About this listen

In episode 2 of our Motivation and Social Learning series, Fiona Mauchline, Nick Thorner and Ed Dudley unpack the concept of social learning and its critical role in language acquisition. They compare solitary learning experiences with group-based classroom dynamics, highlighting how peer interaction, relevance, and belonging can dramatically affect learner outcomes. The discussion also touches on the teacher’s role in building rapport, the importance of group motivation, and how online learning environments can both support and hinder social connection.
