It shouldn't come as a surprIse that socIal medIa has changed more than just how we pass the tIme, It has now Infused Itself Into formal learnIng channels. Although adoptIon Is slow (for Instance, only 15% of teachers fInd value In Facebook, WIkI, and other socIal networks), tIme wIll only show that It wIll rIse.
