What do the experts say about it?
’This is an essential and defining point about social media; it has turned theconcept of “learning” on its head. It’s nolonger about waiting to be taught ortrained, but about individuals having thepower in their own hands to deal with theirown learning problems much more quicklyand efficiently than before.

At its most basic level, new social learning can result in people becoming more informed, gaining a wider perspective, and being able to make better decisions by engaging with others. It acknowledges that learning happens with and through other people, as a matter of participating in a community, not just by acquiring knowledge.
