This document summarizes research conducted in 2009 on students' motivations for using social networking sites to enhance studying and learning. The researchers developed a social networking site called TUT Circle for freshmen at Tampere University of Technology (TUT) to provide tools for interaction and study support. However, few students used the site for its intended purpose of supporting mathematics courses. To understand this, the researchers studied students' attitudes towards social networking sites. They found that technical students were more open to using social media to enhance learning, and that some students valued anonymity on such sites. The researchers concluded that integrating social media tools into traditional teaching and learning aligns with what today's students want and need.

Virtual Community in Interactive Teaching: Five CasesIOSR Journals
Abstract: Modern teaching methods demand innovative and effective use of technology at utmost level.
Incorporating a virtual community outside classroom teaching has become inevitable in digital age education.
This research was intended to find out how this can be used in terms of interactive teaching and how it can
facilitate students to recover the lacks of learning in classroom. A web community of a university called
Learning Feedback System (LFS) has been used here as the methodology to analyze five sample cases. Effects of
a significant level of interaction in LFS indicated that it helped to reduce the communication gap between
students and teachers that of course leading to proper learning.

Tweeting the night away: Using Twitter to enhance social presencePatrick Lowenthal
To be truly effective, online learning must facilitate the social process of learning. This involves providing space and opportunities for students and faculty to engage in social activities. Although learning management systems offer several tools that support social learning and student engagement, the scope, structure, and functionality of those tools can inhibit and restrain just-in-time social connections and interactions. In this teaching tip, we describe our use of Twitter to encourage free flowing just-in-time interactions and how these interactions can enhance social presence in online courses. We then describe instructional benefits of Twitter, and conclude with guidelines for incorporating Twitter in online courses.
Using Social network in Higher Education A case Study on the University of Pa...IJERA Editor
The users which are using social networking sites nowadays by various strata of society such as students,
teachers, engineers, housewives and elderly people are increasing. So the goal of this paper is to invest social
networking in education especially at the universities.
Student spending more time on the social networking sites than on the e-learning programs, so social
networking can be used in a useful way to support e-learning. 54% of people who were surveyed about the
usage of social Networks said they used Facebook daily while 9% used MOODLE.
So this paper uses the social networks for e-learning as a case study on the university of Palestine.

This 60-minute webinar, sponsored by Adobe, was delivered for the Training Mag Network. It explored the five elements of SPARK: Storytelling, Purpose, Action, Relationships, and Kudos. Knowing how to tell a well-structured story is key to building long-term memory. Stating a clear purpose that doesn't take away from the discovery learning process is critical. Ensuring that people move from theory to practical application is imperative. Creating strong social learning is the key to commitment and engagement. Validating and affirming participants' comments is the way to create a positive learning environment.

1. Students’ Motivations for
Social Media Enhanced
Studying and Learning
Siriporn Faisatjatham No. 07 TESOL 5
2. Abstract
Solutions of social media enhanced learning are widely
studied in Hypermedia Laboratory at Tampere
University of Technology (TUT). In recent years Web
2.0 based social media services (e.g., Facebook® ,
LinkedIn® , Last.fm® , etc.) have become popular,
especially among young people. Based on this
phenomenon TUT Hypermedia researchers have
developed a social networking site for TUT
freshmen aiming to provide convenient
tools for interaction and study support.
The first idea was to offer a free-of-charge
social web site in the context of learning
Basic Engineering Mathematics at TUT.
3. Abstract
This was thought to be an efficient tool to get
new students studies off to a good start as
mathematics courses play a significant role.
However, the prediction failed, which caused
us to study students‟ motivations for social
network site usage in the study context.
This paper describes research
conducted in 2009. Moreover,
a description of subsequent measures
accomplished (e.g., web site development
and social network analysis) at TUT is included.
4. Introduction
Web 2.0 based social media services
(e.g., Facebook® (1), LinkedIn® (2),
Last.fm® (3), etc.) have recently
become well known especially among
young people. There is clearly
something appealing in web-based
social services. In social networking sites
a user can participate intensively in
activities in the service, share
contents, debate and share opinions
and create different kinds of groups for
different needs.
5. Why use social networking
sites in the study context?
Kärkkäinen (2007) observed that
one of the crucial problems in
(Finnish) university level studies is
that the very early steps at the
beginning of studies are the most
difficult for many students. One
reason for this is that only a few
new students know any of their
peers at the beginning of studies in
their new university.
6. Why use social networking
sites in the study context?
Furthermore, this development
work led us to study students‟
attitudes towards social networking
sites. The aim of the research was to
find aspects of social network
services that motivate students to
actively participate in discussions,
social networking procedures etc. in
this context of studying at their home
university.
7. A web community
In fact in many cases social aspects
are not in any way part of the nature
of particular systems designed to
support studying and learning. On
the other hand students could
achieve more effective co-operation
in their studies if they could make
friends outside tutor groups, army
friends and other traditional
channels. Social media can be seen
as one answer to this problem. (Silius
et al., 2009.)
8. The TUT Circle
To enhance the dynamics of
activity all content in TUT Circle can be
tagged with keywords. These tags help
users to find contents on particular topics
dynamically without using complex
searches etc. Tags also support social
networking when users can easily list all
users e.g., according to some specific
interest or hobby. Tags describing
geographical information such as place
of residence and place of birth can be
shown for all users or restricted to user‟s
neighbourhood using Google MapsTM
based map widget
12. Motivation research
As a result the opinions of
early adopters were ascertained.
Students studying technology are
more likely to be early adopters of
technology than students from
other fields of study.
13. Results
Some students emphasized the
importance of anonymity in web
community activity.
After all, TUT Circle was seen to
increase a sense of belonging,
because in the system it is “easy to
discuss local issues and get to know
the people at TUT” (16). Wellman
(2002) refers to this phenomenon as
“glocalization”; the ability of the
Internet to both expand user‟s social
contacts and bind them more
closely to the place where they live.
14. Conclusions
In technical fields of study students
are interested in the possibilities of
social media and the potential
benefits it could offer for study
enhancement. Students are
increasingly requiring web based tools
for studying as well as freely
accessible electronic course
materials. Obviously tools provided by
social media are attractive to
students today and making those
tools a part of traditional teaching,
studying and learning is rational. This is
what young people want and need.
Editor's Notes
Introduction and Ice-Breaker activity
Review slide
Group Activity
Meta-Analysis of the research on instruction identified nine categories of instructional strategies that have a high probability of enhancing student achievement. This chart illustrates the average effect size and percentile gains realized from the use of these strategies in the classroom. Note the highlighted row for COOPERATIVE LEARNING. Effect size is the unit of measurement that researchers use to report study results. A simple way to understand effect size is to translate into percentile gains, which is done with a mathematical formula. What this chart tells us is that on average, the use of this strategy produced a percentile gain of 27 points. Keep in mind……. Even though the research has taught us a great deal….. There are still some things we don’t yet know, such as… Are some instructional strategies more effective: ~ in certain subject areas? ~ at certain grade levels? ~ with students from different backgrounds? ~ with students of different aptitude? No strategy works will in ALL situations AND the effectiveness of any strategy depends on the thoughtfulness and skill the teacher brings in using the strategy
When students work in cooperative groups, they make sense of, or construct meaning for, new knowledge by interacting with others. The Cooperative Learning strategy best fits with the question, “ Which strategies will help students practice, review and apply that knowledge?” and “Which strategies will help students acquire and integrate that knowledge?”
