The Creation of a Content-Base Instruction course booklet in order to incorporate culture based on American holidays as a subject in the EFL class

Abstract

This project was carried out in order to create a Content-Based Instruction course booklet incorporating culture based on American holidays as a subject in the EFL class. It contains two stages. The first one is dedicated to the creation of the material that includes the students’ booklet and the teacher’s guide, and the second stage is dedicated to the use of the booklet with a group of students of the Abraham Lincoln Binational Center to evaluate the usefulness of the teaching material. To carry out this Project, the researcher worked with a quantitative research method due to the fact that statistical data analysis was required to interpret certain information obtained from the results. The results obtained after using the designed material show a positive outcome. The efficiency of Content-Based Instruction in the EFL class as well as the usefulness of the teaching material have been demonstrated in this Project.
