Effects of Sharing Translation Activities on Twitter

This study investigated the effects of sharing translation activities in college English classes. A total of 124 students participated in the study with four conditions: (1) Control Group, (2) In-class Group (sharing translation activities orally during class), (3) LMS Group(sharing translation activities with school LMS), (4) Twitter Group (sharing translation activities on Twitter). Students were pre/post tested with translation activities/English writing composition and the results were compared with SPSS. The study showed that all sharing groups reduced the number of errors in translation activities. However, Twitter group showed the least number of translation errors and also, they greatly improved overall English writing composition. This shows that sharing translation activities have an impact on students’ overall English competencies.
