ABSTRACT

 

_A Face(book) In The Crowd: Online Social Networks For Engaged Learning_

 

In April 2006, there were nearly 22,000 members of the Iowa State
University community registered in Facebook. Two years later there are
nearly 35,000 members, an increase of nearly 60 percent.

In this presentation, we will provide an overview of Facebook; describe
its major features and functionalities; and profile various
institutional projects that utilize Facebook for engaged organizational
outreach.

Links to each of the four parts of The A/V are available from
