Abstract

The purpose of this research is to display the role of social networking, social media and sites, as well as their influences on the willingness to communicate in English as a second language. The research started with illustrating the idea of building the social networking followed by identifying and demonstrating the current state of network analysis. Then the points of weaknesses and strengths of applying the social media generally in education, and specifically on learning English were discussed and revealed.  Willingness to communicate (WTC) as a new concept and trend in learning and acquiring the second language was explained; illustrating and demonstrating its evolutionary stages and models within different periods of time. Finally, the effect of the social networking sites on the interaction of the language learners and their willingness to communicate in the second language was discussed via various conducted studies.
