The data were collected by a questionnaire distributed to respondents who met the criteria of this study via WhatsApp, Instagram, and Twitter. Then, the data obtained were analyzed in different ways. To measure language attitudes, the data were analyzed using a five-point Likert scale. As for learning motivation, the data were analyzed by grouping respondents' answers into motivation categories.
