Motivation in Physical Education and Foreign Language Learning in CLIL Teaching: Gender Differences and Implications for Future Studies

Abstract

The goal of this paper is to show the differences between girls and boys in how FLL (Foreign Language Learning), and PE (Physical Education) is perceived in CLIL (Content and Language Integrated Learning) contexts. In this study, based on a t-student analysis, significant differences by sex were found in Intrinsic Motivation-Knowledge and Accomplishment for FLL, Amotivation for PE, and Satisfaction/Boredom for PE and FLL. This would justify a future line of work, also developed in this article, as well as its future contributions.
