PROJECTS

Both learner and teacher engagement are core determinants of the success of language learning. When engagement is high, so is wellbeing and, subsequently, learner success is much more likely. This project aims to fill several core gaps in the field about language learner and teacher engagement. The project focuses on the dynamic nature of language teacher engagement (TE), and learner engagement (LE) and seeks to explore to what extent there is synchronicity, and thus contagion, between the emotional, behavioural, and cognitive dimensions of engagement among learners and between learners and teachers.
