Content Based Instruction

Dr. Muna Alkhateeb

Content based instruction (CBI) is a teaching approach that focuses on learninglanguagethrough learningaboutsomething.AlthoughCBI is not new, there has been an increased interest in it becauseit has proven very effective in ESL and EFLprograms around the world.Content-Based Instruction (CBI) is “an approach to second language teaching in which teaching is organized around the content or information that students will acquire, rather than around a linguistic or other type of syllabus” (Richards & Rodgers, 2001, p.204). In other words, CBI involves integrating the learning of language with the learning of content simultaneously; here, content typically means academic subject matter such as math, science, or social studies.

Content-Based Instruction

Nik Peachey, teacher, trainer and materials writer, The British Council

In recent years content-based instruction has become increasingly popular as a means of developing linguistic ability.

It has strong connections to project work, task-based learning and a holistic approach to language instruction and has become particularly popular within the state school secondary (11 - 16 years old) education sector.

What is content-based instruction?
The focus of a CBI lesson is on the topic or subject matter. During the lesson students are focused on learning about something. This could be anything that interests them from a serious science subject to their favourite pop star or even a topical news story or film. They learn about this subject using the language they are trying to learn, rather than their native language, as a tool for developing knowledge and so they develop their linguistic ability in the target language. This is thought to be a more natural way of developing language ability and one that corresponds more to the way we originally learn our first language.
