Communicating w. facebook

In a recent study conducted by University of Minnesota's Christine Greenhow, a learning technologies researcher from the College of Education and Human Development, students using social networking Web sites are practicing the 21st century skills needed to be successful in today's society.

As globalization has made international student recruitment ever more important, social media (also other than Facebook) and online marketing seems to be just right for getting your message across to prospective students far away.

What you share an item of news, link, image, video, or something else on Facebook, it is more than just a one way communication.  And more than a two way communication.  It is reminiscent of  a chat room that way, but a more static, asynchronous type of conversation.  Because when I share something, other people are going to comment on it.  At least that is part of the hope. And these comments will lead to other comments, and a sharing that expands to the friends of your friends on Facebook.
