The Influence of Investment, Agency, and Imagined Communities on Second Language Learner Identity: A Narrative Case Study
I request the notes and references attached to be used to complete chap 3 literature review (LR) of my dissertation. It needs to be align with chap 1 and 2 (also attached). The framework of identity (ID) and investment is informed by Norton 1995, etc who’s theories on ID, investment and ideal communities are influenced by Weedon and Bourdieu. The context is set in the capital of Saudi Arabia and looks at female Saudi medical students as they learn EFL in pursuit of higher education. The paper should be based on a poststructuralist, constructivist perspective. The LR needs to critically review related studies and identify the gap in literature and why my study is needed and relevant. Attached are multiple resources but writer is free to include additional ones as needed. Resources should only be from peer-referenced journals and books. Additional resources above the required 20 is acceptable as needed.
