Edmodo

It is a free social platform that provides teachers and students with a safe
environment to communicate, collaborate, and exchange educational content
and digital applications in addition to homework, grades, and discussions.

Edmodo combines the advantages of Facebook and the Blackboard learning
management system (LMS) and uses Web 2.0 technology. The platform is currently used
by more than 47 million members including teachers, students, school administrators and
parents. Thus, it deserves the title of the first and largest social learning network in the
world.

The Edmodo platform is a free social learning network whose services can be used by
teachers, learners, schools, and educational administrations. Edmodo was founded in late
2008 in the city of Chicago, in the American state of Illinois, by Jeff O’Hara and Nic Tower.

The name has now been changed and Edmodo world is available. At the link:
