After creating your account, you are greeted with the "home" page of Edmodo. Here you can see your dashboard, calendar and the posts created by the users. The home page looks like this:

Edmodo has already offered us with the opportunity of creating our first class, so I am going to go ahead and create a class named "Test Class" using the button in the home page. After naming the class and writing a short description, our class is now ready! Now let's check out what we can do with our newly created class.

Edmodo once again guides us through the features, so let's examine the things we can do with our class.
