SCIENTIFIC ARTICLE: EFFECTIVENESS OF CLIL IN TEACHING GEOGRAPHY THROUGH ENGLISH

This study investigates the effectiveness of the Content and Language Integrated Learning (CLIL) approach in teaching geography through English within general education schools. The paper provides an expanded overview of CLIL’s pedagogical foundations, its relevance in contemporary education, and its contribution to bilingual academic development. Additionally, the research elaborates on methodological tools used to assess CLIL outcomes, including cognitive, linguistic, motivational, and performance-based indicators. Findings demonstrate that CLIL enables learners to deepen subject understanding while simultaneously enhancing academic English proficiency. The study concludes with pedagogical implications and recommendations for improving English‑medium geography instruction through evidence‑based CLIL practices.
