WHAT IS THEME
-BASED INSTRUCTION
Theme-Based teaching is one of the approaches with the
broader model of content-based instruction (CBI) in which
the emphasis is on exposing students to a “highly
contextualized” second language environment by using the
subject matter as the content of language learning.
•Loughran (2005) similarly reiterates that the idea of
teaching with themes as a means of integrating
curriculum can be traced back to the reforms of
1930’s (Lipson et al. 1993).
The Methods
•initiation of the theme
•the teacher’s role
•group exploration
•Integrating the theme with curriculum and
learning centers
•Building and maintaining spirit and enthusiasm
Experiential Learning
Experiential learning is a broad category for
teaching methods and activities that involve
the learner in the learning process. Students are
given the opportunity to learn by experience.

is equivalent to personal change and growth”.
He also feels that all human beings have a
natural propensity to learn; the role of the
teacher is to facilitate such learning.
