Demotivation in Second Language Acquisition by Keita Kikuchi
Brand: Channel View Publications
Product Description
SLA literature tends to focus predominantly on what motivates language learners but what demotivates them has not been widely discussed. This book focusing exclusively on demotivation will help readers to understand motivational issues from a different perspective. The aims of the work are threefold to present the current developments of demotivation research in the field of SLA and bridge motivational theoryresearch and demotivation research to promote the understanding of possible causes of demotivation and to expand the focus of demotivation research through a reflection on current motivation theoryresearch and a discussion of methodological issues. The research presented in this book is situated in Japanese Englishteaching contexts and will serve as a foundation for anyone wishing to better understand the causes of demotivation in SLA and to explore the topic in their own contexts.show more
