Abstract

Facebook has attracted large attention from teachers and has created a paradigm shift in the field of education. Facebook has become a learning space for teachers to enhance teacher’s professional learning. This study investigates the potential offered by Facebook for the enhancement of teacher professional learning in integrating technology into teaching practices. The study results showed that participation in the Facebook group spurred teachers to continually explore new techniques and ideas in the use of technology to support classroom activities. Participation in the Facebook group also helped teachers to increase self-efficacy and self-confidence. Teachers became more confident to use new technological tools to reach specific curricular goals. The findings of this study provided evidence that learning in a virtual space has the potential to encourage teachers in transforming their instructional practices.
