A short post, but very pointed--if Facebook worked like an LMS, no real community would ever develop. Questions the whole idea of closed educational systems.

    • What if Facebook worked like Blackboard (or pretty much any other LMS)?


      Imagine if every fifteen weeks Facebook:


      • shut down all the groups you belonged to,
      • deleted all your forum posts,
      • removed all the photos, videos, and other files you had shared, and
      • forgot who your friends were.
