Students' Self-Efficacy Towards Learning English Through Drama and CLIL

Abstract

This study aimed at exploring the impact of Content and Language Integrated Learning (CLIL) and drama on students’ self-efficacy towards learning English through drama. The sample of the study was (68) ninth graders (divided into two equal groups) from Al-Mamounia preparatory school in Gaza Strip. The two researchers used a self-efficacy scale. The findings revealed that the program based on CLIL and Drama was effective to improve the students’ self-efficacy towards learning English in general and towards learning English through drama. The researchers recommend that EFL Palestinian teachers should use the CLIL and drama approach as a tool for enhancing students’ self-efficacy.
