Actitudes, contexto, motivación, aprendizaje, españolRésumé
En el presente estudio, examinamos actitudes, expectativas y motivaciones de estudiantes de español en el nivel preparatoria en dos diferentes contextos de Estados Unidos: el suroeste de Texas y el sur de Minnesota. Con base en el papel que juega el idioma español en el ambiente sociocultural actual, las percepciones de la lengua y su cultura, así como los resultados de una encuesta, dilucidamos que los discursos nacionales y las creencias sociales profundamente arraigadas respecto del español y sus hablantes afecta, tanto esperada como inesperadamente, la motivación de los estudiantes para aprender español en el marco de escenarios educativos formales.
