Autonomy Support Beyond the Language Learning Classroom by Jo Mynard

Through the application of self-determination theory (SDT) to research and practice, this book deepens our understanding of how autonomous language learning can be supported and understood within environments outside of the classroom. Theoretical, empirical and practice-focused chapters examine autonomy support in a range of contexts and settings, dealing with learning environments and open spaces, communities and relationships, and advising and self-access language learning. They reveal what occurs beyond the classroom, how socializing agents support autonomous motivation and wellness, and how SDT can enhance our understanding of supporting language learner autonomy. It will be of interest to language teachers, university lecturers and learning advisors who are providing support outside the classroom, as well as to graduate students and researchers who are working in the fields of applied linguistics and TESOL.
This is the most authoritative book yet applying self-determination theory to language learningChapters written by top practitioners and expert researchers provide ideas on how to motivate language students both in and out of the classroom. An incredible resource for language teachers and for educators more generally. * Richard M. Ryan, Australian Catholic University, Australia *
This volume provides rich insights into how students can be supported in their language learning beyond the classroom. It uses self-determination theory as a valuable conceptual lens to deepen our understanding of language learner autonomy, and of the relationship between the individual and the (social) environment. The book is an excellent resource for all those involved in supporting and researching language learners beyond the classroom. * Ema Ushioda, University of Warwick, UK *

This compilation of theoretical and empirical articles is a much-needed contribution, insofar as it seeks to find solutions to dealing with changing language learning scenarios.
