What's a VLE?
It's an online system that is designed to meet teachers' and learners' needs of an educational setting. It helps deliver content anywhere, anytime provided there's an internet connection available.
Most VLEs aim to recreate the brick-and-mortar learning experience, for example by creating teacher's accounts, learner accounts, peer groups, which are supported by communication tools such as e-mail, chat, discussion forums, and web publishing.

Edmodo's interface is very similar to Facebook so students as well as teachers will pick it up easily. Here's how it looks:

Teachers can create and manage libraries and folders, create activities such as quizzes, polls, assignments and so on and obviously keep a grading book as well. It's extremely easy but at the same time limited. It's a great solution if you're not aiming for a full online but you're blending your classes only partially.
