Let’s CLIL (AICLE)

 

 
 
L’Associació Espiral, oferirà la segona part d’aquest curs a l’octubre amb una durada de 60 hores, per així poder completar les 90 hores sol·licitades pel Departament per tal d’activar el perfil lingüístic.

Description of the activity

In the recent years we have seen that many schools have opted to include English in subjects such as mathematics or science, which has been effective in improving the competence of students in both areas.

Throughout this process of implementation of these practises it has been generated a theoretical framework from different research and experiences, in order to ensure effective development and quality.

This course provides a methodological basis for CLIL (Content Language Integrated Learning) and ICT resources (research, mind maps, presentations, audio and video editors…) always related to the different aspects presented.

Target audience

This course will be done in English and it is not only addressed to English teachers but also to all educators interested in discovering a new and effective methodology.

Technical requirements
  • Updated Internet navigator (such as Mozilla Firefox, Google Chrome, others)
  • Text processor (open office writer, MS Word, others)
  • PDF reader (for example, Acrobat Reader or Foxit Reader)

Objectives
  • Promote the implementation of the key aspects of CLIL methodology.
  • Generate different materials and activities, under the CLIL framework and ICT resources implementation.
