| Summary: | We met a class of students of technical college to know their uses of the Social Network Sites as part of their school experience. Using a methodology combining collective interviews and the analysis of online data from students’ interactions with their class-group Messenger, we examine the logic at work and question the interest of this instrumented class group to their school career. The concept of experience, as conduct of high school students in their exchange activities, is central and highlights the importance of the class group to them. If the educational effectiveness of this communication device remains ambivalent, it reveals itself, by its properties of confidentiality and instantaneity, a powerful vector of socialization between peers, away from the eyes of adults.
