“…Social media is ultimately a technological platform with several features that contain a set of technical and social affordances. Social media provides more advantages than traditional media, the major benefits being interactivity (Al-Sabaawi & Dahlan, 2018;Alsaadat, 2018;Ersoy & Güneyli, 2016;Fox & Ralston, 2016;Genden, 2018;McCarthy, 2015), familiarity (Al-Sabaawi & Dahlan, 2018;Blaschke, 2014;Genden, 2018), popularity (Garcia et al, 2015), and engagement (Al-Sabaawi & Dahlan, 2018;McPherson, Budge, & Lemon, 2015). People tend to use social media for leisure activities (e.g., watching movies) and communication, but many studies confirm that the use of social media has opened new ways of learning.…”

Social media becomes a mediator in an informal learning environment where learners are responsible for their own learning activities. Many studies acknowledge that informal learners tend to use social media as a learning tool in modern times, but social media was not created with this purpose in mind. This study therefore aims to review and analyse the literature on social media and informal learning from an information system (IS) perspective to identify the social affordances. The study is based on e English publications in peer-reviewed journals and conferences from 2010 to 2020. 136 papers in the field of social media and informal learning have been analysed. Thematic analysis has been used to identify the social affordances. Social affordances of social media that have been identified can help learners to evaluate the success of their informal learning via social media, while learners who are currently not engaged in social media can gain a better understanding of how to utilize social media platforms to enhance their informal learning. This review contributes to the growing field of research on the role of affordance in social media and informal learning fields.

Czerkawski (2016) destaca la naturaleza social de estos procedimientos, en tanto que los estudiantes son altamente influenciados por las plataformas digitales: desde el envío instan-táneo de un mensaje, hasta la visita de espacios web, escuchar música, jugar videojuegos y descargar materiales.…”

La educación informal en redes sociales es un hecho reciente y creciente en la era de la información ubicua y digital. Un contexto que requiere, por parte del entorno pedagógico institucional, atender a las nuevas dinámicas de enseñanza y aprendizaje, más allá del empleo instrumental de las tecnologías en el aula. Partiendo de esta panorámica mediática actual, el estudio pretende acentuar las dimensiones temáticas educativas referentes y frecuentes en YouTube, así como detectar y plantear nuevos entornos o contenidos didácticos adicionales.
