Can the use of social media facilitate student participation in the large lecture class? This paper explores this question by presenting original data collected in the context of a freshman Technology large-lecture course in which microblogging service Yammer was introduced mid-semester and used for student participation. Students were assessed pre- and post-intervention through online surveys that asked about perceptions of classroom interactions and learning, as well as measures of communication apprehension and technology readiness. We analyze the set of 69 pre- and post-intervention survey pairs in order to identify the relationships among communication apprehension, technology readiness, and comfort with classroom participation, both face to face and through microblogging.
