Tämä kvalitatiivinen toimintatutkimus sai lähtökipinän opettajan tarpeesta kehittää englannin kielen opetustaan suuntaan, joka innostaisi oppijoita opiskelemaan ja tuottamaan vierasta kieltä rohkeasti. Tutkimuksen tarkoituksena oli selvittää, mitä muutoksia oppijoissa ilmenee, kun perinteiseen vieraan kielen opetukseen sisällytetään kahden lukuvuoden ajan oppituokioita, joissa ympäristötiedon ainesisältöjä opetetaan vieraalla kielellä. Kiinnostuksen kohteena oli tutkia, ilmeneekö oppijoilla muutoksia ainesisältöjen hallinnassa, englanninkielisen ympäristötiedon sanavaraston karttumisessa, kielitaidon kehittymisessä sekä asenteessa oppituokioita ja englannin kieltä kohtaan yleensä. Tutkimuksen tarkoituksena oli myös luoda toimivaa käytäntöä opettajalle toteuttaa ainesisältöjen opettamista vieraalla kielellä, josta kansainvälisesti käytetään termiä Content and language integrated learning (CLIL). Tutkimus oli kahden vuoden pitkittäistutkimus, joka toteutettiin lukuvuosina 2008–2010. Tutkimusjoukko koostui 18:sta (11 poikaa ja 7 tyttöä) neljättä luokkaa aloittavasta oppijasta. Vertailuryhmään kuului 22 musiikkiluokan oppijaa (6 poikaa ja 16 tyttöä). Tutkija opetti molemmille ryhmille englannin kieltä kaksi viikkotuntia. Englanninkieliset oppituokiot toteutettiin englannin tuntien yhteydessä noin kerran viikossa. Kerrallaan tuokio kesti 15–20 minuuttia. Tutkimusaineistoa, joka koostuu sekä kvalitatiivisesta että kvantitatiivisesta aineistosta, kerättiin eri tavoin: tutkija keräsi havaintomateriaalia päiväkirjaansa koko tutkimuksen ajan, oppijoita testattiin kuusi kertaa tutkimuksen aikana sekä itsearvio- ja asennekyselyjä toteutettiin kahdesti. Tutkimusaineiston pohjalta saatiin selviä tutkimustuloksia, joiden mukaan CLIL-opetus vaikutti oppijoihin positiivisesti: ympäristötiedon ainesisältöjä opittiin, englanninkielinen ympäristötiedon sanavarasto laajeni ja vierasta kieltä käytettiin rohkeammin kuin aiemmin. Kommunikoidessa huomio kiinnitettiin kielen tarkkailun sijasta asiasisältöön. Oppijat suhtautuivat englanninkielisiin oppituokioihin positiivisesti ja englannin osaaminen koettiin tärkeäksi. Tässäkin kokeilussa CLIL osoittautui joustavaksi metodiseksi lähestymistavaksi, joka taipuu käyttökelpoiseksi käytännön teoriaksi soveltuen monenlaisille oppijoille.

Este documento presenta el diseño de un proyecto para la asignatura de tecnología de tercero de educación secundaria obligatoria en un instituto de enseñanza bilingüe. Se perfilan una serie de tareas cíclicas que permitirán desarrollar a los alumnos una mayor comprensión sobre el uso de la energía y la importancia del medio ambiente a través de la lengua inglesa. Este ciclo de actividades organizadas en cuatro sesiones se fundamenta en la metodología del Aprendizaje Integrado de Contenidos y Lengua Extranjera, AICLE. A través de esta se persigue el doble objetivo del aprendizaje de la lengua a la par que el del contenido. Para ello, las estrategias que se proponen se centran en el alumno y se apoyan en el trabajo colaborativo, la interacción entre iguales y las metodologías activas y participativas en las que son los propios estudiantes los que diseñan los contenidos y los adaptan a su estilo de aprendizaje. Aunque sin resultados concluyentes, el trabajo supone una aportación más a las propuestas de actividades cooperativas que centran el aprendizaje en las aulas AICLE. This project presents the design of a teaching sequence for the subject of technology in the third grade in a bilingual high school. A task cycle is created with the double objective of providing students with a deeper understanding about the use of energy and the importance of the environment through the English language. The series of activities were organized in four sessions, attending to Content and Language Integrated Learning (CLIL) methodology. Throughout this double focussed objective of learning the language and the subject matter content at the same time, the strategies proposed are focused on the student and support collaborative work, peer interaction and active participatory methodologies, focussed in the students who are the real designers of the content materials based on their own learning style. Although no conclusive results are presented, this work aims to be a contribution to other cooperative task proposals as one of the main basis of CLIL methodology.

“Estudiantes motivados producen profesores motivados y viceversa” (Lesley Denham)La cita refleja el efecto recíproco que tiene el comportamiento del profesor en el compromiso de los estudiantes a lo largo del año y viceversa. Es sorprendente como, destacando las fortalezas de cada estudiante en lugar de sus debilidades, nunca comparándolos entre ellos sino con su propio rendimiento, puede despertar una motivación intrínseca en el estudiante, y una merecida satisfacción personal para el profesor.Sin embargo, no existen botones motivacionales mágicos que podamos pulsar y hacer que el alumno quiera aprender. Como profesores, tomar la iniciativa será crucial: dar a nuestros estudiantes el espacio suficiente para experimentar, realzar su autonomía, e intuir las respuestas a través de un proceso inductivo. En definitiva, hacerles protagonistas de su proceso de aprendizaje.Incluir AICLE en la clase de inglés es una metodología que nos ayudará a conseguirlo. Los estudiantes asocian AICLE con algo interesante y divertido, diferente a las sesiones teóricas. Como resultado, al utilizar la lengua, lo hacen movidos por sus sentimientos, aprendiendo de forma implícita.“Estudiants motivats produeixen professors motivats i viceversa” (Lesley Denham)La cita reflecteix l'efecte recíproc que té el comportament del professor en el compromís dels estudiants al llarg de l'any i viceversa. És sorprenent com, destacant les fortaleses de cada estudiant en lloc de les seves debilitats, mai comparant-los entre ells sinó amb el seu propi rendiment, pot despertar una motivació intrínseca a l'estudiant, i una merescuda satisfacció personal per al professor.No obstant això, no existeixen botons motivacionals màgics que puguem prémer i fer que l'alumne vulgui aprendre. Com a professors, prendre la iniciativa serà crucial: donar als nostres estudiants l'espai suficient per experimentar, realçar la seva autonomia, i intuir les respostes a través d'un procés inductiu. En definitiva, fer-los protagonistes del seu procés d'aprenentatge.Incloure AICLE en la classe d'anglès és una metodologia que ens ajudarà a aconseguir-ho. Els estudiants consideren AICLE interessant i divertit, diferent a les sessions teòriques. Com a resultat, en utilitzar la llengua, ho fan moguts pels seus sentiments, aprenent de forma implícita.

The Faculty of Business and Communication recently started an internationalization process that, in two year’s time, will allow all undergraduate students (studying Journalism, Audiovisual Communication, Advertising and Public Relations, Business and Marketing) to take 25% of their subjects in English using CLIL methodology. Currently, Journalism is the degree course with the greatest percentage of CLIL subjects, for example Current Affairs Workshop, a subject dedicated to analyzing current news using opinion genres. Moreover, because of the lack of other subjects offered in English, ERASMUS students have to take some journalism subjects in order to complete their international passport, and one of the classes they choose is the Current Affairs Workshop. The aim of this paper is to explore how CLIL methodology can be useful for learning journalistic opinion genres (chat-shows, discussions and debates) in a subject where Catalan Communication students –with different levels of English- share their knowledge with European students of other social disciplines. Students work in multidisciplinary groups in which they develop real radio and TV programs, adopting all the roles (moderator, technician, producer and participants), analyzing daily newspapers and other sources to create content, based on current affairs. This paper is based on the participant observation of the lecturers of the subject, who have designed different activities related to journalistic genres, where students can develop their skills according to the role they play in every assignment. Examples of successful lessons will be given, in addition to the results of the course: both positive and negative. Although the objective of the course is to examine professional routines related to opinion genres, and students are not directly graded on their level of English, the Catalan students come to appreciate how they finally overcome their fear of working in a foreign language. This is a basic result of their experience.

In this paper we study student interaction in English and Swedish courses at a Finnish university. We focus on language choices made in task-related activities in small group interaction. Our research interests arose from the change in the teaching curriculum, in which content and language courses were integrated at Tampere University of Technology in 2013. Using conversation analysis, we analysed groups of 4-5 students who worked collaboratively on a task via a video conference programme. The results show how language alternation has different functions in 1) situations where students orient to managing the task, e.g., in transitions into task, or where they orient to technical problems, and 2) situations where students accomplish the task. With the results, we aim to show how language alternation can provide interactional opportunities for language learning. The findings will be useful in designing tasks in the future.

International relations professionals need cross-cultural competence and English language communication skills to function in the international arena (Graddol 1997). English language communication skills are necessary not only to communicate with foreign colleagues (Bocanegra-Valle 2014) but also to access the vast amount of knowledge transmitted in English over the internet (Ku, Zussman 2010). This work reports the use of CLIL and cross-cultural training in the University of Messina International Relations Advanced Degree Program as a method to raise students’ level of English as quickly as possible while giving them the essential intercultural skills for work in the international field. The researchbased course program combined cross-cultural communication training (Storti, 1997; Lewis, 1999; Gannon, 2004, Harris and Moran, 2007; U.S Peace Corps Training Handbook 2012,) and intercultural competence skill development (Bennett, 1998). Two objectives were proposed: 1) develop cross-cultural communication competence; 2) bring students up to a B2 level as fast as possible. The final exam demonstrated significant growth in the areas of cross-cultural competence as well as an increase in European Common Framework level ranging from .5 to 1.0 depending on the student. Students expressed their belief that what they had learned would be useful for their future career. Combining CLIL with intercultural competence building seems to be effective in meeting two objectives: increasing English language fluency and developing cross-cultural communication competence. More research is recommended to further document this method for increasing English communication proficiency while developing interculturally competent international professionals.

The European Educational Institutions have the challenge and the commitment to enhance multilingual competence and teaching curricular subjects in a foreign language is seen as one of the most promising alternatives. In that context, professors teaching different engineering subjects at the School of Engineering of the UPC at Manresa (EPSEM) have been involved in projects aiming at analyzing the current linguistic situation and developing some on-line open access materials using CLIL as a strategy. They formed the u-Linguatech Research Group on Multilingual Communication in Science and Technology in order to provide such resources in an effective and efficient way. In this paper, we focus on students’ perception of the improvement of their multilingual competence throughout their Engineering degree, by means of subjects taught in English by non-native speakers. Data about the English level of current students are taken into account. We also describe the use of the above resources to improve the quality of subjects learning related to Chemical Engineering curricula.

The aim of this talk is to explore assessment in higher education and support for learners during their academic education. It investigates the assessment methods that provide success for universities and learners. Universities which implement CLIL should assess learners who would like to attend a programme in English without taking account of their English language qualifications. This assessment should be done in writing, listening and comprehension, speaking and reading and comprehension. In the literature, formative and summative assessments are considered. Formative assessment is ongoing, 'more complex as its intention is to be directly diagnostics with a view to immediately impacting on learner's next steps' (Coyle et al, 2010). Summative assessment occurs at the end of the term or course. McKay, 2006 divides assessment into three phases: design, operationalization and administration phase. If these three phases can't be embedded in the classroom as they are, they can be introduced as a set of questions; why?, how? and what?

Internationalization strategies and the European Space of Higher Education are causing a growing interest in English medium instruction (EMI). University linguistic and internationalization policies are attempting to provide lectures with the required training and education. Linguists can supply not only the knowledge of the language but the knowledge about language which may enable lecturers to increase their academic language competence autonomously. This paper presents a framework for the analysis of lecturers’ discourse to trigger reflection about the linguistic needs in CLIL/EMI contexts.

CLIL FAQs: Orientacions per a introduir l’anglès a l’aula universitària” és una publicació oberta dirigida als docents que assumeixen el repte d’introduir una llengua estrangera a l’aula. Es tracta d’un recull d’orientacions sorgides de la pràctica d’un equip interdisciplinari de professors de la Facultat de Ciències de l’Educació de la Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona en el marc d’un projecte de Millora de la Qualitat Docent (Ref. 2010MQD00132). La publicació exposa una sèrie de preguntes o FAQs (Frequent Asked Questions) que creiem que tot docent CLIL es podria fer abans d’introduir l’anglès a l’aula. El grup de docents implicats en el projecte, després de dissenyar coordinadament una sèrie d’activitats en anglès i d’implantar-les a les seves respectives assignatures, ha elaborat aquest llistat de FAQs que miren de respondre amb reflexions, suggeriments d’acció, estratègies didàctiques, exemples i recursos sorgits de la pròpia experiència. En aquest article situem el projecte en el context català, presentem com es va dur a terme i us expliquem què podeu trobar en la publicació que se’n deriva. A mode de conclusió oferim algunes reflexions del grup sobre el treball en equip interdisciplinari, la introducció del multilingüisme a l’aula, els contextos CLIL i la resposta dels alumnes.

Internationalisation of HE and emergence of English as a global academic lingua franca used by people who share neither a common native tongue nor cultural and educational background have not only offered more opportunities but also raised challenges. According to recent European surveys, the percentage of pupils attaining the level of independent user in English varies from 14% to 82%, which evidences the potential and the complexity for English as a medium of instruction at tertiary level. This study aims to present the model of foreign language instruction at Vytautas Magnus University where one third of 30 languages are taught through English. It investigates the attitudes and practices of teachers in delivering their English-medium language courses by discussing the questions whether teaching other languages through English is psychologically, culturally and educationally preferable for teachers and students, whether it can limit the content taught and require a special methodology, how the teaching process changes with multiple languages used in the classroom and what level of English is necessary for teachers and students to ensure high quality of English-medium language teaching. The study is based on qualitative methodology with 12 language teachers participating as respondents. The results reveal areas in need of improvement.

Des del 1995 el Consell Europeu ha promogut l’aprenentatge d’una segona llengua a través d’una altra àrea en el que coneixem per CLIL (Contingut i Llengua Integrats en l’Aprenentatge) o en altres paraules: “una activitat en la qual l’aprenentatge d’una llengua estrangera és utilitzada com una eina per l’aprenentatge d’una àrea no linguística en la qual llengua i contingut tenen un mateix paper” (Marsh, 2002). Tot I així, “ensenyar una àrea a través d’una llengua estrangera no és el mateix que la integració de llengua i contingut”. CLIL comporta altres implicacions metodològiques pel que fa a la planificació, estratègies didàctiques i particularment al rol del docent. De fet, són aquests factors els que componen l’èxit o el fracàs en l’implementació de CLIL. i per aquest motiu pretenc analitzar i descriure les diferències entre una sessió de CLIL i una de llengua anglesa. Aquesta investigació és un estudi de cas que vol oferir una mirada a les diferències entre una unitat de CLIL i una de llengua anglesa portades a terme en un grup de 3r de primària a l’escola de Sant Miquel dels Sants (Vic) pel que fa a la planificació, les estratègies i actuacions del docent.

L'objecte d'estudi d'aquest article és la relació entre l'educació física i l'aprenentatge de la llengua anglesa, per mitjà de l'enfocament educatiu AICLE (CLIL, en anglès), concretat en el programa Mou-te i aprèn. Pel que fa a l'educació física es fonamenta en la metodologia d'instrucció directa: global pura, anàlisi progressiu i anàlisi seqüencial, complementada amb estratègies d'aprenentatge cooperatiu. L'educació física és una forma diferent i excel-lent d'aprendre la llengua. La combinació de les diferents metodologies i tècniques són molt efectives per millorar alhora el llenguatge, la motricitat i la salut.
