Developing an Effective Class Observation Schedule for Content and Language Integrated Learning (CLIL)

Abstract

This study investigates the robustness of Class observation Schedule for Content and Language Integrated Learning (CLIL) strategies in English language classrooms among CBSE-affiliated government and private/public schools in the National Capital Region (NCR) of India. A structured Class Observation Schedule was developed and validated to systematically assess the effectiveness of teaching practices in enhancing students' Listening, Speaking, Reading, and Writing (LSRW) skills. Data were collected from a sample of 383 Class VIII students using a five-point Likert scale. Reliability and validity of the instrument were rigorously tested through internal consistency measures, composite reliability, and construct validity assessments.
