a Teacher or Group into the “Send to…” field. (If you clicked on a

particular Group, the “send to” field will automatically show the Group, you can add more Groups if you like.)

Note: Students cannot privately message other students. You can direct message your teacher by typing their name in the "Send To" field.

Reply to a Post (Student)

If you want to

respond to something your teacher or classmates said to the Group, you can reply to the post following the steps below.

1. Select the “Reply” icon located below a message. 2. Type your reply in the text box then select the “Reply” button when you are ready to

post it. The reply message will appear below the original post.

Note: You cannot directly reply to a reply, but you can add the @ symbol and the person's name in your reply to signify your reply was meant for them. This is a public reply for everyone in the Group to see.

Turn in Assignments (Student)

Once you have completed your Assignment, you can turn it in by following the steps below:

1. Click the "Filter posts by" link at the top right of your "Latest Posts" area and choose Assignments to find the Assignment.

2. Locate the Assignment Post and click the “Turn in” button on the Assignment. 3. Type a message in the text box and attach any files, links, or items from your Backpack. 4. Click on the Reaction to the Assignment (you cannot change this reaction after

submitting the Assignment). 5. Click on “Turn in Assignment." 6. After you have turned in an Assignment and your teacher has graded it, you can view

your grade.

Note: If you need to resubmit an Assignment, you can do so only if your teacher allows this. Once your teacher has graded the Assignment, you are unable to resubmit the Assignment, unless the teacher clears the grade first. If you are turning in an image file, please read our article about submitting image files as assignments.

Submitting image files for an Assignment?

Many art teachers have their students submit image files for assignments on Edmodo. This is a great way to turn in your work. However, when image files are attached to assignment submissions, their file size is reduced to increase the speed and performance of the upload, which can occasionally result in decreased or distorted image quality. If you would like to maintain the original file size and quality of your image, please follow the steps below:

• Students can upload their photos to an external hosting site, such as Flickr or Picasa, and then attach the links to their images to their assignment submissions. This way, you can ensure that the students' submissions will not be distorted or reduced in quality.

• Or, browse this list of other photo-sharing sites.
