Abstract

Can the social network Twitter help enhance communication, participation and language skills in English of students? This contribution, materialized in a teaching innovation project, reflects the experience of creating a twitter profile in two courses taught in the Degrees in Business Administration and in Economics of the University of Cantabria, one of them an EMI course. The analysis of the surveys provided before and after the course do not show very favorable results regarding the use of the social network, despite the functions we believe it presents as an educational tool. Although the ratings of the students who have interacted with the Twitter profile present higher results, there are no improvements in the perceptions after the teaching innovation project.
