4. CLIL
El Aprendizaje Integrado de Contenidos y
Lenguas Extranjeras (AICLE)
CLIL stands for Content and Language Integrated Learning. It refers
to teaching subjects such as science, history and geography to
students through a foreign language. This can be by the English
teacher using cross-curricular content or the subject teacher using
English as the language of instruction. Both methods result in the
simultaneous learning of content and English.
The term CLIL was coined by David Marsh and Anne Maljers ,
University of Jyväskylä, Finland (1994): "CLIL refers to
situations where subjects, or parts of subjects, are taught
through a foreign language with dual-focused aims, namely
the learning of content and the simultaneous learning of a
foreign language."
5. How does CLIL work?
Learning improves due motivation – natural L
Teaching of CA is done in other L
Based on L Acq not enforced learning
L knowledge becomes means of learning
L builds on other forms of learning
L is integrated in broad curriculum
Errors are natural part of L learning
Long term learning. Academic proficiency
Reading is a essential skill
Fluency more important than accuracy
Use L to communicate for a variety of purposes

PRINCIPLES
OF CLIL
At the heart of a learning
process lie successful
content or thematic learning
and the acquisition of
knowledge, skills and
understanding. Content is the
subject or the project theme
Language is a conduit for
communication and for
learning. The formula
learning to use language
and using language to
learn is applicable here
There must be challenge for
learners to think and review and
engage in higher order thinking
skills. CLIL is not about the transfer
of knowledge from an expert to a
novice. CLIL is about allowing
individuals to construct their own
understanding and be challenged
Studying through a foreign
language is fundamental to
fostering international
understanding. ‘Otherness’ is
a vital concept and holds the
key for discovering self.
Culture can have wide
interpretation – eg. through
pluricultural citizenship
14. THE 4Cs – THE 3 As
Stage 1: Analyse content for the language of learning
Stage 2: Add to content language for learning
Stage 3: Apply to content language through learning
