How Could We Use
Facebook to Teach Writing?
Reading and
Writing are interlinked. Reading messages, friend’s requests, notifications and
going through a friend’s profile would develop one’s reading skill. Through
reading, students can acquire information, knowledge, a large vocabulary and a
good command over the language. The more a person reads, the more effectively
he will write. Writing blog, paragraphs, essays and stories can be implemented.
This will improve one’s standard of writing as it is a process of creation and
not a mechanical production. In Facebook, writing on the wall is one special
feature. This enhances a person’s writing skill and helps a learner to
establish a healthy rapport with one’s peers. The instructor can also tag
pictures and ask students to comment on it. This will sharpen their observation
skill and critical thinking.
