Abstract :
In recent years, the number of users in social networking sites regularly increased. Especially younger people spend a tremendous time on social networking sites like Facebook, YouTube, Flickr, Google+ and many more. Since obviously this is the place on the World-Wide-Web where our students spent their spare time, we integrated social networking sites in our day-to-day learning scenarios. This is on the one hand to start working with our students where they feel comfortable, and on the other hand to allow to foster the communication among our students about the topic of the lectures.
