| Title | Motivating learners, motivating teachers : building vision in the language classroom / Zoltán Dörnyei, Magdalena Kubanyiova. |
| Physical Description | 1 online resource (x, 184 pages) : digital, PDF file(s). |
| Notes | Title from publisher's bibliographic system (viewed on 17 Sep 2021). |
| Summary | This volume presents a new approach to motivation that focuses on the concept of 'vision'. Drawing on visualisation research in sports, psychology and education, the authors describe powerful ways by which imagining future scenarios in one's mind's eye can promote motivation to learn a foreign language. The book offers a rich selection of motivational strategies that can help students to 'see' themselves as potentially competent language users, to experience the value of knowing a foreign language in their own lives and, ultimately, to invest effort into learning it. Transformational leaders' vision for change is one of the prerequisites of turning language classrooms into motivating learning environments, and the second part of the book therefore focuses on how to ignite language teacher enthusiasm, how to re-kindle it when it may be waning and how to guard it when it is under threat. |
