LARA HERRERA, Romero. Mexican Secondary School Students' Perception of Learning the History of Mexico in English. profile [online]. 2015, vol.17, n.1, pp.105-120. ISSN 1657-0790. https://doi.org/10.15446/profile.v17n1.44739.
This article focuses on Mexican students' perceptions of learning the history of Mexico in English through content-based instruction, which is one of many types of bilingual pedagogical approaches that are now considered established approaches in Mexico and around the globe. A phenomenological approach was chosen in order to understand and examine participants' lived experiences through semi-structured interviews; this in turn led to the discovery of their acceptance or rejection towards learning the history of Mexico in English. The data suggest that despite students' initial rejection to learning a sensitive subject as is the history of Mexico in English, most students found the content-based method as being meaningful, thus, they had a sense of pride in the end.
