Synchronous (Onsite) Integration of the 5E Model of Instruction in Bilingual Earth Science Class in a Senior High School in Taiwan more
Sun, Apr 30, 13:00-16:00 Asia/Seoul
This study aims to investigate how the content teachers apply 5E Model into bilingual classes and how students perceive this course design. Recently, the Taiwanese government launched the ‘Blueprint for Developing Taiwan into a Bilingual Nation by 2030’. In response to this policy, many teachers in Taiwan have implemented various bilingual teaching methods to help students comprehend and acquire both content and language knowledge. Some designed their courses using the 5E Model to give students clear guidelines. Little is known about the effect of the 5E Model in bilingual classes and if it works well in a Taiwanese context. This study aims to address this gap through questionnaires and interviews with both students and teachers in a bilingual earth science course in a senior high school in Taiwan. There are practical findings for bilingual teachers to develop comprehensive bilingual courses integrating the 5E Model.
