Edmodo for the classroom

I have been using Edmodo.com in the classroom for a few years now.  It is a great tool to post assignments and have students turn them in there.  Parents can also see the students assignments and due dates as well making it a great tool to communicate with home as well.  There is also a great free classroom management app as well like class dojo, but without the set up.  Using edmodo also allows for online discussions which makes class a little different, and allows students who would not raise their hands to participate Edmodo even allows the teacher to set up online polls to see what the class is thinking.  If a student misses class they can still get their assignment and turn it in on time.  Edmodo is the future of education!  What do you think?
