MARTINS, José et al. A Proposal for a Social e-Learning Model. RISTI [online]. 2015, n.16, pp.92-107. ISSN 1646-9895.  https://doi.org/10.17013/risti.16.92-107.

By understanding the need for a social, collaborative and participative learning process, an analysis to the existent learning and pedagogical models was made in order to identify the existence of a basis for the development of an e-learning course implemented over a social network site. As a complement, a systematic literature review on social media adoption and use was made, particularly focusing the adoption for educational purposes and aiming at achieving the set of variables which might impact the implementation of s-learning activities. The combination of these activities resulted in the presentation of a new learning assessment model designed to be applied over e-learning courses implemented on social media. With this in mind, a description on the referred assessment model is presented, thus considering the need for a comprehensive characterization of the inherent assessment process and inherent activities and technologies. Through the execution of the research and pedagogical activities performed in the scope of the present project it was also possible to acknowledge that learning activities performed over social networks sites are a solution for improving student's willingness and commitment towards studying and learning.
