Vol. 4 No. 3 (2026): July–September 2026

Volume 4, No. 3 (July–September 2026) of Language, Technology, and Social Media brings together 33 unique authors from a total of 6 countries, namely Indonesia, Viet Nam, Oman, Spain, Thailand, and the Philippines, across 10 peer-reviewed articles. This issue advances research on EFL pedagogy and language development through corrective feedback, ZPD-based scaffolding, pre-service teacher identity, multilingual classroom mediation, digital storytelling, and learner motivation in technology-rich environments. It further examines the expanding role of artificial intelligence in language education through ChatGPT-mediated materials and assessment design, automated writing feedback, and the longitudinal development of critical AI literacy and reflective regulation in translation practice. Complementing these pedagogical perspectives, studies of anonymous job-seeker communities and scholarship discourse on Platform X illuminate participatory communication, community engagement, networked interaction, and the communicative structures of contemporary digital publics.
