Language Learning Motivation in Asia: Current Trajectory and Possible Future -- IndexThis book fills an existing gap in language learning motivation research by examining the applications of current motivational theories and models from WEIRD (Western, educated, industrialized, rich, developed) contexts to educational systems in Asian contexts. All chapters are focused on second language (L2) motivation as it applies to the EFL situation in Asian countries where English is a mandatory subject in school. Themes in the volume cover the use of possible L2 selves as a theoretical model of motivation, the role of teacher motivation and demotivation in non-European educational systems, study abroad, motivation among adolescents, cross-cultural differences in learner motivation among Asian cultures and the influence of native speakerism on language motivation and cultural identity. This book will appeal to ESL/EFL educators, postgraduate students, researchers and teacher-trainers both inside and outside Asian countries, who are interested in research on L2 motivation in general and within Asian contexts in particular.Second language acquisition (Clevedon, England) ;106.Language and languagesStudy and teaching learningAsiaSecond language acquisitionLearning, Psychology ofMotivation (Psychology)Language and languagesStudy and teaching learningSecond language acquisition.Learning, Psychology of.Motivation (Psychology)428.0071/05Apple Matthew T., edthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtDa Silva Dexter, edthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtFellner Terry, edthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtDE-B1597DE-B1597BOOK9910149407503321L2 Selves and Motivations in Asian Contexts2788873UNINA
