Abstract
The nature and face of the educational landscape continues to change, and one of the ongoing challenges remains?how to best integrate social technologies as a tool for engaging learners in meaningful ways. Additionally, with a growing population of Generation X and Y students, the traditional forms of learning in the classroom have taken a backseat to the more engaging means of online, community, and "social learning." This chapter will discuss the emergence of social learning and will provide a list of innovative tools that can be used to improve student engagement, enhance instructional strategies, and encourage new learning heading into the future.
