Academic Paper from the year 2018 in the subject Pedagogy - Media Pedagogy, grade: 74, The Open University (School of Educational Technology), course: Technology-Enhanced Learning: Practices and Debates, language: English, abstract: This module paper attempts to evaluate how learners own technology enhanced learning. It begins with a critical review of McCarthy’s ‘Learning in the Café: pilot testing the collaborative application for education in Facebook’ and Thorpe’s ‘Effective online interaction: mapping course design to bridge from research to practice’. The fact that Facebook has different features that promote student interactions, it was no surprise that 92 % agreed that Café encourages their interaction with their peers. The importance of this interaction was confirmed by Thorpe (2008) who recommends a range of activities that promote both group and individual participation as well as compulsory student participation for effective interaction.
