Description
This collection brings together diverse approaches to understanding language learner agency in a single volume. Organised into three main sections, it provides an introduction to theoretical perspectives, analyses of agency in empirical studies, and pedagogical implications based on data-driven research.
Researchers from various languages and with both child and adult learners are represented, making this a valuable resource for those studying language learning and teaching, sociolinguistics, and language identity. This book serves as a key reference for scholars seeking to understand agency in second language learning.
