Abstract

 In today's digital era, there are a number of social media that can be used as a tool to help writing skills for those who learn English. One of the  media  is "Edmodo". Edmodo is a social  networking based learning platform that is intended for teachers, students and parents. In this  study,  the  researcher  integrated  Process  and  Genre-Based Approaches  with  Edmodo  as  a  teaching  strategy.  The  participants  are the  students  from  the  2 nd   semester  of  English  Language  Program  at Wijaya  Putra  University.  The  procedure  for  developing  the  model applied  in  this  study  consisted  of:  planning,  implementing,  observing, and reflecting. The research found that 70% of the students support to use Edmodo in writing class while 30% of them gave a neutral opinion. Edmodo as an online  media supports the effectiveness  of the teaching learning  process  that  is  proved  by  the  improvement  of  the  students’ writing  skill  in  which  their  scores  increase  dramatically.  The  main barriers  of  the  use  of  Edmodo  is  incompatibility  of  their  smartphone applications and confusion of using the application.
