Using the Facebook group as a learning management system: An exploratory study - Wang - 2011 - British Journal of Educational Technology - Wiley Online Library | Online Student Engagement | Scoop.it

Facebook is a popular social networking site. It, like many other new technologies, has potential for teaching and learning because of its unique built-in functions that offer pedagogical, social and technological affordances. In this study, the Facebook group was used as a learning management system (LMS) in two courses for putting up announcements, sharing resources, organizing weekly tutorials and conducting online discussions at a teacher education institute in Singapore.
