Social Networks Supporting the Higher Education in the Czech Republic
Original language description
The paper presents results of survey focused on social networking, particularly of the exploitation of social networks in the higher education. The research question was what social networks are preferred and who their users are (from the point of gender and study programme). Moreover, mobile devices were also investigated, as they often are the means how students' access to social networks. Data were collected by the questionnaire from the research sample of 205 students of the Faculty of Informatics and Management, University of Hradec Kralove, Czech Republic, matriculated in IT and Management study programmes in 2013/14 aca-demic year. Three social networks were detected as the most frequently accessed (Facebook, Google+ and LinkedIn) by both male and female users but differ-ences were discovered between the groups of IT students and Management stu-dents. The collected data verified didactic recommendations defined by other au-thors on how the potential of social networks can be used towards independent learning on the higher education level.
