You will have to try <strong>and</strong> get your sound files to work, Your own sound is what you need. The<br />

copyright laws are the same everywhere so don’t use the work <strong>of</strong> others. If the site provides<br />

samples then I would imagine you can use them if its open source media. Pete<br />

Conclusions<br />

This paper was designed to illuminate the educational potential <strong>of</strong> Facebook through discussion <strong>of</strong><br />

the context <strong>of</strong> use <strong>and</strong> why it was selected, a particular case study, <strong>and</strong> the illustrated narrative account <strong>of</strong><br />

one tutor about his experience <strong>of</strong> using Facebook. Within the project described in the case study, it is clear<br />

that the web as a resource <strong>and</strong> Web 2.0 technologies provided learning resources which enabled both the<br />

problem-based-learning design <strong>of</strong> the activity <strong>and</strong> also the successful completion <strong>of</strong> the project by all the<br />

students before the assignment cut-<strong>of</strong>f date. It also illustrates how students became resources to each other,<br />

just as they will be within their pr<strong>of</strong>essional communities <strong>of</strong> practice, through social networking. The aim<br />

now is to shift the focus from the tutor to the learners. Current <strong>and</strong> future research centres on the students’<br />

attitudes towards the use <strong>of</strong> such technologies <strong>and</strong> their perceptions <strong>of</strong> value.<br />
