An online survey posted on a campus BBS was conducted to collect research data with a total of 121 usable responses. The results support the motivational model and show that the explained variance of online learning system use behavior is 71.3% higher than that of the original TAM explanation.展开更多

It is agreed that success or failure in L2 learning mainly relies on the extent to which a learner is motivated. Numerous researches and experiments in L2 learning have proved that motivation is vital to successful learning. Up to the present, we are still in great need of a deep and further understanding as to what motivation is and how important it really is.展开更多
