INSTAFRENCH: INVESTIGATING THE USE OF SOCIAL MEDIA AND STUDENT-SELECTED IMAGES TO SUPPORT L2 WRITING

Social media has quickly become an integral part of day-to-day interaction for many university students. By infusing usage of the popular social networking site Instagram into the curriculum of three French 1002 classes, this exploratory study aimed to investigate the role of image as a tool to support learning writing in the L2 in a lower division French class. Data showed that student perception on the effect of images on their comprehension of their classmate’s writing as well as their classmate’s understanding of their own writing were positive.
