This study presents a survey research design on college students' perception on the use of social network tools for education in USA. The survey research design is a very valuable tool for assessing opinions and trends and it includes both graduate and undergraduate students, as well as male and female respondents. The data collection was via University of Northern Colorado (UNC) website (list-serves and Facebook groups). Composite 2 of the survey was eliminated because the responses orders of the items were different from composite 1 as the responses in composite 1 went from strongly disagree to strongly agree while in composite 2 the responses went the other direction and we were afraid the participants did not pay attention to that.

They were class II-1 consisting of 23 students, class II-2 consisted of 32 students, and class II-3 consisted of 20 students. The total population of this study was 74 students. In this case, researchers took one class as a sample that was class II-1 consisting of 23 students. The research sampling technique used cluster random sampling classes. The research instrument used in the collection of research data was a multiple choice test to measure student vocabulary learning outcomes consisting of 25 items with various variants of questions and questionnaires with an alternative scale of answer choices to measure student vocabulary interest. The results found that the answers: strongly agree given a score of 5, agree given a score of 4, a score given doubtful 3, disagree score given 2, and strongly disagree given a score in this case the questionnaire research as the main data using the description method involving description and data interpretation. Researchers use questionnaires to determine student motivation in reading. Results of the analysis of the data description of the scores of the mean pre-test and Post-test deviation of students were obtained by dividing the number of deviation scores by the number of students seen 194/23 = 8,435. In this study, the sample of data was 23 students, so the level of freedom (df) used was 23-1 = 22. After calculating the data interpretation it was found that t-test = 9,467 ≥ t-table = 1,717. From the above results, the researcher concludes that the word category technique has a significant effect on students' reading comprehension.
