Edmodo is one online learning platform that is accessible for teachers, students, and parents. This research aims to investigate the impact of using Edmodo among the students in Surabaya as well as their attitudes toward the use of Edmodo in the English classroom. This was action research on utilizing Edmodo in the English classrooms in one public senior high school in Surabaya. In addition, reflection among students was accommodated to determine students attitudes toward Edmodo in the classroom.
