Title | Book: Identity, Motivation and Autonomy in Language Learning |
Body | From http://www.multilingual-matters.com/display.asp?isb=9781847693723 Identity, Motivation and Autonomy in Language Learning By Terry Lamb, Garold Murray, and Xuesong Gao Published by Multilingual Matters Review: There is no doubt that identity, motivation and autonomy are closely related concepts, yet this link has typically been underrepresented in the literature. This collection of papers offers to redress this by examining how the language learner’s agency, will and self interact in a wide range of cultures and contexts, and how they jointly shape learner behaviours and classroom practices. A particular strength of the anthology is that it offers a good balance of discussions of the latest theoretical approaches (such as complex dynamic systems theory and sociocultural approaches) and data-based investigations in which we can hear the voices of real learners in real classrooms.
