Abstract
This paper is a report on a case study of the use of Facebook to augment an undergraduate Korean language teacher education class through discussions and use of student-generated data. Results showed that students had positive attitudes toward the use of Facebook for class discussion compared to the comprehensive Blackboard e-learning system, mainly because of the ease of sharing and the integration of student-generated data into face-to-face activities.
