Research – Social networking
Studies show that…Social networking sites bring about higher quality products and students become more sensitive at critiquing others’ work due to the larger viewing audience (Casey & Evans, 2011).
Pre-Survey Created an Edmodo Account Joined an AVID and Edmodo group that I
created Went through 5 Sections (WICOR)
Going Through Module

Computer sound issues“My ratings would be invalid because I was not able to view the videos of the module to make any valid rating. The sound on my computer was not working so I could not hear any of the videos for it to be useful. I was able to follow a little of some sections, but it was difficult and frustrating.”
Tutorial videos were too small
Include more basic instructions in module
e.g. How to make screens bigger
