Online Social Networking Innovative Grammar Teaching

Agenda Why should we use social networking in the classroom? Action Research Results Sample Lesson Plans Classroom Facebook Page Group Work: Create a List of Classroom Activities Using Social Networking Share Ideas

Why Social Networking? Facebook has more than 500 million active users, 70% of which are outside the United States. (Facebook, n.d.) There are now more Facebook users between the ages of than (Abell, 2009) YouTube is the second largest search engine in the world. (Hill, 2008) An estimated 12 million American adults are bloggers, and 57 million read blogs. (Lenhart & Fox, 2006)

Personal Results Students exposed to the social networking curriculum both learned the grammar better, and reported higher levels of motivation. Students in the social networking group scored, on average, a 98% on the grammar quiz at the end of the unit, as opposed to a 76% by the control group. On a ten item questionnaire designed to measure student motivation, all student responses either remained level or increased after the two week unit using social networking. Those students in the control group reported, on average, no change in motivation levels after the two week unit.

Sample Lesson Plan

Classroom Facebook Page

What About Me? What if I don’t have easy access to computers in my classroom? Provide homework online: Look up specific sites, create a blog, read and write a paragraph responding to a blog, post on classroom Facebook page, etc. Make copies for classroom use of material you find on social networking sites. What if my students aren’t interested in Facebook? Facebook is a rich source of genuine language, and they will likely find something to enjoy if required to create a page. Use other sources of online social networking that you think they will enjoy: YouTube, Twitter, blogs, etc. The possibilities are nearly limitless!

Group Work Discuss in small groups: What is your specific teaching context? What access do you have to technology and computers? How can you use social networking in your own classroom? Create a list all the learning activities you can think of that use social networking sites. Tape your list to the wall for others to read. Once you’re done, circle around the room and read the other groups’ ideas.
