Course programme
Preparation
All participants are required to fill in a Pre-Course questionnaire. It is very important that this is returned at the
earliest opportunity as the course is pre-planned based on this. The course content is outlined and discussed on
the first morning, and is then adapted as appropriate.
Objectives
Participants will confirm their understanding of CLIL through discussion and input, thereby identifying how their teaching methods will need to be adapted. The course will look at what English language the teacher will need, how to identify key vocabulary items, how to lesson plan and creating practical tasks that can be used across a number of different class subjects. During the course participants will experience CLIL from a learners point of view; they will also share ideas related to current CLIL methodology and create tasks with a view to receiving feedback on their effectiveness from their peers.
Outcomes
In learning about the theoretical and practical aspects of CLIL and by sharing teaching knowledge and expertise, participants will have a wider understanding of teaching subjects through English
