Literature Review

An advanced search was conducted in the CSSCI database (Chinese Social Sciences Citation Index), doctoral dissertation database of CNKI in Chinese, Springer link and SCI and SSCI source journals on the Web of Science in English. The search criteria were “(subject: social media/website)”, (subject: language + Chinese) and (subject: education + language)”. The time span was not limited. The search results were manually screened for invalid literature, and these studies were analyzed and summarized.

There are four main social media platforms, Facebook, Instagram, Twitter and YouTube, which are widely used in education. Facebook is a popular social networking site worldwide. Like many other new technologies, it has the potential of teaching and learning because it has unique built-in functions and provides inspiration for teaching, society and technology (Wang, Woo, Quek, Yang & Mei, 2012). There are many studies on using Facebook for language education. Compared with Facebook, there are few studies on the use of Instagram, Twitter and YouTube in language education.
