- CLIL (Content and Language Integrated Learning) is a dual-focused approach that integrates both subject/thematic content and language development, with varying emphasis depending on context. - There are no uniform CLIL models as implementations are adapted to local conditions, but underlying pedagogical principles from constructivism and language acquisition theories guide CLIL. - The 4Cs conceptual framework outlines key dimensions of CLIL - Content, Cognition, Communication, and Culture.

1. Backdoor language teaching Additional subject teaching ‘ Dumbing down’ of subject content Threatening subject specialism Elitist for more able students only Foreign teachers Teaching what students already know CLIL is not :

2. CLIL is dual– focussed encompassing both subject or thematic and language develop-ment although, depending on the context and variables within, there may be a predominance of one over the other but never to exclusion. However, it is the interpretation of the integration of content and language in CLIL which has major implications for and impact on the development of CLIL pedagogies . Do Coyle CLIL is:

4. Content vs. language content language

5. CLIL models are by no means uniform. They are elaborated at a local level to respond to local conditions and desires. Indeed the characteristics of CLIL developments in Europe show a great variety of solutions... It is the combination of the choices in respect to the variables that produce a particular CLIL. Coonan (2003, 27) CLIL is flexible

6. a particular CLIL pedagogy (scientific research on CLIL experiences is only starting to arise) a prescriptive model for planning modules and lessons in CLIL (CLIL practices are strongly dependent on different contexts) There IS NOT

9. The 4Cs conceptual framework for CLIL Coyle (1999, 2005)

10. It includes the knowledge to be taught, and it is the main principle as the three remaining ones are subject to it. CLIL is not possible if the underlying content is not clear. CONTENT

11. It is devoted to the language skills. Language should be carefully planned for CLIL to be successful, as it determines the shape of thoughts and the learner’s grade of competence. COMMUNICATION
