Abstract

The world in the twenty-first century has witnessed a scientific and intellectual revolution in the field of the educational process for foreign languages, characterized by electronic and technological development embodied in social media, which in turn contributed to enhancing educational institutions at all levels to improve the learner's productive efficiency, develop their skills, and achieve scientific objectives represented in speaking English, French, and even other world languages, as well as interacting in them inside and outside the institution.This is evident in their academic and social outcomes.The main objective of this study is to shed light on the importance of social networking sites such as Facebook and Telegram in learning foreign languages, and to discuss how to use them as an important resource for information and an effective communication technology, opening up to curricula and outputs of value that focus on the quality of teaching and achieving a level based on the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages, enabling progression from simple communication to complete fluency and the ability to handle academically complex topics.
