Abstract

Many kinds of applications were developed to support learners in ubiquitous learning environment. Among that, social networking software (SNS) plays an increasingly important role in various educational settings. In this paper, we integrated a phonic SNS papa into language leaning in ubiquitous learning environment. The research investigated the general usages of papa and examined that to what extent the use of papa could effectively improve language learning. The results indicated that the use of papa as a SNS does promote the language learning among lower age students. The ability to speak or talk is also improved.
