摘要:"Since the advent of a 'Languages for All' policy and later the National Curriculum requirement for all pupils to take a foreign language up to the end of Key Stage 4, the problem of motivating reluctant learners has retained a place close to the top of the modern language teacher's agenda. This book, informed by research on motivational and attitudinal perspectives of secondary pupils (11-18) learning foreign languages in the UK and Germany, provides the support teachers crave. The author reports on pupils' perceptions of the language learning experience and analyses its implications for teachers. Informed by data gathered from classroom, home and visits abroad, he provides some practical strategies to enhance the enjoyment of the in-class experience and the status of modern languages on the secondary school curriculum."--Jacket.
