Abstract:

The concept of Directed Motivational Currents (DMCs) represents a brand new construct within the L2 motivation research. Dornyei and his associates proposed the construct and elaborated on it. It is a period of exceptionally intense and sustained motivation that differs from high levels of motivation that might take place by doing enjoyable activities. A DMC is an overriding surge motivation that undermines all other activities and temporarily alters the everyday routines of an individual learner. It consists of a clear and valuable goal/vision, and a salient facilitative structure that provides the pathway for the learner to proceed. It has a third element which is concerned with the emotionality that is connected to the resulting motivation. The current paper aims at describing this new construct and its components in details. It explicates the theoretical underpinnings of the construct and compares it with another similar concept (flow). Finally, the pedagogical implications are discussed.
