Abstract

Social networks conquered their space in our society’s daily life. Therefore, we couldn’t ignore their potentialities as far as collaborative learning was concerned. When monitoring the implementation and acceptance that these new spaces of communication, such as Facebook, brought to cybernauts we were faced with an extra motivation for using these tools in the context of the teaching/learning process. Understanding if learners were themselves motivated to participate and take advantage of these platforms, as an ease for their learning process, seemed like a question worthy of reflection.  

Keywords : learning; collaboration; interaction; social networks
