CLIL
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.
The Scribner Handbook for Writers
With the first edition selling quite well in the retail market, this successful handbook for writers has been revised to strengthen its practical focus on helping novice writers make connections between thinking, reading, and writing. KEY TOPICS: This reference is ideal for anyone wishing to strengthen their writing and communication skills. It connects good writing to grammar and usage principles and continues to remain the strongest handbook in the treatments of exploratory, analytical, and argumentative writing. The writing and research sections are also exceptional, and new sections thoroughly explain how to evaluate, integrate, and document on-line and Internet source material. This guide should be on the bookshelves of writers, researchers, and teachers alike.
Assessment and Learning in Content and Language Integrated Learning (CLIL) Classrooms
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...

The book contains a wide range of easily accessible activities that can be used in any order. Dedicated subject pages include annotated extracts from authentic school teaching materials, demonstrating how language is used in particular school subjects, such as geography, science, maths and ICT. The accompanying CD-ROM contains print-ready CLIL activities.
Current Trends in the Development and Teaching of the four Language Skills

It comprises twenty-one chapters that are grouped in five sections. The first section includes an introductory chapter which presents a communicative competence framework developed by the editors in order to highlight the key role the four skills play in language learning and teaching. The next four sections each represent a language skill: Section II is devoted to listening, Section III to speaking, Section IV to reading and Section V to writing. In order to provide an extensive treatment of each of the four skills, each section st...
The Non-native Teacher
Péter Medgyes’ voice was the first and one of the most prominent speaking out for many teachers whose first language is one other than English, whose own voices had been silenced after almost a century of systematically being considered failed native speakers, deficient communicators and second-best teachers.
Plurilingual Pedagogies
This book critically engages with theoretical shifts marked by the ‘multilingual turn’ in applied linguistics, and articulates the complexities associated with naming and engaging with the everyday language practices of bi/multilingual communities. It discusses methodological approaches that enable researchers and educators to observe and interact with these communities and to understand their teaching and learning needs. It also highlights pedagogical approaches and instructional strategies involved with learning and teaching language and/or content curriculum to students across various learning and educational contexts. The book addresses recent debates on the multi/plural turn in appl...
