How To Write CLIL Materials

Languages : en
Pages : 102

Book Description
CLIL (Content and Language Integrated Learning) materials are typically used in bilingual and international schools where school subjects are taught in the target language. This is an area of ELT that is difficult to publish global materials for and throws up a different set of challenges for the ELT writer. Is the syllabus driven by the language or the subject? How can you support the linguistic demands without watering down the subject content? How can assessment avoid penalising students who are good at the subject, but weaker at English? Once you can answer these questions, you'll be able to develop materials that, according to recent research, help learners not only outperform their non-CLIL peers in English, but also in science, maths and even in their mother tongue.This book provides: - dozens of illustrative examples from published CLIL materials.- guidance on liaising with other departments.- reflective tasks and suggested answers.- a checklist to evaluate the CLIL materials that you'll create.This book forms part of the ELT Teacher 2 Writer training course. The course is designed to help you write better ELT materials, either for publication, or simply to improve the quality of your self-produced classroom materials

CLIL

Author: Do Coyle
Publisher: Cambridge University Press
ISBN: 9780521112987
Category : Foreign Language Study
Languages : en
Pages : 184

Book Description
CLIL (Content and Language Integrated Learning) has emerged since the millennium as a major trend in education. Written by Do Coyle, Philip Hood and David Marsh and drawing on their experience of CLIL in secondary schools, primary schools and English language schools across Europe, this book gives a comprehensive overview of CLIL. It summarises the theory which underpins the teaching of a content subject through another language and discusses its practical application, outlining the key directions for the development of research and practice. This book acknowledges the uncertainty many teachers feel about CLIL, because of the requirement for both language and subject knowledge, while providing theoretical and practical routes towards successful practice for all.

Focus on CLIL

Author: Kasia Papaja
Publisher: Cambridge Scholars Publishing
ISBN: 1443860859
Category : Education
Languages : en
Pages : 240

Book Description
Content and Language Integrated Learning (CLIL) refers to an educational context where a foreign language (in this case English) is used as a medium of instruction in content subjects. This book presents and analyses the changes which take place in a CLIL classroom in secondary education. This book will also serve to raise CLIL teachers’ awareness of certain changes which occur in the CLIL classroom, and will consequently help them understand the process of Content and Language Integrated Learning. The book is organised into two parts: theoretical and empirical. These parts consist of six chapters each. The first three chapters review the professional literature relevant to this study, while the other three chapters are devoted to the empirical study.

Assessment and Learning in Content and Language Integrated Learning (CLIL) Classrooms

Author: Mark deBoer
Publisher: Springer Nature
ISBN: 3030541282
Category : Education
Languages : en
Pages : 284

Book Description
This volume builds a conceptual basis for assessment promoting learning in Content and Language Integrated Learning (CLIL) classrooms and proposes practical assessment approaches and activities that CLIL teachers can apply in the classroom. CLIL as an educational context is unique, as language and content learning happen simultaneously. The efficacy of such instruction has been studied extensively, but assessment in CLIL classrooms has drawn much less attention. The present volume aims to fill this gap. Arranged based on different ways that content and language are integrated in CLIL, the chapters in this book together build a solid theoretical basis for assessment promoting learning in CLIL classrooms. The authors discuss how assessment eliciting this integration yields insights into learners' abilities, but more importantly, how these insights are used to promote learning. The contributors to the volume together build the understanding of classroom-based assessment as cyclic, of teaching, learning, and assessment as inter-related, and of content and language in CLIL classrooms as a dialectical unity. This volume will spark interest in and discussion of classroom-based assessment in CLIL among CLIL educators and researchers, enable reflection of classroom assessment practices, and foster collaboration between CLIL teachers and researchers. The assessment approaches and activities discussed in the volume, in turn, will help educators understand the scope of applications of assessment and inspire them to adapt these to their own classrooms.
