| dc.description.abstract | Developing academic vocabulary remains a challenge for most university students learning English as a second or foreign language, particularly in regions where traditional methodologies emphasize the isolated teaching of grammar and vocabulary. In response to this issue, the study investigated the potential of the Content and Language Integrated Learning (CLIL) approach to support the acquisition of academic vocabulary among university students. The research was conducted with 31fourth-cycle students enrolled in the Pedagogy of National and Foreign Languages at the Technical University of Cotopaxi. It adopted a quantitative research design, supported by qualitative data, within an exploratory, diagnostic, and descriptive framework. Instruments for data collection included an academic vocabulary pre-test and post-test, writing and speaking rubrics, and a revised observation guide for systematic classroom observation during a CLIL- based instructional unit. Quantitative findings showed statistically significant improvements in students’ academic vocabulary knowledge, as validated by higher post-test scores and reduced score variation, as well as progression from CEFR elementary levels (A1 and A2) toward two upper intermediate levels (B1 and B2). | |
