Dear All,

The Centre for Medical Education (CtME), with the assistance of the Learning Resources Dept, will resume the continuing series of lunchtime educational sessions in support of advancing e-learning and use of digital resources at IMU.

Description:
Facebook is a social utility that connects people with friends and others who work, study and live around them. Believe it, or not, there are more than 400 million Facebook users today. In this learning session, we will explore some possibilities on how we could use Facebook as a tool to facilitate student learning. During the hands-on part, participants will be asked to create either a Facebook Group or Facebook Page, so having a Facebook account would be strongly recommended.

As its on first come basis, please register early to ensure a place in the learning session. If you miss a session, visit the E-Learning Innovation Centre in http://www.elearning.imu.edu.my to find the appropriate presentations and learning resources.
