The purpose of this study is to find out the relation between understanding and perception of Content-Based Instruction (CBI) in an integrated English language and Physical Education course. For this study, 129 students taking a preschool Physical Education course completed a questionnaire. Before the questionnaire, 34 students in an experimental group learned about the English and Physical education integrated course, while others in a control group did not. The results of the questionnaire between the two groups were compared and analyzed statistically. The results of this study show that the experimental group’s perception including ‘degree of necessity,’ ‘possibility of application is significantly more positive than that of control group. Such a result means that leaning and understanding of Content-Based Instruction properly has a positive effect on improving the perception of Content-Based Instruction in that it removes the vague fear of teaching in English. Hence, to expand Content-Based Instruction, providing information and materials about Content-Based Instruction to non English major participants will be needed.
