“…The experimental group's performance on the Flipped Classroom task also indicates that the most relevant learning happens as a consequence of effective utilization of the additional class time in a flipped classroom (Tucker, 2012). Daraei, (2015) discovered via her study that Facebook was an excellent educational tool.…”

Almost every organization makes use of a Facebook group. They utilized it to debate themes and other problems concerning their own survival. Numerous mathematics instructors have already embraced its usefulness as a method of providing instructional materials to their pupils in the modern day. With these factors in mind, this research study on the use of Facebook groups in the teaching-learning process of mathematics was performed with the pioneer batch of ABM students at the University of San Carlos – Senior High School in Cebu City, Philippines. Through this amazing and updated communication medium, the kids learnt a new lesson. The statistical study revealed that the use of Facebook groups in the teaching-learning process of mathematics is beneficial. This is shown by the statistical equality of the experimental and control groups' post-test results. This demonstrates that the performance of students in the experimental and control groups is comparable. This is because the experimental groups did not participate in classroom discussions yet fared as well as the controls groups who did. Additional pertinent results from the research are provided in this article.

“…According to Thompson (2017), learning patterns using social media, would allow students to absorb and produce mathematical information through new literacy style. Daraei (2015) showed that Facebook brought positive change in students' satisfaction, helped students to do many activities with online classes, and helped students to improve their exam's grades when Facebook was used for academic purposes in learning mathematics. Iksan and Saufian (2017) reported the benefits of Telegram in learning are by allowing students to gain new experience, be more creative, generate spontaneous ideas, provide authentic ideas without the risk of being humiliated and encourage excitement as well as passionate with their learning.…”

The study was aimed to determine the impact of social media used on mathematics/statistics through online distance learning (ODL) among pre-diploma and diploma business management students enrolling for Intensive Mathematics (MAT037), Business Mathematics (MAT112), Mathematics with Business Applications (MAT111) and Introduction to Statistics (QMT181) courses of academic session November 2020 -January 2021 in a public university in Malaysia. The quantitative research design was employed in which samples were selected using cluster sampling method. From 53 academic groups of students taking MAT037, MAT111, MAT112, and QMT181, 21 groups were selected randomly. All students from 21 groups selected were chosen as samples. An online survey was conducted in January 2021 during the Recovery Movement Control Order (RMCO) Phase 3 period (1 st January 2021 -31 st March 2021). During this period of time, Malaysian public universities were still conducting teaching and learning activities via ODL. A total of 539 prediploma and diploma business management students of ages between 18 years to 23 years old participated in the study. Findings of the study revealed that WhatsApp was the most favourite used social media platform among the students, followed by Instagram, YouTube, Telegram, Twitter, Facebook, Pinterest, TikTok, Facebook Messenger, and Snapchat. Male students were found to favour Facebook while female students favoured Twitter, Pinterest, and Telegram more than males. Older (20 -23 years old) and senior (Part 2 and higher) students preferred to use Twitter while Instagram and Pinterest users were higher among younger (18 -19 years old) and junior (Prediploma/Part 1) students. Twitter users were also higher among students residing in urban areas, enrolling in insurance discipline of study, and taking statistics course. Combination of YouTube, Telegram, and/or WhatsApp used with lecturers' supervision, guidance, and collaboration during ODL had significantly affected mathematics/statistics performance while there was no significant effect between the combination of YouTube, Telegram, and/or WhatsApp when social media were used without lecturers' supervision, guidance, and collaboration. Results of the study also revealed that mathematics/statistics performance for groups who frequently used YouTube and groups who frequently used Telegram were significantly higher than groups who frequently used WhatsApp.

“…Facebook as a learning environment also has the potential for more student engagement; however, the use of social media should be supported by academics in order to build a community and to increase student engagement at HEIs (Toliver, 2011). Mazman and Usluel (2010) concurred that Facebook as an educational tool encourages active participation and collaboration, and Daraei (2015) argued that Facebook as an educational tool develops team-working skills; could be helpful for both teachers and students when used as a supportive material in lessons; helps teachers and students to know each other better via the profile pages; could make learning more enjoyable; could increase students' motivation by allowing them to communicate with each other (p. 80).…”

Today's students are digital natives, and advances in mobile technology should impel institutions of learning to revaluate their tutoring systems. Our study explored tutors' potential to introduce mobile learning through the social media application, Facebook, in tutorials conducted at the University of Johannesburg's faculty of education. This study further considered the tutors' potential to motivate students to use their devices for learning on social media through professional communities of practice online. Our exploratory qualitative study sought to understand the perception of tutors and tutees about the inclusion of Facebook through in-depth reviews of the literature, focus group interviews, questionnaires, and online log data responses. The data was thematically analysed and the results suggest that tutors can encourage students to use their devices for academic purposes through online Facebook discussions. Our conclusion is that the inclusion of Facebook as part of the tutorial experience can support virtual professional communities of learning online beyond the traditional physical and formal tutorial.
