Evaluation of a language learning application in Facebook

Facebook applications are more convenient and flexible to use, since students tend to invest a good deal of time in the use of such technologies, given that Facebook retains the educational quality, as it is widely used in instructional contexts. To this direction, our Facebook application promotes language learning. Furthermore, it incorporates machine learning techniques in order to offer user classification based on multiple user characteristics. Our resulting Facebook language learning application has been evaluated by both instructors and Facebook users. The results of the evaluation showed that Facebook provides opportunities within curriculum education and learning and user classification in such applications promotes the cognitive procedure.
