The object of the study was PBL, while the purpose of the study was to investigate the effects of PBL on CLIL development in learners. This qualitative research was conducted at three schools in Kazakhstan using three CLIL classes teaching biology in English. Data was collected in parallel through classroom observations and focus group interviews. The research findings revealed that PBL significantly improved classroom climate during CLIL implementation and that both teachers and students perceived PBL positively despite the shortcomings associated with a large time commitment and the difficulty of objectively assessing group performance.

It solely looks at the state of CLIL research in Kazakhstan in order to identify gaps and make recommendations for future studies. A total of 20 studies were identified and selected for further analysis. The criteria for selection were derived from earlier research and include the following categories: relevant methodology, studies within the Kazakhstani setting exclusively, publications in three languages Kazakh, Russian and English, and peer-reviewed and conference publications.

The review's findings indicate a tendency towards examining teachers' perceptions of CLIL using a qualitative approach and interviews as the primary data collection instrument. As a result of this systematic review, the paper suggests further research areas on the CLIL approach in underrepresented Kazakhstani context.Item Open Access DEVELOPING THE PRACTICE OF CLIL WHILETEACHING BIOLOGY IN TRILINGUAL EDUCATIONAL CONTEXT(СДУ хабаршысы - 2018, 2018) Z.S.
