The Need for a Content and Language Integrated Learning (CLIL) Approach in Kurdistan Education System

• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

The book examines the role of CLIL within the context of the Kurdistan Educational System. It investigates CLIL implementation in Kurdistan¿s schools and its impact on the acquisition of the English language, contents of main subjects, and the whole educational system. It first reviews the existing theoretical viewpoints on CLIL and its significance in language learning through the study of content of other subjects. A framework is then developed to describe the current situation of the Kurdistan Educational System and review CLIL in a different context. Data suggests that studying the content of some of the main subjects in Kurdistan¿s schools provides more opportunity to expand intellectual horizons of students while improving their English language skills. Therefore, integrating learning language and content from early age in schools will impact the entire education and higher education systems. This is the first study to investigate the role of CLIL in the Kurdish context and further longitudinal studies are required to improve our understanding of the implications of the wider role and advantages of implementing CLIL and how to incorporate CLIL into Kurdish education policy.
