Abstract
Instructors often use social media as an extra platform for sharing information and therefore extend the classroom beyond classroom walls. However, when more thoughtfully integrated in pedagogy and tied to specific desired learning outcomes, social media may help accomplish more: strong engagement and self-reported comprehension, aided by the development of communication and team leadership skills. This exploratory study centers on a team-driven, social media issues advocacy assignment appropriate for nearly any academic field.
