History, context, and contents. Designing a CLIL Lesson Plan

Prof. Sandra Camelo

Tendencies in CLIL Planning

6. Bilingual syllabus 7. Immersion (bilingual/plurilingual) school 8. Submersion school (Foreign Language in native setting)

1. Topic-based language classes 2. Theme 'blocks' /embedding 3. Didactic Units 4. Entire Course 5. Plurilingual Degree Course

From Weak to Strong CLIL

Topic-Based Language Classes

The language plans the class around a series of topics

Studying part of a subject in the target language for some part of the academic year

Theme 'blocks' or embedding

Didactic Unit

Studying part of a subject in the target language for some part of the academic year

Studying an entire course in the target language for the whole academic year.

Entire Course.

Degree course with various subjects/ modules taught in the foreign language

Plurilingual Degree Course

The language of instruction is one of the many languages spoken in the community of immersion

Immersion School

The language of instruction is the local language of the native community, and therefore the only language spoken in the area.

Submersion School

Other CLIL models:

- Shelter courses offered by the Universities to support foreign students' L2 development -

Other CLIL models:

-Adjunct courses: Inter-departmental cooperation (language teacher and content teacher)

Other CLIL models:

-LAC or Language Across the Curriculum: Language teachers receive training in specific subject topics. Language teachers teach the subjects.
