This investigation focused on participation patterns and outcomes between the students' most used social media (MUSM) and least used social media (LUSM). A total of 769 participants consented to complete the electronic survey. The investigation results indicated that as undergraduate students change their class standings, so does their use of social media. Sophomores are more active in their MUSM compared to freshman undergraduate students. Sophomores were also more likely to lurk compared to junior and senior undergraduate students. The results also indicate that both commitment and individual motivational factors encourage undergraduate students to log in and use their LUSM. Lastly, results showed that undergraduate students use and participate in social media for traditional as well as a range of alternative activities. The main alternative activity performed by undergraduate students in their MUSM and LUSM was private and direct messaging to share content and chat with others.","PeriodicalId":275398,"journal":{"name":"Int.

The importance of using audiovisual, graphic, technological objects and applications for teaching and learning calls for the integration of social media in education. Presently, tools, such as blogs, Wikis, YouTube, vodcast/podcast, Facebook, and Twitter have gained prominence in pedagogic context. It is now a recognised fact that merging social media technologies in teaching serve to bring both the institution and students closer. The purpose of this paper was to examine the effects and benefits of social media tools for better learning experiences and outcomes of students and whether social media tools should be incorporated as a blended approach to already existing method. A quantitative approach was used. The overall findings suggest that social media tools should be integrated in Higher Education Institute (HEI) as these tools are effective, useful will impact positively on education, although there are controversies arising from using such social media in education, namely human factors, security concerns, ethical and legal issues. Notwithstanding these concerns, social media tools offer HEI new approaches to teaching and learning.","PeriodicalId":275398,"journal":{"name":"Int. J. Soc. Media Interact. Learn.

We employed a qualitative case study design to explore potential factors affecting microblogging integration in a hybrid course. Using the technology acceptance model (TAM) model as an umbrella framework, we examined through in-depth interviews with 18 participants the impact of microblogging integration into instruction that affected students' reported use and perceptions of their microblogging-supported learning experiences. We found that individual differences, system characteristics, social influence and facilitating conditions all have impact on student participation and engagement in microblogging integration to varying degrees. We identified more granular factors within each of the four dimensions. Additionally, we proposed a Twitter user taxonomy based on perceived usefulness and usage behaviour and discussed its broad implications in higher education learning environments. Finally, we identified several pedagogical implications pertaining to strategies of microblogging integration under the context of a hybrid course and offered pertinent recommendations for future research.","PeriodicalId":275398,"journal":{"name":"Int.

Based on previous studies, the present study explored whether there was significant influence of ability level and big five personality traits on test-taking behaviour in the context of computerised adaptive testing (CAT) with binary logistic regression model. 126 items which varied in terms of their discrimination and difficulty constructed item bank of adaptive testing system. Chinese big five personality inventory brief version and CAT were administered to 142 students who majored in educational technology in a university. The results indicated that both ability level and big five personality traits had significant effect on examinees' test-taking behaviour. Further, the big five personality traits had a stronger effect on examinees' test-taking behaviour than ability level. As this study was one of the first to investigate the influence of ability level and big five personality traits on test-taking behaviour in the context of CAT, it provided new insights into the dynamics of test-taking behaviour in CAT.","PeriodicalId":275398,"journal":{"name":"Int.

By incorporating, psychological (i.e., subjective norm, number of peers and mood alteration), behavioural (i.e., intention to use, satisfaction and enjoyment), and technological perspectives, this study aimed at examining the relationship between these different factors and SNPs addiction. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first study that discusses this issue in the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) region. Data was collected from 434 students at a private American University in the State of Kuwait. Partial least squares (PLSs) of structured equation modelling (SEM) analysis was used to assess both the measurement and structural models. PLS analysis of the study data shows that 66.2% of the sample suffers from SNPs addiction. The study results demonstrated that all hypotheses were supported and statistically significant. Results of this study may benefit universities in dealing with students who suffer from this kind of addiction. The research limitations and implications are discussed.","PeriodicalId":275398,"journal":{"name":"Int. J. Soc. Media Interact. Learn.
