چکیده

Recent development in language teaching methodology have led to a renewed interest about the pedagogical utility of framework in English For Academic purposes(EAP). The feedback provided by related program evaluations have heightened the need for language and content teachers’ cooperation and collaboration in EAP/ESP situations . Accordingly the main objective of the present study is to investigate the efficacy of the adjunct model in improving the overall reading comprehension skills of Iranian architecture students in an EAP class. To this end, from population of students studying architecture at Isfahan university of Art three intact classes, each with 35 sophomore students were selected . In this university like most universities in Iran , EAP is an in- study program. While the first class was taught by language teacher, the second class received instruction from a content teacher. The third class however, was taught by applying the adjunct model involving both content and language teachers. At the end of the semester a reading comprehension test was administrated to all students. The analysis of the data revealed that the students in adjunct class had outperformed the students in the other two classes on the reading comprehension test.
