My Chapter 2 : Literature Review


Our Research Design Task (Survey Research)













My Limitations of the Study

This study investigates the lecturers’ perceptions on the use of social network services (SNSs) in the ESL writing classroom. It will be limited to only the UiTM APB English lecturers from UiTM campuses in Malaysia. This research based only on structured interview conducted. Though effort was made to certify respondents give true and honest answers, their validity of their views cannot be established. Furthermore, this is a qualitative research hence the findings could not be generalized.    

My Significance of the Study

The study is apparently one of the first few attempts to investigate how UiTM APB English lecturers’ perceive the use of social network services (SNSs) and to identify the strengths and weaknesses of integrating SNSs in the Malaysian ESL writing classroom context. Therefore, this study may provide some insights which will allow for further research in this area of interest. It will provide some perceptions concerning the integration of SNSs in the ESL writing classroom in the Malaysian context and furthermore offer lecturers some ideas for activities to improve the students’ writing skills through the use of SNSs in the ESL writing classroom.
