Enhancing Grammar Proficiency Through Social Media-Based Flipped Classrooms: A Review
Abstract
This paper explores the enhancement of grammar proficiency through the integration of social media within flipped classroom models, particularly in the context of English as a Foreign Language (EFL) instruction. It examines the potential of social media to facilitate collaborative learning, promote engagement, and provide immediate feedback, thereby enriching the educational experience both inside and outside the classroom. The study highlights the importance of educator collaboration and the establishment of communities of practice to effectively integrate technology into grammar instruction. By analyzing various research findings, the paper aims to provide insights and recommendations for future research, emphasizing the transformative impact of social media on language acquisition and grammar learning. Ultimately, this work advocates for innovative pedagogical strategies that leverage digital tools to foster a more interactive and reflective learning environment.
