Social Networking Sites

What is your most important reason for using social networking sites?

My most important reason for using social networking sites is to communicate and find friends. I use it to post my diary and my pictures, of course not private ones. Also I use it for my courses in the college. And to be aware for any updates that related to my friends and celebrities because I like to Read their news and see the pictures.

Is it possible for you to use them in teaching EFL/ESL? Concrete examples, please.

Yes, it’s possible for me to use social networking sites. Nowadays most of the teachers use social networking site to teach EFL/ESL. For example one of social network site that we use now is Schoology. Our teacher can communicate to us easily even when we are in our home. She can share notes, ppt, documents, home works and put our grade there. Also there are a lot of applications in our phones use to teach like Edmodo and Slidshare.
