dc.description.abstractBy many, the corner stone of mastering the foreign language is to have a rich repertoire of lexical items of that language. Furthermore, teaching and learning vocabulary can be a very challenging and time consuming process for both teachers and students. Thus, students adapt various strategies and approaches in order to improve their vocabulary knowledge. Eventually, the current study tends to explore teachers’ and students’ attitudes towards the use of social networks as one of the most recent tools that may help in improving the target language vocabulary. It is then hypothesized that social networking is effective in developing the learners’ vocabulary background. To investigate the hypothesis and to achieve the research aims, two questionnaires were administered one for the teachers and one for students at the English department, Larbi Ben M’Hidi University. In the light of the obtained results, it can be concluded that both teachers and learners consider social networks as an effective pedagogical technique to enhance students’ vocabulary knowledge. Subsequently, it is recommended that teachers seek the right mechanisms to adopt social networks in educational settings, so that students would develop the vocabulary background in a relaxing and entertaining atmosphere.ar
