Data were collected from 162 students enrolled in a Speech class at the Mariano Marcos State University (MMSU). Data show that students connect to Facebook through internet cafes, mobile phones, internet connection at home and wi-fi. In terms of length of use, the students have been using Facebook for three to four years now. Lastly, they are spending less than 30 minutes to two hours a day.

Aware of this, the researchers conducted this study to determine the role of social media in the language learning experiences of students. Specifically, it identified the social media profile of the students and the platforms’ perceived use and advantages to vocabulary development. In realizing its objectives, the study employed a descriptive research design that involved 83 university students from a state university in the Philippines. Respondents answered an online survey questionnaire, which was tried out first to potential respondents before its actual use. The researchers used descriptive statistics to make sense of the data gathered. Results show that the students have high social media engagement as manifested by the number of social media accounts that they created for themselves (the majority have two or more accounts) and the number of hours that they...

The language and actuations of people form parts of the identity that they project (self-identity) and are constructed by others (social identity). This study aimed to provide a perspective on the creation of social identity on Facebook through the language codes used and topics discussed in the respondents’ Facebook newsfeeds. The researcher collected a total of 250 messages from the respondents’ accounts. A thematic analysis was carried out to highlight the identities projected by the respondents. Overall, seven social identities of the respondents emerged in the analyses. These are linguistic competence in L2, ability to fit in, patriotic sense, sense of openness, expressiveness, socialness, and religiosity.

Also, it identified the language strategies that predict success in overcoming the students’ ELL anxiety. Descriptive-correlational design was used in the study. It involved 171 Grades 9 and 10 indigenous peoples of selected schools in the province of Ilocos Norte. It used two gathering tools: Horowitz et al. (1986) Foreign Language Classroom Anxiety Scale (FLCAS) and Strategy Inventory for Language Learning (SILL) adopted from Oxford (1990). The data gathered from FLCAS made use of descriptive analysis to compute the means and SILL were analysed using averages, percentages and ranks. Pearson r and multiple regression analysis were used to determine the language strategies that could predict respondents’ language learning anxiety and language strategies.The salient findings are: 1) the selected grades 9 and 10 Indigenous peoples...
