CLIL (Content and Language Integrated Learning) is an educational approach that teaches non-language subjects through the medium of a foreign language. It has a dual focus on language and subject learning. A successful CLIL lesson combines elements of content, communication, cognition, and culture by using language to learn content while developing thinking and language skills. Barriers to implementing CLIL programs include the need for new collaboration between subject and language teachers, new pedagogical practices, lack of teacher training in CLIL, difficulties assessing language and content, and lack of resources.

5. A successful CLIL lesson should
combine elements of the following:
Content Progression in knowledge, skills and
understanding related to specific
elements of a defined curriculum.
Communication Using language to learn whilst learning
to use language.
Cognition Developing thinking skills which link
concept formation, understanding
and language.
Culture Exposure to alternative perspectives
and shared understandings, which
deepen awareness of otherness and
self.

7. Lesson plan
Dialoguing
• 4cs aims
– Content: sources – material
– Communication: language
development
– Culture: otherness?
– Cognitive: Bloom-s taxonomy –
remember – understand – apply –
analyse – evaluate - create

8. Barriers to a CLIL Programme
• New kinds of collaboration between subject
specialists and language specialists are required.
• New kinds of pedagogical practices are required.
• CLIL is developing at a faster rate than the training of
teachers.
• For many adults CLIL is counterintuitive (they are not
generation ‘Y’).
• Difficulties in assessment of content and language.
• Learners may revert to L1.
• Lack of resources.
