CLIL-Methodology and ICT Tools for teachers working with CLIL -2 weeks
This 2 week course is a combination of our two, one-week courses; Practical Methodology for Teachers Working with CLIL and Technology & ICT Tools for Teachers Working with CLIL.
It introduces you to the principles of CLIL (Content and Language Integrated Learning) and analyses CLIL teaching techniques, including practical ways of integrating CLIL into a classroom teaching environment.
Description
The main aim of this course is to explore the dimensions and approach of CLIL teaching and to provide practical methodology in teaching through CLIL. During this two-week course, we will look at the principles of teaching through CLIL, and also at CLIL ICT tools to facilitate CLIL teaching.
The 5 Cs of CLIL will be presented, explored and discussed, leading to the design of a lesson. Other areas such as cognition and thinking skills, scaffolding, multimodality and using aids for teaching CLIL will be introduced. Assessment will also be examined on this course.
Also introduced will be various ICT tools to integrate technology into CLIL teaching. Participants will be able to design online CLIL units and webquests.
You will have ample opportunity to try out all of these tools as all our courses are designed to be hands-on and practical. You will be expected to take an active role in all sessions, maximising your use of English, and collaborating together with your fellow trainees to create your own resources.
During our group discussions, you will have the opportunity to share CLIL activities that you have created, and also to provide feedback to each other.
You will be asked to reflect upon the training received and you will come up with a Personal Development Action Plan, selecting tools and activities you would like to try out in your own classes.
