The Language Learner's Paradox of Choice

The language learning landscape has been changing. For many of us there is now an immense amount of choice and so many options to choose from when it comes to resources and information – but is this as good a thing as it seems? Psychologist, Barry Schwartz, would caution us to be wary of a powerful paradox that lies within all the newfound choice in the developed world, and I'd like to discuss how this awareness can help us all become happier and more fulfilled language learners :)
