The Benefits and Implications of Learning English through Facebook GroupsNeny Isharyanti
Presented in GloCALL 2015, Daejeon, Korea, 12-14 November 2015
Abstract
The benefits of Social Networking Sites (SNSs) for academic purposes have been extensively researched. In the studies of social capital and how through SNSs social capital can be formed and maintained, some studies have suggested that SNSs may build strong network and such network could benefit students in terms of educational attainment, achievement, and psychosocial factors (Ye, 2006; Ellison, Steinfield, & Lampe, 2007; Phua & Jin, 2011; Lin, Peng, Kim, Yeun Kim, & LaRose, 2012; Tamam, 2013) . However, the studies also found some barriers and implications of SNSs in the process of learning.
Most of the studies in social capital in SNSs were conducted in the context of formal education settings, in which SNSs were treated either as a part of certain courses, or relevant to students' formal education status. This study is going to be conducted in the context of informal discussion in English learning Facebook groups, with various types of members, both formal students and those who are interested in learning English. In particular, the study is going to employ the framework of social capital and actor-network theory in analyzing the discourse among the learners in order to find out the influencing factors and types of social capital that may be beneficial in learning English.

Abstract
Social Networking Sites (SNSs) has become a ubiquitous tool in human's life. It does not only serve personal purposes of socializing and communication, some studies have also explored the benefits and the downsides of using them for professional purposes in various lines of jobs. In the case of educators, there is generally a positive tone in regards to the use of SNSs, suggesting that they can be useful in developing and improving professional competences among pre-service and in-service teachers (Forte, Humphreys, & Park, 2012; Power, 2013; Bissessar, 2014; Manca & Ranieri, 2014; Soomro, Kale, & Zai, 2014; Sumuer, Esfer, & Yildirim, 2014).
This study is going to explore the network and relationship among actors in SNSs, particularly on identifying actors that are influential in the network and the types of relationship among actors, as well as how the strength of the network contributes on the social capital of the teachers in their profession. Using the framework of computer-mediated discourse analysis and social capital applied on conversations in Facebook groups of English teachers from Indonesia, the study is expected to shed light on the best practices of informal teacher development through SNSs.
