Language Learning Motivation in Asia
The document discusses language learning motivation in Asia, highlighting various theories and models such as self-determination theory and complex dynamic systems. It emphasizes the need for culturally relevant approaches and critiques existing models for their applicability across different social contexts. The authors advocate for a deeper understanding of motivation that considers the unique socio-cultural dynamics of different Asian countries.
