Social media is an application that uses Web 2.0 technology and gives users the opportunity to produce materials in various forms such as text, audio, and video that can be shared with other users. So indirectly, it can be used in learning a foreign language. Therefore this study aims to critically analyze and synthesize the research trends of foreign language learning through social media. Thus the Education Resources Information Center (ERIC) database was used to find articles related to the objectives of the study from 2017 to 2021. The PRISMA model was used in this study to meet the objectives of the study. An article search using social media and foreign language keywords through the database has found a total of 39906 articles. However, only 14 articles met the requirements and were selected for further analysis. Overall, this study has the potential to be further developed by researchers who are interested in the study of aging language learning research trends through social media with a longer study period and may also involve other languages.
This article discusses the level of M-learning needed in Arabic language learning. This was a quantitative study using questionnaires as a research instrument for obtaining data. A total of 272 students were involved in this study. The method of analysis used was descriptive. The data obtained were analysed using the SPSS version 24.0 software to obtain percentage, mean, and standard deviation. The findings showed that respondents' perceptions of factors affecting the implementation of mobile learning and the level of readiness of mobile learning are at a high level. Hence, the concept of mobile learning is very useful in learning Arabic in this new era of learning. In addition, the findings showed that students had sufficient knowledge and awareness to use mobile technology in their educational environment. This study is very useful for those who want to develop mobile learning applications.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
