Maja Feddermann; Jürgen Baumert; Jens Möller – International Journal of Bilingual Education and Bilingualism, 2024
The effects of Content and Language Integrated Learning (CLIL) on students' foreign language skill development have been overestimated by previous studies, as most studies needed to have considered selection and preparation effects appropriately. We used complete survey data from a 1996-2003 cohort to investigate English skill development of N =…

Peter Siemund; Eliane Lorenz; Tugba Elif Toprak-Yildiz – International Journal of Multilingualism, 2024

Kemaloglu-Er, Elif; Sahin, Muazzez Tugce – Novitas-ROYAL (Research on Youth and Language), 2022
English language teaching (ELT) at rural schools may pose challenges like insufficient resources and a lack of students' interest. Integrating real-life-based and learner-centred methods like project-based learning (PBL) into rural English classes may help improve the quality of ELT in such contexts, yet the issue still remains underexplored. This…
