Respon

1. Indrasari (1652044001)
Edmodo is a media that can be used by teachers when teaching vocabulary.
Edmodo is easily installed on computers, laptops and android. There are
benefits by using Edmodo. They are easy to use features in submitting
online tasks, easy to access reference materials and increase of students’
motivation because of online activities and discussions. But there are some
things teacher should consider in applying Edmodo. Firstly, when teaching,
teacher must ensure the availability of internet connection. Secondly, the
number of computers should correspond with the number of students in the
class.

Teaching Using Edmodo
According to Yusop (2011), many social networking tools such as facebook,
twitter and Edmodo are built with micro-blogging technology. Micro-
blogging is simply the activity of blogging but within smaller size. It means
that people can use the social media such as Edmodo, facebook, and twitter
to communicate with other person in everywhere easily. In teaching-learning
process, it also can be useful tool to deliver materials although in out of the
class. It is strengthened by Turkmen (2012) in Belle (2013).

3. Meliana Dewi (165204005)

In our opinion, when using edmodo in social networking, is it effective ways
to use? Because the students can use mobile phones to browse Edmodo for
learning vocabulary, which creates more opportunities for helping their
language skills and encourages them to actively participate in learning.
Edmodo also can be used to facilitate vocabulary instruction, which research
shows, has resulted in teachers’ and learners’ positive attitudes towards
social media. It is supported by Enriquez (2014). Based on the result of his
research, Edmodo is indeed a great platform as a supplementary tool for
learning because of its features and benefits such as active participation in
online class activities, easy to use features in submitting online tasks, easy to
access reference materials and increase of student motivation because of
online activities and discussions.
