Educational institutions and studen

Educational institutions and students use the Internet in general and online social networks in particular
as tools to convey information. One of the communication tools used by many students in
their daily life is Facebook. In recent
years, Facebook has been adopted extensively
for educational purposes (e.g.,
see Boon and Sinclair, 2009; Hendrix,
Chiarella, Hasman, Murphy, & Zafron,
2009).

Costs and Benefits of Facebook
the largest social network worldwide (Kirkpatrick, 2010). Today, it has more than 845 million
active users – users who accessed the website in the past 30 days (Facebook Newsroom, 2012)
and for whom using Facebook has become an integral part of their everyday life.
Facebook enables people to create profiles that comprise their personal information. Facebook
users connect to other users, called "friends". Each user owns a "wall" that shows the user's updates,
comments, uploaded photographs, and more. Users can exchange information using the
"wall" by sending messages or by using instant chat. Furthermore, users can create online networks
of friends and join groups of individuals sharing common interests, common ground, or
particular themes (Mack, Behler, Roberts, & Rimland, 2007). In addition, it is possible to upload
files and to correspond through personal or general messages. With all these features, Facebook
allows educational institutions and students to create a central platform for media sharing, communications
around social and academic issues, and drawing the community’s awareness of certain
subjects.
Facebook can be useful for students in their social life as well as for academic purposes, as it allows
for activities such as getting assistance or sharing notes. There are also disadvantages in using
Facebook, such as waste of time (Ulusu, 2010), procrastination and changing priorities (Vivian,
2011), waste of money (because of additional expenses for surfing), and even addiction ( Kuss
& Griffiths, 2011; Ulusu, 2010).
This research examines the perceived costs and benefits of using Facebook by undergraduate students
in demanding faculties, such as students of engineering. The purpose of this study is to analyze
and reveal the various costs and benefits that students have in using Facebook. This paper
includes a background about previous studies in this field, the presentation of the research questions,
explanation of the methodology used to examine these questions, exhibition of the results, a
discussion about the significance of the results, and finally the conclusions from the research.
