  2. Gardner and various colleagues proposed the socio-educational model of language learning which presents two kinds of motivation: integrative and instrumental.
  3. Integrative motivated students are more successful language learners than the others.

  5. Dec and Ryan’s (1985) model distinguishes between intrinsic and extrinsic motivation.
  6. Within the area of expectancy, two key theories stand out: wiener’s (1986) attribution theory, and Bandar’s (1997) self-efficacy theory.
  7. According to Eccles (1984) and Wig field (1994) motivation is based on how much students expect to succeed at a task; and how much they value that success.

  22. Requiring them to operate in (two) different ways.
  23. It has been argued that frequent resource to L1 would (lead to) slower L2 learning However, stopping the flow of L1 (information) and thoughts is not possible,
  24. It is argued that focus on form and (consciousness-raising) could lead to cognitive development and better L2 performance.
  25. It has been observed that the (learners) have a very strong association with their native culture even after spending decades in another country.
  26. Ignoring this cultural bond can only add problems for (L2 learners.)
  27. (Bilingual medium) oriented strategies must be not only allowed.

  39. Teachers also need to identify with the struggle and strengths of their learners for (meaningful) relationships and enhanced L2 learning outcomes.
  40. Some students learn (a new language) more quickly and easily than others.
  41. The factors (influencing) their success are categorized as internal and external.
  42. It is their complex (interplay) that determines their learning speed and facility.
  43. The internal factors include age, personality, motivation (intrinsic), experiences, cognition, and L2’s similarity to their native language.
  44. Use learning style research with personality and cognitive styles to (determine ability) predict
  45. The terms learning style, cognitive style, personality type, sensory preference and (modality) etc.
  46. In recent years, the influence of personality variables on learning styles has (increased) greatly.

  53. Learning styles and strategies are often interrelated. Styles are made manifest by strategies; strategy is neither good nor bad. It is essentially neutral.
  54. A strategy is useful under these three conditions: i. It relates well to the (L2) task at hand. ii. The students employ the strategy effectively and link it with other (relevant) strategies. iii. Learning style preference to (one degree) or another.
  55. In language-learning field, definitions of strategies (imply) conscious movement toward a language goal.
