In this episode, we dive into Content-Based Instruction (CBI), a dynamic approach that intertwines language learning with subject matter, such as science and history. Discover the advantages of CBI, including increased exposure to the target language and authentic communication opportunities, while also examining the mixed results regarding its impact on grammatical accuracy.
We discuss key concepts like developmental readiness, which emphasizes aligning instruction with learners’ current stages of language development. We also explore essential factors influencing CBI outcomes, including learner characteristics and instructional practices.
Join us as we unpack the implications for effective teaching strategies, stressing the importance of balancing content and language objectives to create a rich, engaging, and effective language learning environment!
