Abstract:
Thanks to sophisticated mobile and web technologies, the wide availability of
video chat software, and applications with natural language and speech
processing capabilities, language learners have more, and more varied,
opportunities to learn. Computer-based learning contexts such as these offer
compelling new features, yet the impact of these features is not always well
understood. This thesis draws on recent developments in L2 motivation theory
to advance our understanding of learners' affective experiences in
computer-based spoken L2 grammar practice, and to explore learners'
motivations for learning Dutch as an L2. The platform employed is innovative
for its use of Automatic Speech Recognition technology to provide oral grammar
practice with automatic corrective feedback on word order errors. Learners
tend to prefer having their errors corrected, but feedback can result in
negative emotional reactions which may undermine learning. We investigated
this issue by comparing learners' affective experiences in grammar practice
with and without feedback, using a design which periodically paused practice
to survey learners' affective states, while a logging module collected
performance data. Learners' motivations for learning Dutch are explored using
a new instrument based on the L2 Motivational Self System, as a first step
towards creating computer applications that adapt to the future hopes and
concerns of individual learners. Together, the findings suggest that
self-study practice is a context where feedback can be provided safely, that
affective experiences are linked to learning, and that individuals have
diverse motivations for learning an L2 which could be taken into account in
pedagogical design.
