This first approach to CLIL will enable you to have a basic knowledge on this very powerful methodology. You will learn how this methodology works and how to use it in your classes through a combination of practical and collaborative activities and the use of other complementary methodologies (Flipped Classroom, for instance).

This training course has been designed to be a CLIL example. The trainees will learn the content related to the methodology at the same time that they will have the chance to improve their command of English (in case they need it).

Course evaluation

The trainees will have to show an active participation throughout all the course, as the activities have been designed to be active and collaborative. Through this collaboration, they will create a CLIL plan with all the tools and techniques they learn throughout the course. They will have to present this plan to the rest of the trainees. This way, they will leave with several sample plans.

Every session there will be a part for reflection, as assessment for learning is one key element in any good teaching, especially if it is CLIL. This process will help the trainees interiorize everything dealt with throughout that day.

The CLIL course has been designd as a Task-Based Learning experience, with a lot of group work and dealing with non-linguistic content; much in the way a true CLIL course would have been designed.

Comments:

The course will be practical. We will work from the examples and we expect the trainees to do an effort outside of the training course and reflect upon the activities we develop in the class so they can understand the theories and techniques behind the examples we will have experienced.
