What is Learn Social?
Learn Social is a web browser-based platform which has been developed for English language learners by
Knowledge Transmission Ltd. The Learn Social platform offers many different English language courses with
content targeted at 16-24 year olds.
How is Learn Social different?
Learn Social recognizes that learning a language is
about being able to communicate. Your students
need to be able to take their knowledge of English
and use it in real interaction and communication
Most platforms for language learners provide
interactive exercises which work well for grammar,
vocabulary and listening or reading comprehension.
But what about speaking and writing? Computer
programs cannot assess those skills.
Learn Social has the answer.
Learn Social has all the activities your students
need PLUS social media tools to allow
communication between students and between a
student and their teacher.
How does it work?
Whenever students have to complete a speaking or
writing exercise, they first submit their work to
their Study Group for review. Students can see one
another’s answers and give feedback. Students can
improve their answers before submitting them to the
teacher for the final grade and feedback.
What are the benefits of Social Learning?
Social Learning involves peer review which is
motivating for students and produces better results.
Peer review:
• creates a real audience for students, encouraging them to speak or write in an authentic way.
• encourages the learner to reflect on their work and to watch out for common mistakes.
• is collaborative and communicative.
