New internet technologies have not only transformed communication but also revolutionized teaching and learning. One of the greatest steps forward in this area was Web 2.0 technology. In addition, new technologies such as podcasts, social networking, and online learning communities started to shape communication between teachers and students, and these became tools for sharing educational content. This paper examines the use of Web 2.0 tools in higher education, specifically in a case study of Edmodo. The first section of the paper provides information about the relationship between Web technologies and education. The second section focuses on a case study using Edmodo as a Web 2.0 tool to teach classical Turkish literature to third-year undergraduate students. The main purpose of the case study is to identify and classify the purposes for which the students and teacher preferred to use Edmodo for communication and in which ways they communicated with each other. A mixed research methodology with a combination of qualitative and quantitative methods was used to collect the data. An open-ended survey was also conducted via SurveyMonkey (www.surveymonkey.com) in regard to students' perceptions of Edmodo. The result of the study showed that student-initiated communications via Edmodo were much fewer than teacher-initiated communications.
