This paper summarizes the theories, methods, and results of a doctoral research that integrated social media (SM) in a learning experience for students and explored the roles that information literacy, digital literacy, and new literacies played in such a learning experience. Participatory action research was the methodological approach used for two rounds of data collection, resulting in the development of the research framework 'Doing Online Relearning through Information Skills' (DORIS). The data collection methods used included students' reports, diagnostic, and final questionnaires; and semistructured interviews. Data analysis relied on content analysis, open coding, and constant comparative analysis. This paper provides a summary of the discussion leading to the answers to the research questions, including topics such as issues and challenges of using SM for learning; participants learning experiences in such a technologically mediated environment, their engagement and the mutual shaping of SM, learning experiences, and literacies.Keywords: Social media, higher education, teaching, learning, participatory action research, information literacy 1 Introduction This paper is framed within a doctoral research that integrated social media (SM) in a learning experience for students and explored the roles that information literacy (IL), digital literacy (DL), and new literacies (NL) play in such a learning experience. This research assumed a mutual shaping perspective regarding its three main elements (learning, literacies and SM), thus opposing the perspective of technological determinism [1][2]. This stance allows gaining a better understanding about the role of technology in students' learning experiences and also for exploring how these experiences may affect the way technology is implemented into learning contexts.The main learning theories supporting this research are: constructivist [3] and problem based learning [4]; the three dimensions of learning (cognitive, social, and emotional) [5]; and the theory of affinity spaces [6]. The methodological approach used was participatory action research (PAR) [7][8][9], which is cyclical in nature [9]. Thus, two rounds of data collection were completed for this study, a first empirical study was conducted and as the methodology was revised, improved and enhanced, it resulted in the development of the research and methodological framework, 'Doing Online Relearning through Information Skills' (DORIS). 329This paper is structured in four main sections; section 2 summarizes the main concepts and theories of this research. Section 3 details the methodology used for both rounds of data collection, as well as the methods for the analysis of the data collected. Section 4 provides a summary of the answers to the research questions and discusses the contributions of this research. Main Concepts and TheoriesThe central concepts used in this study were IL [10][11], DL [12][13], and NL [14][15]. These concepts were used to make a distinction of different skills involved i...
