“…It was a form of community of practice through which there was interconnecting of learning experiences and the students felt closer to the teacher who was in their social domain. In other words, both the student and the teacher gained experience and aptitude in a common zone, in which they met and thus, developed and enriched together (Mazer, Murphy, & Simons, 2009).…”

This study investigates the effectiveness of using Facebook in enhancing vocabulary knowledge among Community College students. Thirty-three (33) Community College students are exposed to the use of Facebook as an environment of learning and enhancing their English vocabulary. They are given a pre-test and a post-test and the findings indicate that students perform significantly better in the post-test compared to the pre-test. It appears that Facebook could be considered as a supplementary learning environment or learning platform or a learning tool; with meaningful and engaging activities that require students to collaborate, network and functions as a community of practice, particularly for introverted students with low proficiency levels and have low self-esteem.

“…Additionally, students who viewed instructors with high amounts of self-disclosure on Facebook reported higher levels of motivation, affective learning, and evaluated the classroom climate more positively than those who were exposed to a teacher who limited their disclosures on Facebook (Mazer et al, 2007a).…”

“…Indeed, some students may be hesitant to initiate communication with instructors outside of class (Kelly, Duran, & Zolten, 2001;Martin & Myers, 2006). Communication researchers have recently focused attention on how students and instructors communicate via technology (e.g., Johnson, 2011;Mazer, Murphy, & Simonds, 2007a, 2007b, and how forms of technology, such as Twitter, can serve as a form of informal communication with instructors. Thus, the current study examines Twitter as a mechanism of informal communication between instructor and student.…”

“…We build upon the assertion that an instructor's self-disclosure is a vital component to creating a perception of credibility (Brookfield, 2006;McCroskey, 1992), adding recent work that suggests that formal and informal self-disclosure among students and instructors transpires and is affected by communication in an online context (Johnson, 2011;Lowe & Laffey, 2011;Mazer et al, 2007aMazer et al, , 2007b). …”

Introduction: This research is a descriptive and correlational research which has been done with the purpose of surveying the relationship between mental disorders and the amount of time that people spend on Facebook. 147 members out of Facebook active users were chosen randomly. Then epidemiology questionnaire of mental disorders (SCL-90-R) was used to collect data. Data analysis was done using Spearman correlation coefficient and multiple regression. The results showed that there was a significant relation between characters such as aggression, obsession, psychosis, paranoia, depression and using Facebook (p < 0.05), but this relation was not significant in anxiety, interpersonal sensitivity, physical complaints and phobia. Furthermore, this relationship was significant regarding to subjects' gender and marital status (p < 0.05), but there was no relationship regarding to their age.
