Description
This presentation explores an educational innovation designed to enhance the efficacy of Content and Language Integrated Learning (CLIL) through the strategic development and integration of digital learning resources for Grade 11 students at Duc Hop High School, Vietnam. Grounded in the theoretical foundations of CLIL (Coyle, Hood, & Marsh, 2010) and digital pedagogy (Chang & Hung, 2018), the initiative seeks to simultaneously improve learners’ subject-specific knowledge and English language proficiency in a contextually meaningful and pedagogically engaging manner. Informed by empirical research, comprehensive needs analysis, and a pilot implementation phase, the project leverages a suite of digital tools—including Quizlet, OLM, ClassDojo, Blooket, and Zalo—to cultivate a dynamic, interactive, and differentiated learning environment. These resources are meticulously aligned with the English 11 – Global Success curriculum and are tailored to accommodate diverse learner profiles and needs. Preliminary outcomes reveal notable improvements in student motivation, linguistic competence, and content mastery. Additionally, participating teachers reported increased instructional effectiveness and more active student engagement. This session will present actionable strategies, illustrative teaching materials, and a scalable implementation model that educators can readily adapt to their own CLIL-oriented instructional contexts.
