- Facebook as a Learning Management System (LMS) in Higher EducationPublication . Rodrigues, Ana Luísa; Tomás Vargues Patrocínio, José; Curado, Ana Paula; Cabrito, Belmiro; Cerdeira, LuisaThe integration of digital technologies (DTs) and the growing use of social networks play a leading role in society, consequently affecting education and schools. In this sense, it is very important to include DTs in higher education, namely the Learning Management Systems (LMS) and Platforms, in order to boost their use and integration in the educational context, both by teachers and, through a formative process of isomorphism, by students. This study is being developed within the initial teacher’s training in a class of 22 students in the second year of the Masters in Teaching Economics and Accounting, at the Education Institute of the University of Lisbon. The main objective of this study is to evaluate a way of integrating DTs in the initial teacher’s training, with the specific aim of testing the use of a learning management platform (LMP), which is simultaneously a social network – Facebook – as an e-learning tool for online support and communication. We submitted an initial questionnaire to the class for primary data collection, which included a brief characterization of the habits and use of Facebook and e-learning. In the Facebook platform a closed group was created, having been provided with general information on the subject and related events, as well as news and articles on educational issues. We have also created common files, and synchronous sessions are also taking place, via chat and video call, for online clarifications and support. Thus, this study intends to check the applicability of a learning management platform, i.e. Facebook, as an innovative teaching tool in the e-learning process in the initial teacher’s training, seeking to ascertain its advantages and disadvantages and strengths and weaknesses, in order to face the challenge of integrating digital technologies in teaching.
