Abstract	The present study attempts to explore the students’ perspectives on using social networking tools to teach writing skills at the undergraduate level. Writing in an academic setting usually becomes unpleasant for the students as the content is limited and often monotonous. Hence, there is a need to rethink the pedagogy involved in teaching writing skills and offer students realistic settings to practice writing in authentic situations. This can be done by using social networking platforms as a supplementary tool in the writing classroom as students find it interesting and spend most of their time on these platforms. In this study, the researcher has conducted an online survey on 350 undergraduate students from Haryana, Punjab, Chandigarh and Himachal Pradesh, to enquire about their views on incorporating social media in the traditional writing classroom.
