Abstract

In the educational field, new technology appears all the time, making the teaching and learning process more interesting and effective. In this scenario, one of the tools that has gained prominence is educational social networks. Despite the progress made, there is still no consolidated field of study for educational social networks. Therefore, the objective of this research was to identify the resources desired by students in this type of network. For this, 369 questionnaires were given, and to analyze the results, cluster analysis and discriminant analysis were used. The results reveal that the most relevant resources in an educational social network are the note consultation service, the evaluation of various aspects of the institution, and the sending of suggestions and improvements. Among the less important resources were the consultation of menus of canteens at the university restaurant and the sharing and evaluation of newsrooms. These results highlight the idea that an educational social network can contribute to collaborative learning and closer relationships between students and teachers.
