This seminar will address the challenge of creating Blended Learning communities that are student focused and enhance learning interaction. It draws on evidence of the quiet revolution that social networking has contributed to the creation of online learning environments which enable Blended Learning to be more effective.

The presentation focuses on a case-study showing successful engagement between learners and learner facilitators in Physical Geography at the University of Glamorgan where social media sites such as Facebook have been in use since 2006. The Blended Learning community created for current students has led to the establishment of a larger network that connects graduates, undergraduates and prospective students in the discipline.

The seminar presents case study data evidencing the potential of social networking to act as a tool for creating effective Blended Learning communities in addition to its role in social engagement.
