Defining CLIL-based teaching:
• All teachers are teachers of language
Source: Bullock, 1975
• We use language to learn as well as to
communicate.
Source: McGuiness, 1999
• In the CLIL curriculum, it is the subject
matter which determines the language to
be learned.

Types of CLIL:
• Language-led – using content to illustrate
various language points
– Taught by language teachers: using materials dictated by
language syllabus
• Cross-curricular language – using content from
various curriculum areas
– Taught by language teachers: using materials in parallel with
other disciplines
• Bi-lingual education
– Taught by subject teachers: (often with language teachers)
using full subject curriculum in the target language

What is CLIL? The 4Cs Teaching Framework
• Content (subject matter, projects, themes)
• Communication (language and language
awareness)
• Cognition (thinking about what is being said
and reacting to it)
• Culture (citizenship, personal development,
awareness of global issues – economic,
cultural, historical, political)

each other
Authenticity – using current media on global issues
Active learning – students exchange views
Student-centered – teachers are facilitators;
students learn by doing
Building on student’s own knowledge, skills,
attitudes, interests and experience.
Challenging students to be creative, intellectually
adventurous, to develop as articulate citizens as well
as linguists.

• CLIL Develops confidence of pupils,
•
•
encourages them to take risks and get into
connected discourse quicker both written and
spoken
Cognitive measures show pupils did as well in
L2 as they did in L1 in easy tasks
In more difficult tasks they did better in L2
because they slow down and concentrate in FL
rather than take native speaker short cuts
