The data informing this investigation is comprised of student reflective writing, completed as homework as part of their normal coursework, from the beginning and end of their first semester at university. The objective of this investigation is to base descriptions of students’ motivations, hopes and experiences of the course in their own words and from their perspective rather than to force their discourses into preassigned categories or claim their narratives are representative of a larger population of which they are considered a representative subset. The motivation informing this research is twofold. First, it is research in context.\nThere is a considerable amount of literature investigating the motivation of English as a foreign language (EFL) students, but that literature tends to decontextualize students, conducting surveys across institutional, social, and national contexts in order to create representations of an ideal learner to which to aspire or to discern characteristics of successful and unsuccessful learners (for a review of such literature, see Dörnyei, 2005; Irie, 2003). Such research, by its very nature, seeks the “simplification and reduction of complexity” (Blommaert & Dong, 2011, p. 11), yet the actual classroom as experienced by individual teachers and students is comprised of specific people with disparate motivations and goals acting in a social mileu where their characterizations in the research do not necessarily represent who they really are as unique personalities, a point Dörnyei (2005) acknowledges. Thus this investigation takes as a given the inherent complexity of so many different individuals interacting within the social space of the EFL classroom and seeks to explicate what their experiences of one particular course were for them. Second, much of the research into student motivation and experience of English learning tends to fit students into categories that are metaphorically static, such as national identity, current stage of schooling, age, or particular states of personality variables (Dörnyei, 2005; Irie, 2003), which represents a “territorial” (Clark, 1998, p. 11) metaphor for the learning experience. In contrast, this paper contextualizes the actors’ learning experiences as “transient” (Clark, 1998, p. 12), where classroom participants are envisioned as moving to and through the physical space of the classroom and the metaphorical space of English, English speaking, and the different cultural implications embedded in the learning of English. Thus, while these learners are Japanese, it is not their Japanese-ness that is of interest in this report, but what they see as important to them in their journey to and through the course (and beyond), based on their accounts of their hopes for and experiences of this class and what relevance they see those as having to their previous and future experiences. After all, almost all current university students are former high school students and future adult learners, thus where they happen to be at the time of data collection isn’t nearly as important as seeing them as moving through an “expansive space” (Clark, 1998, p. 12) where “in their interactions, they travel” (Clark, 1998, p. 12). In so doing, one objective is to present findings that are “accessible and meaningful for teachers” (Mitchell & Myles, 1998, p. 31) and to bring “forward into the SLA [second language acquisition] dialogue the perspectives of...learners” (Steinman, 2005, p. 69). Thus learners’ voices and issues are foregrounded in the discussion presented here.","subitem_description_type":"Abstract"}]},"item_3_description_40":{"attribute_name":"資源タイプ(DSpace)","attribute_value_mlt":[{"subitem_description":"Article","subitem_description_type":"Other"}]},"item_3_description_6":{"attribute_name":"引用","attribute_value_mlt":[{"subitem_description":"研究紀要 : 富山大学杉谷キャンパス一般教育,第40号,2012.12.25,pp.23-32","subitem_description_type":"Other"}]},"item_3_full_name_3":{"attribute_name":"著者別名","attribute_value_mlt":[{"nameIdentifiers":[{"nameIdentifier":"9948","nameIdentifierScheme":"WEKO"},{"nameIdentifier":"9000250472040","nameIdentifierScheme":"CiNii ID","nameIdentifierURI":"http://ci.nii.ac.jp/nrid/9000250472040"}],"names":[{"name":"ムラー, セロン"}]}]},"item_3_identifier_registration":{"attribute_name":"ID登録","attribute_value_mlt":[{"subitem_identifier_reg_text":"10.15099/00002963","subitem_identifier_reg_type":"JaLC"}]},"item_3_publisher_33":{"attribute_name":"出版者","attribute_value_mlt":[{"subitem_publisher":"[富山大学杉谷キャンパス一般教育]"}]},"item_3_source_id_10":{"attribute_name":"書誌レコードID","attribute_value_mlt":[{"subitem_source_identifier":"AA12190328","subitem_source_identifier_type":"NCID"}]},"item_3_source_id_8":{"attribute_name":"ISSN","attribute_value_mlt":[{"subitem_source_identifier":"1882045X","subitem_source_identifier_type":"ISSN"}]},"item_3_subject_22":{"attribute_name":"国立国会図書館分類","attribute_value_mlt":[{"subitem_subject":"ZV1","subitem_subject_scheme":"NDLC"}]},"item_3_version_type_16":{"attribute_name":"著者版フラグ","attribute_value_mlt":[{"subitem_version_resource":"http://purl.org/coar/version/c_970fb48d4fbd8a85","subitem_version_type":"VoR"}]},"item_creator":{"attribute_name":"著者","attribute_type":"creator","attribute_value_mlt":[{"creatorNames":[{"creatorName":"Muller, Theron"}],"nameIdentifiers":[{},{}]}]},"item_files":{"attribute_name":"ファイル情報","attribute_type":"file","attribute_value_mlt":[{"accessrole":"open_date","date":[{"dateType":"Available","dateValue":"2016-02-15"}],"displaytype":"detail","filename":"TMPU_JLAS_40_01-02_Page023-032.pdf","filesize":[{"value":"674.3 kB"}],"format":"application/pdf","licensetype":"license_note","mimetype":"application/pdf","url":{"label":"TMPU_JLAS_40_01-02_Page023-032.pdf","url":"https://toyama.repo.nii.ac.jp/record/2969/files/TMPU_JLAS_40_01-02_Page023-032.pdf"},"version_id":"1b849250-f2fb-4218-9d02-38aec6a0e06f"}]},"item_keyword":{"attribute_name":"キーワード","attribute_value_mlt":[{"subitem_subject":"Learner voice","subitem_subject_scheme":"Other"},{"subitem_subject":"ESP nursing","subitem_subject_scheme":"Other"},{"subitem_subject":"narrative exploration","subitem_subject_scheme":"Other"},{"subitem_subject":"EFL","subitem_subject_scheme":"Other"}]},"item_language":{"attribute_name":"言語","attribute_value_mlt":[{"subitem_language":"eng"}]},"item_resource_type":{"attribute_name":"資源タイプ","attribute_value_mlt":[{"resourcetype":"departmental bulletin paper","resourceuri":"http://purl.org/coar/resource_type/c_6501"}]},"item_title":"Learner voice and agency in ESP nursing : A narrative exploration","item_titles":{"attribute_name":"タイトル","attribute_value_mlt":[{"subitem_title":"Learner voice and agency in ESP nursing : A narrative exploration"}]},"item_type_id":"3","owner":"3","path":["494"],"pubdate":{"attribute_name":"公開日","attribute_value":"2013-05-08"},"publish_date":"2013-05-08","publish_status":"0","recid":"2969","relation_version_is_last":true,"title":["Learner voice and agency in ESP nursing : A narrative exploration"],"weko_creator_id":"3","weko_shared_id":3},"updated":"2023-07-25T11:47:00.232273+00:00"}
