商品簡介
Emerging research suggests that self-concept plays an important role in second language (L2) learning. This volume brings together researchers from a variety of backgrounds to explore theories and practical applications of self-concept and L2 learning. Studies come from around the world, including Central Europe, Asia and Australia, and rely on different research methods, age groups and settings to fully elucidate the role of self-concept on success in learning a second language. Articles are presented in four sections: theories of self-concept; the relationship between self-concept and language learning; understanding student’s self-concept from a teacher’s perspective; and intervention studies.
