CLIL (Content and Language Integrated Learning)  

Convenors:

 

Content and Language Integrated Learning (CLIL) refers to educational approaches that allow for improved foreign/second language learning in combination with content learning in a variety of language and non-language subjects, e.g. Geography, History, Sports, Maths or, on the tertiary level, Business, Law or IT. CLIL started as a European undertaking, but has rapidly spread to other continents. CLIL strongly relates to other contextualized language teaching approaches such as immersion education or content-based language teaching. Content and Language Integrated Learning has not only been a highly popular educational innovation in Europe and elsewhere, but it has also attracted a wide range of research interests and undertakings. The Research Network on Content and Language Integrated Learning (CLIL ReN) aims at joining expertise of CLIL researchers in language acquisition, language use, language pedagogy and subject pedagogy.
