8 jsp2011-2012 DEFINITION  Teaching subjects to students through a foreign language (David Marsh, 1994).  All types of provision in which a second language is used to teach certain subjects in the curriculum other than the language lessons themselves (Eurydice Report, 2006).

10 jsp2011-2012 WHY CLIL?  A tool for the promotion of foreign languages.  A tool for the promotion of minority languages.  Language acquistion is most effective: communicative approach.  Susbtantive basis for language learning: acquisition of new language structures.  Second language learning is an integral part of social and cognitive development in school settings.  It respects the specificity of language use.

11 THE 4C’s FRAMEWORK  Coyle 1999, 2006  Four principles for planning a CLIL lesson –Content –Cognition –Communication –Culture jsp2011-2012

12 THE 4C’s FRAMEWORK conditionsAims for the classroom Content: learners create their own knowledge and developing skills. Vocabulary, purpose,diagrams, tables, experiential activities, related to the child’s previous experiences Cognition: learning and thinking in terms of learner’s linguistic demands. Predicting outcomes, reaching conclusions, thinking skills, creating knowledge Communication: interaction in the learning context. Sharing, researching and comparing cultural contexts, scaffolding tasks, student talking time vs. teacher talking time Culture: intercultural awareness is fundamental to CLIL. Collaborative activities, cooperation, group tasks, respect for others jsp2011-2012

13 CLIL PYRAMID

14  Systematical, tried and tested sequence for planning CLIL units and materials.  Planning starts with content selection  Multimodal input to produce differentiated materials.  Input-scaffolding needed.  Tasks: authentic communication.  Nature of the output jsp2011-2012

15 GOOD CLIL PEDAGOGY jsp2011-2012

16 THE FUTURE  CLIL requires a rethink of the traditional concepts of the language classroom and the language teacher.  Obstacles: –Subject teachers unwilling to take on the responsibility. –Most current CLIL programs are experimental. –A good deal of conscious learning is involved → skills from the subject teacher. –Lack of CLIL teacher-training programs. –Unnatural aspects: teaching of literature. –Parents

17 jsp2011-2012 EUROPEAN CLIL ORGANISATIONS EEEEuroCLIC: The European Network for Content and Language Integrated Classrooms.

( wwww wwww wwww.... cccc cccc nnnn ---- cccc llll iiii llll.... eeee uuuu)

18 VALENCIAN PLURILINGUAL PROGRAM  PEBE  Primary 1st Decree: DOGV July 14th, 1998 (1) 1  Primary current Decree: DOCV July 21st, 2007 (2) 2  Preprimary 1st Decree: DOGV August 21st, 2008  Secondary current Decree: DOCV April 26th, 2010.(3) 3

19 VALENCIAN PLURINGUAL PROGRAMS  Experimental.  Based on PIP or PEV program.  Subjects in foreign language: maximum 2.  Valencian Government aims: 30%  Now, under revision and discussion. jsp2011-2012

20 DEBATE ON TOPIC  Would you like to start a multilingual programme in your school?  How would you do it?  What results could you expect?

21 jsp2011-2012 HOW TO DO IT?  School project accepted by School Board and Staff.  Foreign language = vehicular language.  Communicative approach.  LIL / CLIL.  Two ways: –subject teacher using English as the language of instruction (teachers with “Capacitació”) –Subject teacher without foreign language skills + English teacher (simultaneously)  Two hours for coordinating non-language teachers with language teachers.  Teachers involved in the project must prepare materials and share them with other teachers.
