Impact of Content and Language Integrated Learning on Students' Speaking Proficiency at Primary Level in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa

Abstract

    There are different teaching-learning methodologies being used by practitioners. Content and Learning Integrated Learning (CLIL) is one of the emerging language teaching methods. This method is a dual-learning approach which focuses on language learning and content knowledge at the same time. The present research study is about CLIL's impact on the students' speaking proficiency at the primary level in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa. The researchers selected grade fifth students for the research. The respondents of the study were 24 in number, divided into two groups, i.e., experimental and control groups. The pre-speaking test was administered to both groups before the intervention. After the pre- speaking test, the experimental group was intervened with the CLIL method. The data analyzed through SPSS showed a significant difference between the scores of post-tests of the control and experimental group. Similarly, very little difference was found in the results of the pre-test and post-test of the control group which showed that CLIL had a positive impact on speaking proficiency at the primary level in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa. The present study recommended that CLIL should be implemented at a large scale for learning the English language.
