An educational blog (Edublog) is a group collaboration software tool based on Web server technology. Social network services (SNS) is the grouping of individuals into specific groups, like small rural communities or a neighborhood subdivision, if you will. When we add Edublog plus SNS equal double value .This study examines the use of an Edublog and SNS to facilitate teaching and learning in an academic setting. We present a case study about how an Edublog and SNS were used to support collaborative activities in a class at an undergraduate- level. Our findings suggest that Edublog and SNS can support collaborative knowledge creation and sharing in an academic environment. Success in attempts to provide such support may depend on: familiarity with Edublog technology, careful planning for implementation and use, appropriate class size, and motivation of students to engage in discovery learning.
