Abstract:

This book synthesises current theory and research on L2 motivation in the EFL
Japanese context carried out by internationally recognized researchers and
upcoming researcher-educators working in various educational contexts in
Japan. Topics covered include the issues of cultural identity, demotivation,
language communities, positive psychology, possible L2 selves and
internationalisation within a key EFL context. The studies in the book utilise
a wide variety of research methodologies aiming to narrow the gap between
theory and practice and examine L2 motivation in primary, secondary and
tertiary education. This volume will be of interest to research/teacher
professionals who are currently engaged in active ESL/EFL practice, EFL
educators, researchers, and teacher-trainers both inside and outside Japan,
who are interested in research on L2 motivation in general and within the
Japanese context in particular, as well as graduate and postgraduate
researchers.
