CLIL- Content and Language Integrated Learning
Preparation
The course provider sends the necessary information regarding the course materials to the beneficiary school. After the detailed information about accommodation, transportation and eating and drinking of the visiting teachers is sent to the schools, a preliminary information is given to the leading teachers about the content of the course.
Description
This course is designed to help teachers learn about the CLIL approach to teaching.CLIL is an abbreviation for Content and Language Integrated Learning. It is a way of teaching where subject content, for example, history, science or maths etc.is taught in another language.
CLIL (Content and Language Integrated Learning) is a new language education approach that envisages the integration of some subjects and contents of courses such as mathematics, science and social sciences into foreign language courses, thus establishing interdisciplinary relationships between the second language and other courses. CLIL is a method that enables both the reinforcement of the course contents in question and the learning of the terms, concepts and words of those contents in foreign languages, thus increasing the efficiency of learning. At the same time, it is an approach that shows that all lessons are actually interrelated and opens the door to holistic learning. The CLIL program facilitates language learning as it incorporates the context of other lessons, and also ensures that what is learned in that language is more meaningful and valuable to the student. The subjects taught in foreign language lessons also play a reinforcing role in terms of the lessons to which those subjects belong.
