Introduction to Facebook Groups
http://youtu.be/I6ud_SZARCs
Facebook Groups
Facebook Groups (facebook.com/groups) are online spaces where people can INTERACT,
SHARE and COLLABORATE with others.
You DON’T NEED TO BE FRIENDS with someone to interact with them in Facebook Groups.
Use Facebook Groups to provide students with ON-DEMAND and MOBILE LEARNING
opportunities.

Learning Beyond the Classroom!
“Think of Facebook Groups as an opportunity for you to extend learning outside the walls of the traditional classroom. When you use Facebook Groups to compliment what you teach in the
classroom, you are providing students with on-demand and mobile learning opportunities.”
