The challenges of learning English skills and the integration of social media and video conferencing tools to help ESL learners coping with the challenges during COVID-19 pandemic: a literature review
Yong Hua Ying, Winson Eng Wei Siang, Maslawati Mohamad
Abstract
During the COVID-19 pandemic, the abrupt closures of all learning institutions have caused English as a Second Language (ESL) learners to have significant difficulties learning the English language especially for speaking skills. Speaking is one of the most important skills to learn because it is the primary mode of communication around the world. However, the majority of ESLlearners are still trying to improve their English speaking abilities. Since the implementation of the COVID-19 lockdowns, e-learning has been a well-known solution all over the world. Learners and educators need more time to adjust to online teaching and learning because most of them are exploring new technical innovations and strategies to be used in the classroom. As a result, this study includes a literature review on the challenges ESL learners encounter in learning speaking skills, as well as the use of social media and video conferencing tools to teach speaking skills. Lack of motivation and self-confidence, fear, hesitation, and limited vocabulary are some of the challenges faced by ESL learners. Hence, it is vital to determine the technology intervention used in teaching and developing speaking skills among these learners based on previous study. During the COVID-19 pandemic, some of the interventions in teaching speaking skills included utilizing social media and video conferencing applications like Facebook, WhatsApp, and others for online teaching and learning. Educators of ESLmight then pick the ones that would work best in their particular classroom.

Structural and pedagogical problems
hinder the use of technology
Three out of four teachers in Brazil show support for the use
of artificial intelligence (AI) as a teaching tool. They also say that
the technology has impacted education both positively, with faster
access to information, and negatively, as students lose their focus.
The data can be found in an unprecedented survey by Semesp
Institute, an organization that represents higher education
providers. The study was carried out between March 18 and 31
with 444 public and private school teachers from kindergarten to
high school located in all regions of Brazil.
In the study, 74.8 percent of respondents partially or totally
agree with the use of artificial intelligence in teaching. Despite this,
just over a third (39.2%) of them said they always use it as a
teaching tool.
Even though educators believe it is important to use AI, they
also report structural and pedagogical problems that prevent or
hinder its employment. Further issues were reported in
connection with its excessive use, especially by pupils. Among
these problems are the lack of internet at school, the lack of
training for teachers and also greater difficulty in holding students’
attention.
“I sense students have become more dependent on research
tools and immediate answers and have a hard time having
resilience and patience and acting as problem solvers,” an
anonymous teacher who took part in the survey said.
Another one said: “Technology has advanced, but sometimes
access to it at school is not satisfactory. Poor internet connection.
The computer lab is a restricted space. No Microsoft Office in the
mobile lab. The use of cell phones is impractical as students have
no internet. Now, even the internet is restricted to teachers.”
Just under half of the teachers (45.7%) declared that both
teachers and students have access to computers and the internet
where they teach. Another seven percent answered there is still
no access to technology in their schools.
Teachers also report that technology has made students lose
their focus. “The school can’t keep up with the use of new technologies at the speed that the students can, which leads to a
mismatch between the lesson taught and the lesson that the
students want. The unbridled use of social media and the high level
of exposure of young people to these networks have undermined
teachers’ contact with students,” one of the teachers stated.

Multiliteracy: the new basic skill for the 21st century classroom
We increasingly engage with texts that draw meaning beyond
written words from other sources. Images, sound, video clips and
gestures (alone and in combination) all play central roles in how
we communicate and interpret content.
This multimedia approach is especially evident in online
platforms and social media, where a single piece of content may
blend written language with videos, graphics, photos and other
visual elements. This change requires us to rethink what we mean
by literacy.
Nearly 30 years ago, a group of scholars, the New London
Group, recognised the need for a broader understanding of
literacy after observing a growing gap between the literacy needs
students faced outside of school and the print-based practices still
dominant in classrooms.
They introduced a concept of multiliteracies which
acknowledges that we now engage with texts that use multiple
modes of communication. We engage with these texts in different
media environments, each with their own practices and strategies.
The concept incorporates the literacy skills needed to acquire,
interpret, produce and evaluate the multimodal and multimedia
texts we encounter today.
For literacy education, this shift means updating classroom
aims, content and activities. The group developed a pedagogical
framework to help schools respond to the growing inequalities and
rapid changes in technology and the textual landscape.
The process starts with examining pupils’ everyday literacy
practices and experiences together. Then these practices are
approached analytically by introducing a metalanguage for
discussing the resources they use to create meaning. Students can
use this metalanguage to critically evaluate their literacy practices
which helps them understand how different modes of
communication work and how to use them effectively.
The pedagogy of multiliteracies also emphasises the design
and production of multimodal texts and collaborative learning in
linguistically and culturally diverse groups, rather than individual
reading activities. […]
Multiliteracies are already included in many European
curricula, and the European framework for key competencies for
lifelong learning defines literacy in a way that aligns with the
concept of multiliteracies. These policy documents and guidelines
provide a foundation for integrating multiliteracies into literacy
education.
Yet, research shows that there is still work to be done to
incorporate teaching multimodal literacy practices into
mainstream literacy education. While many teachers do include
multimodal texts in their classroom activities, tensions between
multimodal and traditional practices still exist.
Studies point out the huge challenges teachers face when they
adapt their teaching to the redefined literacies, and there are
concerns about teachers’ preparedness to teach multiliteracies.
They need support with training and appropriate materials. Teacher educators and policy makers must ensure that teachers
have substantial and concrete support.

PROFESSOR DE LÍNGUA INGLESA:
THE DIGITAL FRONTIER OF FIDELITY
The Nuances of Micro-cheating: Social Practice or Digital
Paranoia ?
In the contemporary landscape of interpersonal
relationships, the ubiquity of social media has recalibrated
the traditional parameters of faithfulness. The emergence of
the term "micro-cheating" serves as a testament to this shift,
encompassing a spectrum of subtle, digitally-mediated
behaviors that, while devoid of physical consummation,
suggest an emotional or erotic redirection. Such actions—
ranging from the seemingly innocuous "double-tap" on an expartner’s archived photograph to the deliberate
concealment of encrypted message threads—occupy a
contentious "grey area" that challenges the binary definition
of infidelity.
From a socio-psychological perspective, micro-cheating is
often interpreted not as an isolated act of betrayal, but as a
symptom of the "validation economy." The digital
architecture of modern platforms encourages a constant
pursuit of external approval, where a notification can
function as a dopamine-inducing ego boost. Consequently,
the ambiguity of intent becomes the focal point of the
debate: is the digital interaction a legitimate exercise of
social autonomy or a covert erosion of the primary
partnership’s exclusivity? Proponents of the concept argue
that the "secrecy criterion" is the ultimate litmus test—if an
interaction is intentionally shielded from a partner’s view, the
threshold of trust has likely been breached.
Conversely, skeptics caution against the pathologization of
digital sociability. They argue that the expansion of the
"cheating" umbrella to include minor online interactions
fosters a climate of hyper-vigilance and domestic
surveillance, potentially undermining the very foundation of
trust it seeks to protect. By labeling these behaviors as
"micro-infidelities," we risk imposing a panoptic gaze on our partners, where every "friend request" is scrutinized for
subversive intent.
For the language educator, this phenomenon provides a rich
semiotic field for classroom reflection. Aligning with the
National Common Curricular Base (BNCC), the study of such
themes transcends mere grammatical decoding. It invites
students to engage in "multiliteracies," analyzing how
meaning is negotiated across digital platforms and how
language (visual, verbal, and symbolic) shapes social ethics.
In this sense, the English language is not merely a system of
signs to be mastered, but a tool for critical agency in a
globalized, hyper-connected world.
In the sentence: "The 'secrecy criterion' is a litmus test;
nevertheless, some critics argue it leads to
surveillance." the connector "nevertheless" introduces

With the rapid advancement of generative
artificial intelligence (GenAI), teachers have been
thrust into a new and ever-shifting classroom
reality. The public, including many students, now
has widespread access to GenAI tools and large
language models (LLMs). Students sometimes use
these tools with schoolwork. School boards have
taken different approaches to regulating or
integrating tech in classrooms. Teachers,
meanwhile, find themselves responding to these
paradigm shifts while juggling student needs and
wider expectations AI raises.
There are many questions about the
purpose of education, including questions around
academic integrity and how education can uphold
fairness and equity. Questions include: How can
students successfully navigate the use of these
tools safely, effectively and ethically? How can
schools prepare students for the future as
organizations and institutions scramble to
determine how to respond to or integrate aspects of
AI? Will harnessing AI’s potential impact critical
thinking and other cognitive skills? Teachers are
uniquely positioned to help guide students as they
grapple with the existential and social implications
of AI alongside practical concerns for their own and
students’ futures. Teachers cannot face this
complex challenge alone — they need support and
to feel skilled and empowered to fulfil this important
role.
There’s a growing international consensus
echoed by calls to action that teachers are
essential players as learners develop AI literacy.
Despite growing resources, the development of AI
technology continues to outpace implementation
support and essential training for teachers. This
widening gap between teacher competencies and
the demands of an AI-infused classroom is
unsustainable. This is not merely about keeping
pace with technology; it’s about equipping teachers
to guide the next generation in a world transformed
by AI. By empowering teachers with skills and
confidence in AI use, they can continue to guide
students and shape students’ critical and
responsible engagement with this technology.
Teachers cannot do this alone.
Successfully integrating AI into education requires
a concerted and collaborative effort from all
stakeholders within the educational ecosystem.
Together, these partners can help establish clear,
strategic mandates for AI integration and dedicate
robust funding for essential tools and
comprehensive training and research to foster
innovative spaces where educators and
researchers can experiment and study practices.
Research is needed to assess the broader effects
of AI use, for example, on critical thinking and
cognitive offloading, to evaluate and understand
the impacts of this technology in education. Supports are needed to ensure that AI adoption is
not haphazard, but strategic and equitable across
all jurisdictions.
Implementation should also consider
teacher burnout and the existing responsibilities
that teachers carry. What can be removed, and
what robust supports can be provided so teachers
can take this on without compromising their wellbeing or effectiveness? It’s time for policymakers to
recognize that investing in teachers is one of the
most powerful ways we can invest in our students
and in a better future for all of us.
