Abstract
The technological revolution of the past two decades has changed communication, higher education, and the global society. As a result, there exists a wide gulf between the unlimited use of technology and higher education, particularly with respect to digital communications between professors and students. Web 2.0 digital technologies convey information in a different manner than before and allow for interaction with distance participants. Personal use of digital technologies for social media communication is one thing; social media use by professors for communication with students is another. Both aspects should be examined in detail to determine the future directions for global learning.
Highlights
Social media has become a catalyst for 21st century global higher education both as an administrative tool and an instrument for instruction (Aueretsch, Lehmann, & Wright, 2014; Greenhow, 2011)
Social media technology is rapidly becoming an integral part of the typical operation of higher education institutions, those competing in the global marketplace (Mok, 2015; Quershi & Nair, 2015)
Some would argue that the use of social media in global higher education has been accelerated by the rise of globalization and the need for improved communication globally (Mense, Garretson, Lemoine, & Richardson, 2018; Piven, Gandell, Lee, & Simpson, 2018)
Summary
Social media has become a catalyst for 21st century global higher education both as an administrative tool and an instrument for instruction (Aueretsch, Lehmann, & Wright, 2014; Greenhow, 2011). Social media technology is rapidly becoming an integral part of the typical operation of higher education institutions, those competing in the global marketplace (Mok, 2015; Quershi & Nair, 2015). The use of social media for instructional purposes in global higher education is becoming a topic for increased discussion to ascertain the educational and ethical issues for resolution. Some would argue that the use of social media in global higher education has been accelerated by the rise of globalization and the need for improved communication globally (Mense, Garretson, Lemoine, & Richardson, 2018; Piven, Gandell, Lee, & Simpson, 2018)
