Part of the Psychology of Language Learning and Teaching series
See all formats and editions

This book provides an in-depth exploration of psychological phenomena affecting language learning within a social learning space.

Drawing on the literature from identity in second language learning, communities of practice and learner beliefs, in conjunction with other individual difference factors, it uncovers perceptions and assumptions that language learners have of the space and how they affect their relationship with it and the people within it.

Readers will gain a greater understanding of how psychological phenomena shape a space and how a learning space can contribute to a wider learning ecology.

This book will appeal to researchers interested in language learning beyond the classroom and psychological aspects of language acquisition, as well as to practitioners and professionals who are supporting learners outside the classroom.
