description To help students prepare for the resit exam of the mathematics Bagrut (Israeli matriculation) of 2013, the Center for Educational Technology established a virtual review session using Facebook, for four days before the exam. 614 students and 16 teachers participated. We examined three central questions, each about using Facebook to prepare for the mathematics Bagrut: What opportunities for learning were created? What are the students' opinions? What are the teachers' opinions? Analysis of the posts on Facebook revealed five types of situations with potential for learning. Answers to on-line questionnaires show that both students and teachers hold positive opinions towards the solution for learning provided by Facebook. We recommend researching the opportunities for learning afforded by the social networks. [For the complete proceedings, see ED597799.]
