A novel model for social networks outcomes in e-learning

E-learning is emerging as a popular approach of education in the workplace by virtue of its flexibility to access, just-in-time delivery. Most e-learning software is mainly focused in content dissemination and group work, but the possibilities that Internet LMSs could offer go further. Recently, there has been research work focused on Web communities for learning and their formulation as Social Networks. Several online social networks-relatedmodules were proposed for an e-learning platform, called personal learning environment box, creating a space for sharing and collaboration turning students more active in shaping their learning process. Here we offer a model that we hope will be useful for e-learning in social networks
