the benefits of using SNSs in learning language

Since their emergence in 2005, Web 2.0 technologies have been advanced as potentially
transformative in the area of education in general and foreign language learning in particular.
Web 2.0 technologies are presenting new opportunities for developing diverse online learning
environments and enhancing interactivity, participation and feedback between students, their
peer groups and teachers. This article examines one of the most significant Web 2.0 tools,
Social Networking Sites (SNS), and focuses on Livemocha, an example of an online
community specifically aimed at encouraging collaboration between foreign language
learners. Results from the ethnographic approach adopted in the paper indicate that:
 (a) SNSs can be used by language learners to explore new relationships rather than merely
maintain existing ones and that
(b) longitudinal studies are required to achieve a better
understanding of the complex processes of mediation involved in online community formation
and maintenance.

The Impact of Second Language Education study shows the benefits of learning a second language are much broader than simply the ability to speak in another language. It reports on research that affirms the importance of second language education on intellectual potential, scholastic achievement, first language skills, citizenship and the economy.

The research conclusions in each area are as follows:

Intellectual Potential

• Students fluent in two language score higher in both verbal and non-verbal intelligence.
• Students studying a second language are superior in divergent thinking tasks and in memory ability and attention span.
  

Scholastic Achievement

• Second language students have higher test scores in reading, language and mathematics.
• Each additional year of second language training created a greater positive differential compared to students not receiving a second language.

Effect on First Language

• Second language education significantly strengthens first language skills in areas of reading, English vocabulary, grammar and communication skills.
• The earlier the start, the greater the positive effect on the first language.

Citizenship

• Students studying a second language have superior cross-cultural skills and adapt better to varying cultural contexts.
• Students studying a second language display greater cultural sensitivity.

Economic Potential

• There is an urgent requirement for qualified speakers of languages other than English in areas of science, technology, medicine and global commerce.
