Better to be frustrated than bored: The incidence, persistence, and impact of learners' cognitive-affective states during interactions with three different computer-based learning environments

TL;DR: Findings suggest that significant effort should be put into detecting and responding to boredom and confusion, with a particular emphasis on developing pedagogical interventions to disrupt the ''vicious cycles'' which occur when a student becomes bored and remains bored for long periods of time.
Journal ArticleDOI

Materials development for language learning and teaching

TL;DR: The authors reviewed the literature on the relatively new field of materials development for language learning and teaching and identified gaps in the literature and made proposals for future progress in materials development and in the research within the field.
Journal ArticleDOI

Foreign language enjoyment and anxiety: the effect of teacher and learner variables

TL;DR: This article examined whether foreign language enjoyment and classroom anxiety are linked to a range of learner internal variables and teacher/classroom-specific variables within one specific educational context, and found that higher levels of FLE were linked to higher scores on attitudes towards the FL, the FL teacher, FL use in class, proportion of time spent on speaking, relative standing and stage of development.

TL;DR: The authors argue for an interdisciplinary approach to beliefs about language learning research, and suggest that current studies in this area do not go far enough to examine the extent to which stable factors such as individual learner differences, account for the nature of beliefs.
Journal ArticleDOI

The Flowering of Positive Psychology in Foreign Language Teaching and Acquisition Research.

TL;DR: It is argued that 2016 is the starting point of the current period, characterized by gradual recognition in applied linguistics, growing popularity of PP, and an exponential increase in publications in more mainstream journals.
