【讲座地点】：陈明金教学楼100教室

【主要内容】：

This study has investigated Chinese students’ motivations to learn English in both Chinese EFL and overseas ESL contexts.Students’ motivational possible selves (i.e., the possible selves that act as a motivational force for learning English) were also examined in detail in this study. This study has also examined the structural relations among L2 regulatory styles, identity changes, and L2 motivational possible selves.

This study has used an exploratory sequential mixed methods design employing both semi-structured interviews and factor analytic surveys. The interviews focused on changes in motivation and identity through retrospective reflection among 20 Chinese PhD students at the University of Auckland. An online questionnaire survey of 443 postgraduate and undergraduate Chinese students studying in New Zealand explored structural relations among L2 regulatory styles, identity changes and L2 motivational selves. 

The oral presentation will highlight the major findings of the thesis and its contribution to the field of language learning motivation and identity.
