The global importance ascribed to English might lead us to assume
that the need to learn English is unquestionable and that therefore
student motivation is not a problem. In reality, however, local
classroom experiences and practices suggest that issues of student
(and teacher) motivation are high on the agenda despite or rather
because of the significant status English has in educational policy
and curricula, high stakes gatekeeping exams and the professional
job market. This book brings together motivation-related practical
concerns and debates from diverse international contexts and
educational settings, and from the perspective of writers who are
practitioners as well as researchers. The collection shows how
these locally produced insights and issues can have wider global
significance, resonating with the experiences and concerns of
English teachers and learners across the world. Each chapter
concludes with selected 'engagement priorities' offering pointers
for discussion and exploration for teachers and teacher educators.
