Focusing on learner psychology: Motivation and willingness to communicate

Presented by Kobe JALT

Date and Time:

Saturday, 22 October 2016 - 2:00pm - 4:00pm

Speaker:

Tomoko Yashima/八島智子, Kansai Unversity

In this presentation, I will first introduce the concept of willingness to communicate (WTC) as a psychological construct used to investigate individual differences in L2 communication along with motivation, anxiety, and self-confidence. Next, I will introduce a number of recent studies that explore the situated nature of WTC as emerging in language classrooms through the interaction of various individual, social, and contextual factors. I will then discuss the characteristics of the L2 communication behaviors of Japanese learners as phenomena that are both culturally constructed and dynamically emergent. Finally. I will explore teaching interventions that can enhance learners’ WTC.

Location:

Kobe International House Room 806
