This is excellent.
"Edmodo is a site that allows users to establish a class microblogging network where only those in the course can post, share, and critique each other’s ideas. This provides an opportunity for the online instructor to have students share information in a secure site and facilitate the development of providing constructive criticism. Other microblogging sites may be set up in a similar fashion. When students feel that their comments are only being read and responded to by their peers, many times the facilitation of the conversation is not as difficult as they feel comfortable in that secure environment."
I intend ti use this.
Thanks
