Motivation for Learning English in Bangladesh. A research book based on tertiary level education

      Аннотация: This book investigates the reasons why the tertiary level students of Bangladesh learn the English language exploring the kind of motivational orientation the Bangladeshi students have in learning English from three kinds of motivation: instrumental, integrative, and global. In addition, this book determines, through research and analysis of data, that Bangladeshi students specially those of the tertiary level do not learn English to integrate or assimilate themselves with the culture of the native speakers of English, rather they learn English for some practical purposes like getting high ranking jobs, undertaking higher studies, or achieving success in career etc. This book also discusses the current condition of English in Bangladesh by mentioning the areas where English is extensively used. Finally, it suggests some ways that may be useful for teachers in removing the obstacles that hinder the effective teaching and learning of English in the territories where English is taught as a foreign or second language.
