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.
