Abstract

This study aims to analyze student engagement through a project-based learning model in a seventh grade EFL classroom. This research used a qualitative approach with a case study method to gain an in-depth understanding of how students engage in learning activities when using the PjBL model, where data was collected through observation, open ended questions interviews, and documentation. The research participants consisted of 34 seventh grade students in a junior high school. The results showed that the use of project-based learning model in EFL classroom can provide significant learning engagement for students in English learning process. The PjBL model encourages students to play an active role in learning by involving them in meaningful and contextualized tasks. Project-based learning has been shown to enhance students' enthusiasm, boost their self-confidence, foster creativity, and strengthen both independent and collaborative learning abilities. This study recommends the application of project-based learning in EFL contexts, especially in an effort to improve students’ ability to speak and write in English.

Abstract

This study examined how teachers and students negotiate meaning in a primary CLIL classroom and how teacher scaffolding supports learners’ understanding of both academic content and English language. Using a qualitative micro-genetic design, the research analyzed interactional sequences recorded during fifth-grade science and social studies lessons delivered through English. The findings reveal that meaning negotiation—manifested through clarification requests, confirmation checks, comprehension checks, and recasts—frequently emerges when students struggle with academic terminology. These negotiation episodes facilitate both linguistic development and conceptual understanding. The teacher’s scaffolding, including linguistic simplification, visual support, modeling, tiered questioning, and non-verbal cues, plays a critical role in mediating these processes. Micro-genetic tracking shows that students’ understanding develops gradually across successive turns, demonstrating how scaffolding becomes internalized during interaction. Overall, the study highlights the interdependent roles of negotiation and scaffolding in shaping effective CLIL learning and underscores the importance of teacher interactional competence for supporting young learners in bilingual content classrooms.
