CLIL for Schools
One of the latest buzzwords (or buzz-acronyms) in language education is CLIL. But what exactly are the benefits of Content and Language Integrated ºìÌÒÊÓƵing for language learning specifically, as well as for content-based learning? In this course, participants will discover how CLIL lessons can be utilised in a variety of contexts in order to improve students’ content knowledge and language use.
Description
Course participants will learn how to link curriculum topics to linguistic communication, and how language fluency can be developed in conjunction with subject knowledge. They will also look at the role that the language school can play, as well as the state education system, in developing these competencies. As well as providing a theoretical grounding, the course will offer a practical framework for CLIL lessons for a variety of student levels and ages in a number of subjects.
By the end of the course, participants will have learned about CLIL theory, the symbiosis of content and language learning, the role of the language school in providing CLIL lessons to a variety of levels and ages, adapting CLIL frameworks for different subjects, and how students’ specifically linguistic competencies can be nurtured and developed.
