Suggestion for Future Research
The findings of the study suggest areas for future research. Researchers should give particular attention to the different statement between teachers and students. Qualitative studies, in particular, may provide greater insights into why students hold certain attitudes.
Additionally, a study could be conducted to find out the reason why students find strategies related to promoting learner autonomy so motivational. It would also to be interesting to gather data from students to find out what teachers can do to enhance their motivation by using the strategies.
Based on the difference in ranking between this study and the other studies, it would also be interesting to find out why teachers from each country ranked that same conceptual domain so differently. Ethnographic methods or discourse analysis may yield important information about the role of teachers in various cultures.
Additionally, future studies should gather data from students and teachers with broader scope.
Having data from more students and more teachers would give a larger sample size resulting in a more accurate representation of student and teacher perceptions.
Finally, scholars should compare the results of different language groups. It would be interesting to know if a student learning Chinese finds different teaching practices motivational from a student learning English. If there are differences between students studying different languages, then teachers of particular language learning groups would know which teaching
practices to emphasize in their classrooms. If, on the other hand, future studies reveal no differences, then the results could support the current study and really show teachers what teaching practices they can concentrate on in order to increase student motivation.
