Abstract

The present study aimed to explore pre-service EFL teachersâ¿¿ attitudes towards language learning through social media. Additionally, the study attempted to explore the role of social media in their language learning experiences. The study was conducted with 120 pre-service EFL teachers. The data were gathered through a questionnaire. The findings indicated that pre-service EFL teachers regard social media as a regular component of their foreign language learning experiences. In the light of the results, it is recommended that teacher training programs involve some components concerning how to employ social media as a means of fostering interaction and communication among learners.
