Designing, Implementing and Assessing a System of Reward Certificates in an L2-Content Hybrid Undergraduate Program at a Japanese Womenʼs University Dormer, Robert ロバート, ドーマー Tokens Certificates L2 Motivation application/pdf This study examines first, the design and implementation of a certificate system, and its efficacy in promoting motivation among undergraduates enrolled in a English language and culture degree program at a Japanese womenʼs university. Following a brief overview of the main strands of L2 motivation research, it is argued that in most practical settings, current models are simply impracticable from an action research perspective. The certificate system is then outlined, followed by the design and results of a questionnaire used to understand student understanding and perceptions of the system. For comparison reasons, an abridged version of an existing battery is used to gain some preliminary insight into typical motivational profiles. Results indicate the certificate system works for discrete groups of learners, especially those of higher-level and who are more instrumentally orientated. Several minor practical suggestions about how the system is discussed and administered are also made. departmental bulletin paper 広島女学院大学人文学部 2022-02-25 VoR application/pdf 広島女学院大学人文学部紀要 3 1 14 2435-3124 https://hju.repo.nii.ac.jp/record/7/files/1dormer.pdf https://hju.repo.nii.ac.jp/records/7 eng
