dc.description.abstractCurrently, new media and social network sites (SNSs) assume a relevant role in our society and in our daily practices (Boyd and Ellison 2008; Lister et al 2009; Watkins 2009; Papacharissi 2011). This has necessarily an impact on the way we learn together and we cannot ignore its potential, regarding collaborative learning. This trend is explored by research spanning through several areas and, in what regards higher levels of education, Facebook assumes growingly a prominent position, being more widely investigated as an instructional tool in the classroom than most SNSs (Tess 2013: A63). From the perspective of teaching and learning, Web 2.0 resources are seen as enablers of a vision where the student will find information potentially contradicting the knowledge acquired through the traditional formal learning process (Santos 2009). This feature leads to a continuous discussion of the facts, topics and subjects having, on one side, the consciousness of the existence of a common set of formally established knowledge, shared in a given community, and, on the other side, the joint reflection and debate within this same community. This new reality, where the roles of the teacher and of the student (or the roles of who teaches and of who learns) become fuzzier also brings the need for new ways to understand, describe and explain the learning process and the ways in which it develops. It is used, in this paper, the concept of social e-learning (Martins et al 2012), building on the connectivist perspective (Siemens 2004, 2006, 2008). A concrete format for the implementation of a social e-learning model is proposed and an experience is presented and discussed. The e-learning model presented has been successfully applied in a training course in the field of business communication, held at Citeforma – an institution with a relevant track record in the use of innovative features and resources for vocational education and training, in Portugal.en
