要旨

The present paper focuses on the contribution of CLIL and Augmented Reality (AR) while teaching Geography to the students of the 4th grade of a Primary School. Towards this goal, two different teaching interventions have been carried out to two groups of school students (46 students in total), at an Experimental Primary School in Piraeus, Greece. The first group was taught Geography in English, through the CLIL approach (teaching a foreign language through content), making use of Augmented Reality applications, while the second group was taught Geography the traditional way, without the use of Technology. Data analysis showed a significant improvement regarding the learning outcomes of the first group, while students’ positive attitude towards using digital applications was also examined.
