From email to Twitter, blogs to word processors, computer
programs provide countless communications opportunities. While social
applications have dominated the development of the participatory web for
users and programmers alike, this era of Web 2.0 is applicable to more
than just networking opportunities: it impacts education.
The integration of increasingly sophisticated information and
communication tools (ICTs) is sweeping university classrooms.
Understanding how learners and instructors perceive the effectiveness of
these tools in the classroom is critical to the success or failure of
their integration higher education settings. A new study led by
Concordia University shows that when it comes to pedagogy, students
prefer an engaging lecture rather than a targeted tweet.
