Book cover Managing Open Innovation Technologies

Abstract

This chapter discusses how to create value in the network, which is critical since social media-based E-learning can be seen as a network of actors interacting with each other. The more value a network can potentially accrue, the richer the learning experience is for the participants. Value in this instance is defined as the network’s ability to generate and aid the construction of social knowledge. Further, the chapter discusses the implementation of social media-based E-learning and finally some practical advice is presented about how to implement social media-based E-learning.
