ABSTRACT

The primary aim of this research is to introduce the concept of Sustainable Education by incorporating Content and Language Integrated Learning (CLIL). Sustainable education, in this context, pertains to the process of fulfilling students’ educational requirements by facilitating the development of diverse thinking skills, including divergent, convergent, and metacognitive capabilities, to effectively address the intricate global challenges that confront us. To establish a vibrant community of learners engaged in language practice within specific subjects, CLIL must be augmented through the integration of technology, particularly Virtual Reality (VR). This innovative approach seeks to establish a close connection between symbolic and experiential information. Additionally, the incorporation of Question-Based Learning (QBL) into the educational framework aims to enable learners to deepen their comprehension of fundamental content. In synergy, these methods contribute to the cultivation of critical skills and a holistic educational experience that aligns with the principles of Sustainable Education.
