Motivation in learning Mandarin as a foreign language amongst secondary students in international schools
description <p>The objective of this research is to investigate motivation in learning Mandarin as a foreign</p><p>language among secondary student in international school. Both quantitative and qualitative</p><p>method have been employed in this study. Survey questionnaire and interview have been used</p><p>as the research instruments to collect data. The sample of the study collected were the 212</p><p>secondary students from year seven to eleven who are currently learning Mandarin as a foreign</p><p>language in international school for quantitative study whereas 15 secondary students were</p><p>selected among the 212 secondary students for qualitative study. Quantitative findings reveal</p><p>that Ideal L2 self is the key motivator for the secondary students to put in effort in learning</p><p>Mandarin with a high correlation coefficient(r) of .776, p< 0.001. The study also proved that</p><p>there is a significant difference between male and female students in term of the score on</p><p>motivational factors and the correlation coefficient between variables. Qualitative findings</p><p>report that secondary students who have accumulated more cultural capitals based on Bourdieus</p><p>(1986) concept of capitals and having experiencing a smooth process during their situated</p><p>learning based on Wengers (1998) community of practice during their early learning experience</p><p>are more able to develop their Ideal L2 self. However, economic and social capital have been an</p><p>exception in this situation. This might be due to the fact that secondary students are not</p><p>financially independent and they have less real life experience. In conclusion, results concluded</p><p>that the development of Ideal L2 self and current motivation level of a secondary student are</p><p>interrelated and teachers teaching method is a significant factor in the students motivation. As</p><p>an implication, this research has provided valuable insight to the education field and</p><p>recommendation given can help teachers to enhance their lesson plan that is best suited for their</p><p>students.</p>
