MOTIVATIONAL SPEECH UNITS OF HIGHER EDUCATION PROFESSOR-TEACHERS: A SOCIOLINGUISTIC AND DISCOURSE-ANALYTIC PERSPECTIVE
Keywords:
Unlike transactional instructional language that focuses primarily on delivering content or information, motivational utterances perform dual functions: they regulate students’ cognitive engagement while simultaneously shaping their emotional readiness to participate in the learning process.Abstract
