A Deeper Learning Companion for CLIL
If education is to prepare learners for lifelong learning, there needs to be a shift towards deeper learning: a focus on transferable knowledge and problem-solving skills alongside the development of a positive or growth mind-set. Deeper learning is inextricably linked with CLIL (Content and Language Integrated Learning) – a revolutionary teaching approach where students study subjects in a different language. Designed as a companion to the influential volume Beyond CLIL, this highly practical book offers step-by-step instruction for designing and implementing innovative tasks and materials for pluriliteracies development. It contains annotated case studies of deeper learning lesson plans across a wide range of school subjects, using an innovative and proven template, to help teachers explore the potential of deeper learning inside their own classrooms. Theoretically grounded, this book offers a roadmap for schools, ranging from exploratory first steps, to transdisciplinary projects, to whole school moves for curriculum development and transformative pedagogies.
Interkulturelle Perspektivität als Potenzial bilingualen Geschichtsunterrichts?
Wo liegt das besondere Potenzial bilingualen Geschichtsunterrichts im Vergleich zu deutschsprachigem? Ein Spezifikum ist der durch die Bilingualität konstruierte Blick auf die Vergangenheit, der dem deutschsprachigen einen in der zweiten Sprache konzeptionalisierten zur Seite stellen kann. Anhand des Themas »Imperialismus« zeigt eine Schulbuchanalyse mithilfe des Concept Mapping-Verfahrens Sinnbildungen auf, die im deutsch- und englischsprachigen Rahmen vorherrschen. Ob bilingual unterrichtete Schüler*innen beide Konzepte eher wahrnehmen, zwischen ihnen differenzieren und unter ihnen koordinieren können als deutschsprachig unterrichtete, zeigt eine an diese Schulbuchanalyse anknüpfende...
Beyond CLIL
Offers an innovative, holistic and evidence-based pedagogic approach to deeper learning for all subjects of schooling.
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.
Plurilingual and Pluricultural Awareness in Language Teacher Education
The LEA (Language Educator Awareness) training kit comprises a set of practical instruments designed to help teacher educators introduce the essential aspects of plurilingualism and pluriculturalism to language teachers and learners. It consists of a printed booklet setting out the rationale for a series of training activities, which are contained on an accompanying CD-Rom. The kit encourages language teachers to reflect on the notion of diversity, which is so fundamental an element in the process of linguistic and communicative education - the "dialogue with the other". Its ultimate goal is to contribute towards building a school capable of providing local and global perspectives on the language curriculum, of offering communication opportunities with peoples and cultures from far away as well as nearby and of promoting the ability to speak languages with different statuses and functions.
Cross-Language Mediation in Foreign Language Teaching and Testing
This book contributes to the growing field of foreign language teaching and testing by shedding light on mediation between languages. Stathopoulou offers an empirically-grounded definition of mediation as a form of translanguaging and offers tools and methods for further research in multilingual testing. The book explores what cross-language mediation entails, what processes and strategies are involved, and the challenges often faced by mediators. As well as stressing the importance of administering tests which favour cross-language mediation practices, the author encourages the implementation of language programmes which promote the mingling-of-languages idea and target the development of language learners’ effective translanguaging practices. Researchers studying translanguaging, multilingualism, multilingual testing and the use of mother tongue in the foreign language classroom will all find this book of interest.
Evaluating Bilingual Education in Germany
A quasi-experimental study on 1,000 learners shows large initial differences between future CLIL and non-CLIL students due to selection and preparation effects. After two years, a model-based evaluation finds a small increase in EFL academic self-concept, but no CLIL-related benefits for general English proficiency or interest in EFL classes.
Language Teaching Through the Ages
Konrad Koerner, a leading historian of linguistics, has long said that an academic field cannot be considered to have matured until it has history as one of its subfields. The history of linguistics is a growing area, having come into its own in the 1960s, especially after Noam Chomsky looked for historical roots for his work. In contrast, the history of language teaching has been neglected, reflecting the insecurity and youth of the field. Most works on the subject have been written by linguists for other linguists, and typically focus on a specific period or aspect of history. This volume concentrates on the basic issues, events, and threads of the history of the field - from Mesopotamia to the present - showing how a knowledge of this history can inform the practice of language teaching in the present.
