“…E‐professionalism represents a crossroad between health science professionalism and social networking, 5,7,8 with Facebook (Facebook, Inc.) being the most commonly used 9,10 and mostly associated with e‐professionalism 10‐12 online social media and social networking service worldwide. Facebook encourages users to post personal information, as well as social or work life events.…”

“…Facebook encourages users to post personal information, as well as social or work life events. When these online data, though, belong to health care professionals, the boundary between personal and professional life becomes obscure, 10,11,13 resulting in the so‐called “unprofessional” Facebook use that may be observed by medical and dental practitioners or students 10,14,15 . Unprofessional content may affect negatively e‐professionalism and includes membership in groups dedicated to controversial issues, for example, religion, political beliefs or sexual preference 16‐19 ; posts revealing healthcare practitioners' personal life moments, for example, pictures showing alcohol drinking, smoking, partying; and nude photographs and posts with sexually explicit material 2,10,18,20,21 .…”

Introduction The social media attitude of health science students might affect patients' opinion about the health profession and have negative impact on e‐professionalism. The aim of this study is to investigate the behaviour of Greek dental students on Facebook, focusing on potentially unprofessional posts and the online student‐patient relationship. Materials and methods Five hundred and twelve dental students in Greece answered an anonymous, 23‐item questionnaire including multiple‐choice questions about various topics, including Facebook profile settings and content shared by dental students, student‐patient relationship via Facebook; and students' perception about the impact of their online behaviour. Results 93.2% of responders had a Facebook profile and 80.5% admitted that their online attitude might affect patients' opinion about dental profession. However, 71.7% posted pictures from holidays, 41.5% from nightclubs, and 26.2% photographs wearing swimwear/underwear, while 12.8% expressed online political party predilection. One quarter of students in clinical years were Facebook friends with patients and 58% and 30% of them had online discussion about topics related or not to dentistry, respectively, while 6.8% of dental students had posted defamatory comments about the dental school, faculty members or academic staff on Facebook. Discussion In accordance with studies in other countries, most Greek dental students had a Facebook profile and, although the majority realised the impact of Facebook behaviour on e‐professionalism, a considerable percentage posted unprofessional content. Conclusion Dental students might fall into pitfalls when it comes to e‐professionalism. As social media are becoming an integral part of life, there is need to include e‐professionalism in dental education curriculum.

“…Therefore, Facebook has been the convergence of private use and educational use. In another study, [4] found that students perceived a distinct divide between educational and private use of social media, and their result indicate that there is yet another type of use: social media as a tool for career-building purposes, or what is labeled as professional use. Consequences of social media for use in higher education are of three roles as performed by the individual: the student role in educational settings, the professional role for career-building, and the private role.…”

Social media (SM), a platform where people can share, exchange, and communicate their ideas and knowledge, has been the part of human's life and has become the new trend in communication and learning. Technology has profoundly changed education and its delivery mode. This study aims to explore the usage of SM by the students, and to discover the most common resources used in teacher education. Furthermore, it aims to illustrate students' belief about the influence of SM on their learning. This study administered validated questionnaires to students of B.Ed./M.Ed. from School of Education (SoE) of Bangladesh Open University. A non-probability sampling technique was utilized with a sample size of 195 students (females, n=117; males, n=78). The most common website used by both genders was Facebook. With regard to utilizing SM for learning, the students believed that it was beneficial. SoE needs to improve the utilization of SM by its faculty, tutors and students by developing activities and encouraging the usage of SM in blended program of teacher education program.

Fostering student engagement in a university STEM course is a challenge since typical student nowadays is a digital native. Thus, adoption of technology, particularly one that the students interact in their online milieu is a prerequisite for a successful learning experience. In this context instructor needs to integrate elements such as content creation and social interaction when delivering the course. This becomes imperative in recent times when online teaching and learning becomes the norm. In this study, we present findings from an engineering course which incorporate the elements of content creation and social interaction through video projects collaboratively created by our students. The main highlight of this course is the digital video project which was designed according to the SAMR (Substitution, Augmentation, Modification and Redefinition) model. The objective of this study is to find relationship between the project and students' achievement of course outcome as proxy for students' engagement. The methodology used a quasi-experimental method where the achievement of one target learning outcome of this course as measured with in-house OBE software with the cohort doing the video project is compared with cohort from past semester as control group. The results suggest significant relationship between video project activity and achievement of learning outcome. It is also found that the video project correlates with improved student engagement in the course. The findings from this study provide a framework for instructor in a university-level STEM course to design and integrate technology in their course delivery.
