Adoption of Social Networks for teaching and learning at high schools.

M. Tech. Business Information Systems / The growing trends and the rapid developments of technological innovation have led to a new way of communication. These developments have seen individuals and organizations spending a lot of money on technological devices, software and applications much higher than ever before. On the other hand, institutions of learning are also advancing with technological innovations by shifting away from the face-to-face teaching and communicating with learners, to the use of Learning Management Systems (LMS). Amidst these challenges, these institutions of learning could leverage on freely available social networks for communication and for teaching and learning. However, these transitions have been impeded by many factors that need to be explored in order to adopt social networks for teaching and learning. The foremost objective of this study was to develop a framework for the adoption of social networks for teaching and learning at high schools.
