The Socioemotional Aspect of Classroom Climate in Songbased EFL Classes

Popis výsledku v původním jazyce

Based on current neuro-pedagogy, we need a safe and positive environment to be able to learn. Since music is a tool that can create a positive and motivational atmosphere for learning, we believe there is great potential for learning in classes where music is employed as the main teaching aid. For this reason, we apply song-based instruction as part of the development of our students’ communicative competence in English. Within the university course called Development of communicative competence in English through popular music, we conducted a survey the participants of which were students of a bachelor study program English Language, where different kinds of in-class songbased activities were aimed at developing all language components as well as all four language skills. The objective of the research was to detect the students’ perception of classroom climate (n = 49). The research question was formulated as follows: How did the students perceive the socioemotional dimension of classroom climate during the song-based course? To answer this research question, the survey approach was applied as the research strategy and a questionnaire was used as a methodology tool. The key findings indicate that the students perceived the atmosphere in the classes to be positive, friendly, comfortable and relaxed, mainly due to the interactions with their peers, teachers’ approach and singing. In conclusion, this particular song-based course carries aspects of a positive socioemotional dimension of classroom climate.
