- Intercultural learning on short‐term sojourns (2009, background): “Students may even return home with entrenched negative stereotypes of their hosts and the host culture (Allen, Dristas, and Mills 2007; Bateman 2002; Stroebe, Lenkert, and Jonas 1988), ‘a strengthened sense of national identity’ (Block 2007) and a higher dose of ethnocentricism (Isabelli-García 2006”
- Premises of multi-competence (2016, background): “…of Linguistic Multi-competence Edited by Vivian Cook and Li Wei Excerpt More information may be learning English only to have a qualification to show back home; waiters use Spanish as a lingua franca in London (Block 2007), giving it a second language function in an English-speaking country.”
- Language Learning and Study Abroad: A Critical Reading of Research (2009, background): “Thus, although Alice did reach her goal of developing speaking proficiency and to some extent, a French-mediated identity (Block 2007a), her language socialization took place largely outside the academic institution.”
- Language learning motivation, self and identity: current theoretical perspectives (2011, background): “This move to link L2 motivation with concepts of identity reflects an increasing critical concern in applied linguistics with issues of identity in language learning and use (e.g. Block, 2007; Lin, 2007).”
- Identity in Second Language Teaching and Learning (2011, background): “…to argue that poststructuralism has been (over)used to the point of saturation in studies of identities in SLE/ELT (English language teaching) (Block, 2007), contributing to a more general sense that after some twenty years or more of research in SLE, identity work has become conceptually…”
- Situating the L2 Self: Two Indonesian school learners of English (2009, background): “These have yielded important insights, but Block (2007) has argued that a concept potentially so fundamental to personal wellbeing and successful learning merits examination from a psychological point of view too.”
- Own-language use in language teaching and learning (2012, background): “As central and creative elements of multilingual discourse which create and maintain speaker IDENTITY (Norton 2000; Rampton 2005; Block 2007; De Fina 2007), code choice and code-switching have become increasingly de-stigmatised beyond the classroom and, consequently, are also starting to be seen as ”
- The motivational dimension of language teaching (2017, background): “Block (2007), Kramsch (2009), Norton & Toohey (2011) and others have stressed the potential of digital technologies for ‘trying out new and alternative identities and modes of selfpresentation . . . without posing a threat to students’ real-world identities and private selves’ (Ushioda 2011b: 207).”
- Cultivating cosmopolitan, intercultural citizenship through critical reflection and international, experiential learning (2011, background): “While these are encouraging developments, simply being present in the host culture does not ensure that the participants will seek out intercultural encounters, enhance their intercultural (communicative) competence (Bennett, 2009; Zarate, 2003), or experience identity expansion (Block, 2007; Byram,”
- The impact of online use of English on motivation to learn (2020, background): “By ignoring it, they are failing to acknowledge important elements in their learners’ evolving L2-mediated identities (Block, 2007) . The students in our study exhibited strong ideal L2 selves, and as Ushioda (2011) and others have pointed out, these motivating visions of a future English-proficient”
