The Power of 140 Characters: Engaging Learners through Social Media

Student motivation is influenced by the level of interaction developed in the virtual or traditional classroom (Baker, 2010). Apart from the chat and discussion board forum, the tools within Learning Management Systems are typically linear communication tools and are not designed to hold a collective space for dynamic discussions. Tools like Twitter, Edmodo, and Facebook will be explored as a space for instructors to engage their students with the course material.  Feel free to bring your lunch.
