Produktbeschreibung
This research examines Swedish students' attitudes and motivation towards English education in two upper secondary schools, using Dörnyei's (2005) L2 motivational self system. Of interest is whether theoretical and vocational students have motivational differences when it comes to learning English as a second language.
