Abstract

Thanks to the widespread use of social media among individuals, the new site for the public pedagogy can be based on 'fandom', which is strongly related to fan-related practices on websites, forums, pages, and channels. These venues are based on shared interests and enjoyment and are visited by thousands of people every day. Inspired by increasing popularity, fandom has been used in academic education for the last decade. In line with this, there is also a growing research interest in the use of fandom in foreign/second language teaching; however, this should be within a purposeful way to enrich the opportunities for online learning. Therefore, this chapter sets out to provide practical implications about the operationalization of fandom in online language instruction to promote interaction among learners, which is quite necessary, particularly in the time of school closures due to the pandemic.
