Pragmatic Competences of German Students in English Content and Language Integrated Learning (CLIL) and Other English as a Foreign Language (EFL) Classrooms. An Explorative Study

  • This paper tries to answer the question whether the promising Content and Language Integrated Learning (CLIL) teaching method also has positive effects on the pragmatic competences of CLIL students compared to their peers in mainstream English as a Foreign Language (EFL) classrooms. To avoid deviances caused by other factors external to the teaching method, only students who have a similar language background were selected for the study by means of a questionnaire. Data on the articulations of requests, thanks, complaints, apologies, invitations, refusals and advice was collected during videotaped English role plays and role enactments. After the role plays/role enactments, students were interviewed about their performance and were given German Discourse Completion Tests (DCTs) to allow a comparison between respective articulations in their L1 and L2. Furthermore, teachers were questioned about the speech acts they used in CLIL and EFL classes and their judgements about the students’ possible activities.
