摘要：The aim of this study is to determine the perceptions of students about the use of Twitter within education. Participants of the study were 17 junior class Education Faculty students from the Computer Education and Instructional Technology Department at a private university in Turkey. At the beginning of the course, the instructor requested students to sign up for Twitter and follow her tweets. Then the instructor created a hashtag for the lesson and over the duration of the course, shared course announcements and related papers using this hashtag. Students also tweeted about summary course content covered during face-to-face lessons. At the end of the course, a questionnaire captured students’ perceptions about the use of Twitter within education through five open-ended questions. Content analysis was applied to analyse the qualitative data.
