This study examined attitudes and motivation of second language learners in Kuwait. A self-report questionnaire was adapted from Gardner's (1985) Attitude and Motivation Test Battery and translated into Arabic, the participants' first language. Several methods were used in dealing with the data collected: descriptive statistics, correlation, and t-test. Scores on each measure were used as separate variables to examine the relationship between any two variables (nine hypotheses). The findings were consistent with those of the other researchers': there are significant correlations between affective variables (attitudes and motivation) and learning a second language. Also, a significant level of English class anxiety was revealed upon which future investigations were recommended. Pedagogical implications were proposed in an effort to enhance the learners' interest in learning a second language in Kuwait.

Educational Reciprocity and Adaptability challenges the common belief that adapting to new educational settings is the responsibility of international students alone. The book argues that reciprocal responses are required by students and stakeholders alike for an efficient and equitable accommodation of international students in educational settings. Considering how international students negotiate academic challenges and social tensions, it presents both theoretical frameworks and practical tools to work around the tension regarding ethical academic practices. Crucially exploring these issues across a range of geographical and institutional contexts, and therefore offering critical insights into significant developments in international education across the world, the much-needed research in this edited collection explores: institutional educational policies regarding international students and stakeholders; institutional practices and how they are received; educational adaptability and responses from different stakeholders; the experiences of international students and institutions in negotiating academic and social tensions. This important contribution to research on the experiences of international students in different geographical and educational contexts is of great interest to academics, researchers and postgraduate students in the fields of international education, comparative education, sociology of education, youth studies, intercultural studies, migration studies and TESOL.

This field research looks into the English language discourse communities found in professional contexts in Sudan to evaluate their need for the English language in the workplace. It is also important to know about the attitude of these graduates towards the use of the English language along with Arabic in the workplace, and their attitude towards the target language in general, its native speakers, and culture. The assumption being made here is that there is still doubt as to the importance and necessity of using English in the professional field in Sudan. And Sudanese graduate employees are unable to cope with the use of English in the workplace due to poor preparatory measures which may include curriculum, teaching, pedagogics, the proper understanding of learners’ needs, and proper understanding of professional discourse communities and their specific needs for the English language.
