The development of technology provides education with many solutions to create a new learning environment. Edmodo as a learning platform is believed to provide the solution particularly for teaching writing. The research was aimed to investigate how Edmodo as a learning platform was implemented in teaching writing in its combination with GBA, how Edmodo facilitated students’ engagement, and how students perceived the use of Edmodo.  This research employed a qualitative approach with a case study design. The participants involved were 17 eleventh graders of a senior high school in Cimahi West Java. The data were collected through observations, document analysis, interviews, and questionnaires. The result showed that to teach writing Edmodo was integrated into GBA writing cycles. Edmodo also facilitated students to cognitively engage during classroom sessions. The students showed a variety of acceptance both positive and negative towards the use of Edmodo based on UGT framework. Some issues on the use of Edmodo were also identified: bandwidth, students’ confusion in using the platform, incompatibility of smartphone applications, and students’ lack responsibilities for their learning. The suggestions for the authority and areas of future research are also presented.
