Motivating Learners, Motivating Teachers:The Role of Vision in Language Education

Pomoce metodyczne z wydawnictwa cambridge, metodyka, język angielski

Provides tools to enable teachers to improve their own motivation, and thereby
that of their students. A new approach to motivation, focusing on the concept
of 'vision'. Drawing on visualisation research in sports, psychology and education,
the authors describe powerful ways by which imagining future scenarios can promote
motivation to learn a language. The book offers a rich selection of motivational
strategies to help students 'see' themselves as competent language users, to experience
the value of knowing a foreign language and, ultimately, to invest effort into
learning it. It also explores how to re-ignite language teacher enthusiasm, how
to re-kindle it when it may be waning and how to guard it when it is under threat.
