Edmodo was created in California in 2009 by Nic Borg and Jeff O'Hara, with the intention of creating a social space associated with education. Thus its visual interface is similar to that of social networks such as Facebook. As Kate Baker, Edmodo’s Senior Manager of Community Engagement, told Convergencialatina, the initial goal was to provide an online community. It is currently one of the communication and collaboration platforms with learning management functions (LMS) used for hybrid education, such as Google Classroom and Moodle, among others.
