There are two ways to have a presence on Facebook – you can have one or the other or both. 1)  have a personal account. 2)  have a professional or business page.

•  With personal account(1), you have reciprocal friendships with other Facebook members and can join (or establish) Facebook groups.

•  PLUS you have the ability to create professional or business pages (2) associated with that account.

•  With (2) you do not establish “friendships” with Facebook members, rather other Facebook members can simply “like” your page in which case, posOngs on your page will appear in their personal acOvity streams.

•  Facebook pages are also visible to non-‐Facebook members.

•  If you set up a Facebook page, you can later convert your Facebook business page into a personal account if you like.

•  Note, that Facebook’s terms and condiOons state that you can not have more than one personal account, although you can set up mulOple Facebook pages.

SeSng up a personal account

Privacy seSngs

•  If you are going to use your personal account for connecOng with both personal friends and professional and other contacts, you will need to be very clear about who sees what in your account.

How to communicate on Facebook

•  You can write a status update – This will be viewable by those you have selected in your privacy seSngs.

•  A status message can be up to 400 characters long. Your friends can comment on your status update, show that they like the update and/or share it with others.

How to communicate on Facebook

•  You can write on a friend’s wall – Note: this is not a private message and may be visible by others.

•  You can send your colleague a private message -‐ Select Send X a message on their profile page.

•  You can live chat with a friend -‐ In the bo]om right-‐hand corner of the screen is the chat window which will tell you the number of your friends online.

Facebook groups

•  Facebook groups are open, closed or secret (invisible) spaces for groups of individuals to private conversaOons and discussions – but note, group members do all have to be Facebook members.

•  h]ps://www.facebook.com/groups/groupsatewha/

To join a group

•  To locate a group of interest, you could search for a group by typing a keyword into Search. Groups you are a member of are displayed in the le_ nav bar of your Home page.

To set up your own group

•  in the le_-‐hand menu of your Home page, select the Create group under Groups, and then work through the screens providing informaOon about your group.

•  You will need to decide the privacy seSngs of your group: Open, Closed or Secret. Note, you will need to add members to your group before it is created.

SeSng up a Facebook Page

•  Individuals, businesses and other organizaOons can set up Facebook pages (EITHER in addiOon to a personal account OR instead of a personal account), (e.g. to promote or market their services, event or book or just for discussion around topic areas.)

•  If others want to comment on posOngs that appear on such pages, as well as receive the feeds from the page in your own newsfeed page, they click the ”Like” bu]on, which will mean that they then become a “fan” of the page.

•  Note: Facebook pages are visible outside Facebook, which means that even those who are not Facebook members can also view them, although they do need to be a member to “like” them and comment on them.

CreaOng a Facebook Page

•  SeSng up a professional page is a useful way of keeping your personal and professional lives separate; in other words you could use your personal account for keeping in touch with friend and for personal acOviOes, and a Facebook page for your professional acOviOes.


•  If you are already a Facebook user, you can set up your own Facebook page, select More beside Pages (on the le_-‐hand menu on your Home page), and then click the Create a Page bu]on.

•  If you are not a Facebook user and you only want to have a Facebook page, you can set up your page from the main facebook.com page by selecOng Create a Page link underneath the Sign up bu]on – in other words, don’t go through the sign up details provided on that page.


•  You can set up as many Pages as you want, and you can have as many administrators of your page as you like.

Facebook and educaOon and training


•  Students have used Facebook for a long Ome now to connect with one another socially, as well as to work together in study groups.

•  Many educators now appreciate that as around 80% of their students are already on Facebook, they should take educaOon to them, rather than expect the students to come to their educaOonal systems.


In fact some research by Dr Rey Junco, showed College students prefer to use Facebook in their courses: http://blog.reyjunco.com/college-students-prefer-to-use-facebook-in-their-courses

“Almost every student in our sample gave us a variant of the same answer: all their friends/classmates are on Facebook, and it’s easy to use. In other words, Facebook has the user base in order to make academic conversaOons useful. Plus, since students are “always” on Facebook, it’s easy to see when new comments are made to a post from a class. Some of my research has shown that how students use Facebook is someOmes more important than Ome spent on the site in terms of grades and student engagement. Therefore, college faculty have an opportunity to engage students using Facebook and to help them use the site for educaOonal good.”


Some teachers even use a Facebook group as their LMS, see these arOcles for more on this: •  Facebook groups as LMS: a case study October 2012 http://www.irrodl.org/index.php/irrodl/article/view/1294/2295

Perdue’s Hotseat systems.

Perdue uses Facebook credenOals as a connector/login to other systems – meaning that students don’t need to have separate usernames and passwords. h]p://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=Wz6TUhcGf6s
