| description |
<p>The aim of the study was to investigate English learning motivation among ethnic</p><p>minority English learners in rural China. Based on Drnyeis L2 Motivational Self</p><p>System theory, participants English learning motivation was investigated and factors</p><p>which affect their motivation to learn English were explored. Besides, the relationship</p><p>between the participants English proficiency and learning motivation was also</p><p>investigated. The study adopted a mixed methods case study research approach. 38</p><p>students of Uyghur and Kazak ethnic groups in Ningxia University were selected as</p><p>the participants and 6 of them were recruited as cases. Research data was collected on</p><p>English proficiency test, questionnaire and interview. Quantitative data was analysed</p><p>by conducting descriptive analysis and Pearson correlation analysis, while the</p><p>qualitative data was analysed by using thematic analysis. The findings revealed that</p><p>ethnic minority English learners in rural China had a favourable disposition towards</p><p>learning English, and they intend to put effort in English learning. Besides, the</p><p>findings also indicated that there was no relationship between the participants</p><p>English learning motivation and their English proficiency. Their motivation was</p><p>affected by various factors including attitudes towards English, ideal L2 self,</p><p>instrumentality promotion and prevention, English proficiency, institution related</p><p>factors and influence of significance others. The findings of this study shed light on</p><p>both pedagogical and theoretical aspects. In terms of English teaching, the findings</p><p>provided implications for promoting English learning motivation of Chinese ethnic</p><p>minority learners. Theoretically, this study expanded the scope of using L2</p><p>Motivational Self System theory to investigate Chinese ethnic minority EFL learners</p><p>English learning motivation in the Chinese context.</p> |
