1 What is the purpose of the study?
Nowadays there has been an increasing awareness of the affective domain in the second language acquisition. The relationship between language and affection is closely interwoven. The study of the affective factors is conducive to the learner’s learning and teacher’s teaching. In addition to this, the research of the affective factors will help us to find solutions to perplexing language problems.
2 What do you hope to find out?
Through analyzing the affective domain, I hope to find out how the affective factors influence the second language acquisition and teachers use these factors to facilitate the learner. In further, it can offer approaches that Chinese teachers use the affective factors to improve students in English learning.
