Benefits of Task-Based Instruction (TBI) in Multilingual and Multicultural Classrooms

Abstract

Task-Based Instruction (TBI) has been recognized for its effectiveness in language teaching, but its benefits in multilingual and multicultural classrooms deserve closer examination. This article explores how TBI can enhance language proficiency, foster intercultural competence, and improve student engagement in diverse educational settings. Through a review of recent studies and theoretical frameworks, this paper demonstrates that TBI promotes meaningful communication, accommodates varied linguistic backgrounds, and leverages cultural diversity as a learning resource. The findings suggest that TBI not only supports language development but also cultivates a more inclusive and collaborative learning environment.
