Pedagogical practices that are effective in content courses are often effective in CLIL courses too, yet one such practice – content compression – is generally neglected. Content compression is the purposeful reduction of the content to be taught; however, the CLIL literature often warns against the reduction and simplification of content for fear that it might harm students’ understanding of the subject content. This paper explains the ostensibly paradoxical result that content compression improves students’ understanding of content and shows why it is well suited to CLIL, if applied correctly. It presents content compression principles and techniques that are appropriate to content production and teaching practice in the CLIL classroom and shows how it was used to enhance language acquisition by students in a CLIL business course at a Colombian university over a period of three semesters. This experience suggested that content compression, in combination with other pedagogical practices, not only increased students’ linguistic confidence, but also enhanced their perceived learning in both content and language.
在内容课程中有效的教学实践通常在CLIL课程中也有效,然而这样的实践-内容压缩-通常被忽视。内容压缩是有目的地减少要教的内容;然而,CLIL文献经常警告不要减少和简化内容,担心这可能会损害学生对主题内容的理解。本文解释了表面上看似矛盾的结果,即内容压缩提高了学生对内容的理解,并展示了为什么如果应用得当,它非常适合CLIL。本文介绍了适用于CLIL课堂内容制作和教学实践的内容压缩原则和技术,并展示了如何在哥伦比亚一所大学为期三个学期的CLIL商务课程中使用它来提高学生的语言习得。这一经验表明,内容压缩与其他教学实践相结合,不仅增加了学生的语言自信,而且还增强了他们在内容和语言方面的感知学习。

The novel exigencies of the 2020 COVID-19 pandemic caused a shift towards online learning environments and teleconference platforms, which have also affected teaching practicums. The impact of this approach on teacher preparation is yet unknown and may render pre-service teachers (PSTs) more vulnerable to the challenges of early professional learning through practice, especially when implementing a methodology they have been insufficiently introduced to. Following three students of primary teacher education who opted for a practicum in a CLIL class at a Finnish teacher training school, this case study examines how the online practicum affected these PSTs’ emotions and understanding of CLIL. The case study is based on the analytical categories of teacher identity and emotion and draws on essay, diary, and interview data. The thematic analysis of the data suggests that the online practicum met participants’ expectations for building confidence and was perceived as an overall instructive experience, which was improved by the quality of mentorship and peer support they received. However, feelings of frustration or dissatisfaction accompanied moments of conflict with incoming expectations, principally related to using English in CLIL. The analysis further suggests that the online practicum strengthened participants’ earlier conception of CLIL as a language-oriented teaching tool. Regardless of whether online CLIL practicums remain a future option, acquiring disciplinary and language knowledge alike are important aspects in teacher preparation for CLIL, which could be an optional part of teacher education programs for PSTs who are aware of or sensitive to language as a tool for learning.
2020年新冠肺炎大流行带来的新紧急情况促使学校转向在线学习环境和远程会议平台,这也影响了教学实习。这种方法对教师培养的影响尚不清楚,可能使职前教师(pst)更容易受到通过实践进行早期专业学习的挑战,特别是在实施他们尚未充分了解的方法时。本案例研究追踪了三名小学教师教育的学生,他们选择在芬兰教师培训学校的CLIL课堂上进行实习,研究了在线实习如何影响这些教师的情绪和对CLIL的理解。案例研究基于教师身份和情感的分析类别,并借鉴了论文、日记和访谈数据。对数据的专题分析表明,在线实习满足了参与者对建立信心的期望,并被视为一种整体的有益体验,这一点因他们获得的指导和同伴支持的质量而得到改善。然而,挫折或不满的感觉伴随着与期望冲突的时刻,主要与在CLIL中使用英语有关。分析进一步表明,在线实习强化了参与者早期将CLIL作为语言导向教学工具的概念。无论在线CLIL实习是否仍然是未来的选择,获得学科和语言知识都是教师为CLIL做准备的重要方面,对于意识到或对语言作为学习工具敏感的pst来说,这可能是教师教育计划的一个可选部分。

The Content and Language Integrated Learning (CLIL) approach has become one of the most frequent teaching options used as a pivotal element of bilingual programs. Over the last two decades, a lot has been written about its characteristics, its potential, and the methodological approaches that should be used to encourage such programs. Since the main objective of CLIL is to improve the use of the foreign language as a vehicle for communication by students when accessing and manipulating content matter, it seems evident that methodological strategies should be promoted to provide the opportunity to maximize the use of the language within the classroom. In this respect, project-based learning (PBL) is depicted, in principle, as an ideal proposal for CLIL, since its implementation will entail an increase in language management. Especially concerning the content, this will result in an improvement in students’ ability to perform more comfortably in school and, presumably, more effectively. Nevertheless, there might not be such a straightforward cause-effect relationship and, therefore, it is necessary to dig deeper into the real impact of using PBL. This study is aimed at analyzing its influence from the students’ point of view, to drill down on their feelings and behavior towards PBL and how they tackle and solve the arising challenges. Results have shown interesting information about their views on the benefits of working by projects but also some concerns regarding the use of this teaching and learning model.
内容和语言综合学习(CLIL)方法已经成为双语课程中最常用的教学选择之一。在过去的二十年里,关于它的特点,它的潜力,以及应该用来鼓励这类项目的方法方法已经写了很多。由于CLIL的主要目标是提高学生在访问和操纵内容时将外语作为交流工具的使用,因此很明显,应该促进方法策略,以提供在课堂上最大限度地使用语言的机会。在这方面,基于项目的学习(PBL)原则上被描述为CLIL的理想建议,因为它的实施将需要增加语言管理。特别是在内容方面,这将导致学生在学校表现更舒适的能力的提高,想必也更有效。然而,可能不存在如此直接的因果关系,因此,有必要深入挖掘使用PBL的实际影响。本研究旨在从学生的角度分析其影响,深入了解他们对PBL的感受和行为,以及他们如何应对和解决出现的挑战。结果显示了他们对项目工作的好处的看法的有趣信息,但也有一些关于使用这种教学模式的担忧。

This study discusses the implementation of English medium instruction (EMI) at a Colombian university. First, the paper reviews the rise of EMI in the internationalization of higher education. Second, it illustrates how one university incorporated EMI as part of an internationalization process. Third, it identifies the perceptions that a group of administrators, faculty, and students have regarding the EMI initiative. Questionnaires, semi-structured interviews, and document analysis were conducted. Findings suggest that EMI is tied to the structuring of an internationalization office, curricular reforms, and English language learning support. Participants’ perceptions are associated with their imaginaries, identities, experiences, and obligations in relation to the English language. The study concludes that the implementation of EMI within the internationalization of universities is inevitable, yet a sustainable EMI strategy requires contextual awareness and articulation amongst its participants.Received: 28/02/2020Accepted: 18/09/2020
本研究探讨了哥伦比亚一所大学英语媒介教学(EMI)的实施。首先,本文回顾了EMI在高等教育国际化中的兴起。其次,它说明了一所大学如何将EMI作为国际化进程的一部分。第三,它确定了一组管理人员,教师和学生对EMI倡议的看法。问卷调查、半结构化访谈和文献分析。研究结果表明,EMI与国际化办公室的结构、课程改革和英语学习支持有关。参与者的感知与他们对英语语言的想象、身份、经历和义务有关。该研究的结论是,在大学国际化中实施电磁干扰是不可避免的,但可持续的电磁干扰战略需要参与者之间的上下文意识和衔接。收稿日期:28/02/2020收稿日期:18/09/2020

The present study was an attempt to investigate the effect of the analysis matrix, a type of graphic organizer, as a language improvement supportive attempt on fostering reading comprehension in an EFL academic context. The main question this study tried to answer was whether using this technique might enhance reading comprehension abilities among Iranian non-English majors. To achieve this goal, 120 nursing and microbiology majors were randomly selected from a population of the non-English majors enrolled for the Academic English course. They were divided into four groups of 30 and were randomly assigned to two experimental groups and two control groups. A pre-test of reading comprehension was administered to all groups. Then, they were taught passages to read for eight sessions with different methods; the experimental groups received a treatment of analysis matrix technique instruction while the control groups were taught with the traditional method, including no summarization instruction. A post-test of reading comprehension was finally administered to all groups. The data were analyzed using one-way analysis of covariance (ANCOVA) to control the effects of the pre-test on the outcomes. The results indicated a statistically significant difference due to pedagogical intervention; the two experimental groups outperformed on the post-test after being treated with analysis matrix technique for eight sessions.
本研究旨在探讨分析矩阵(一种图形整理工具)在英语学术语境下对培养阅读理解能力的支持作用。本研究试图回答的主要问题是,使用这种方法是否可以提高伊朗非英语专业学生的阅读理解能力。为了实现这一目标,从参加学术英语课程的非英语专业人群中随机选择120名护理和微生物学专业的学生。他们被分为四组,每组30人,随机分为两个实验组和两个对照组。对所有组进行阅读理解前测试。然后,用不同的方法教他们读八段文章;实验组采用分析矩阵技术教学,对照组采用传统方法进行教学,不进行总结教学。最后对所有组进行阅读理解后测。采用单向协方差分析(ANCOVA)对数据进行分析,以控制前测对结果的影响。结果显示,由于教学干预,差异有统计学意义;经分析矩阵技术治疗8次后,两个实验组在后测中表现优异。

CLIL in Pharmacology: Enabling Student Voice 药理学CLIL:激发学生声音

Over the past decades, the integration of content and language in education has been gaining ground in different design formats and at various levels of education worldwide. This study describes a pilot project carried out at the School of Pharmacy of an Italian University, using a partial-CLIL format, as this was the only model accepted for experimentation by the School. The terms partial CLIL and adjunct CLIL describe different degrees of integration. Since this was the first trial with students from the Pharmacy program, the main concern was finding out how they would respond to such an “‘innovative” approach. Despite the plethora of literature available on CLIL in higher education, there is a lack of research regarding students’ views on the issue; no consideration seems to be given to the main protagonists who undergo this “novel” approach. Hence, the aim of the study was to seek students’ voice on the experience—their thoughts and feelings. Student perceptions are essential for future didactical applications. A mixed method approach to data collection was employed to give strong validity to the data (direct observation, focus group interview followed by a survey questionnaire). The preliminary findings gathered from the qualitative and quantitative analysis contribute positively to the organization of CLIL courses in higher education. Overall, the results reveal positive student views, but, at the same time, encourage reflections for teachers and stakeholders on how to prepare students for CLIL lessons and on structuring CLIL programs for future implementations.To reference this article (APA) / Para citar este articulo (APA) / Para citar este artigo (APA)Filice, S.

在过去的几十年里,教育内容和语言的融合在世界各地不同的设计形式和不同的教育水平上取得了进展。这项研究描述了一个在意大利大学药学院进行的试点项目,使用部分CLIL格式,因为这是该学院唯一接受的实验模型。术语部分CLIL和附属CLIL描述了不同程度的集成。由于这是第一次对药学项目的学生进行试验,主要关注的是了解他们将如何应对这种“创新”的方法。尽管高等教育中有大量关于CLIL的文献,但缺乏关于学生对该问题的看法的研究;似乎没有考虑到采用这种“新颖”方法的主要主人公。因此,本研究的目的是寻求学生对这一经历的声音——他们的思想和感受。学生的认知对未来的教学应用至关重要。采用混合方法收集数据,以增强数据的有效性(直接观察、焦点小组访谈,然后是调查问卷)。从定性和定量分析中收集的初步结果对高等教育中CLIL课程的组织做出了积极贡献。总的来说,研究结果揭示了积极的学生观点,但同时也鼓励教师和利益相关者思考如何为学生上CLIL课程做好准备,以及如何为未来的实施构建CLIL计划。参考本文(APA)/Para-citar este articolo(APA。药理学CLIL:为学生发声。《拉丁美洲内容与语言综合学习杂志》,13(2),313–338。https://doi.org/10.5294/laclil.2020.13.2.7Received:2020年4月24日接受:2020年8月10日发布:2020年1月13日

This study aims at documenting the challenges that three Mexican students participating in a Content-Based Instruction (CBI) module from a Master’s (MA) program in English Language Teaching (ELT) face when writing content and language objectives for CBI lessons. Through qualitative research based on a content analysis design, one lesson plan of each MA student (n=3) was analyzed using criteria proposed by well-known researchers. Results revealed that MA students wrote clear content objectives. The major challenge of content objectives was found in the observability of these objectives. Language objectives were less successful, as most of them were rated as not clear. Moreover, language objectives focused almost exclusively on language skills and grammar and language structures. Finally, the verbs used in the language objectives demanded a low-order cognitive category from students. Despite being EFL trained teachers, these MA students had more challenges in writing language objectives than content objectives. Thus, material, examples, and directions provided to students should explicitly draw students’ attention to the most common challenges to help overcome them.Received: 23/07/2019Accepted: 28/02/2020
本研究旨在记录三名参加英语语言教学(ELT)硕士(MA)项目的基于内容的教学(CBI)模块的墨西哥学生在为CBI课程撰写内容和语言目标时所面临的挑战。通过基于内容分析设计的定性研究,采用知名研究者提出的标准对每位硕士学生(n=3)的一份教案进行分析。结果显示,硕士生的写作内容目标明确。内容目标的主要挑战在于这些目标的可观察性。语言目标不太成功,因为大多数被评为不清楚。此外,语言目标几乎完全集中在语言技能、语法和语言结构上。最后,语言目标中使用的动词需要学生的低阶认知范畴。尽管是受过英语培训的教师,这些硕士学生在写作语言目标方面比内容目标面临更多的挑战。因此,提供给学生的材料、例子和指导应该明确地将学生的注意力吸引到最常见的挑战上,以帮助他们克服这些挑战。收稿日期:23/07/2019收稿日期:28/02/2020

Thus, material, examples, and directions provided to students should explicitly draw students’ attention to the most common challenges to help overcome them.\u0000Received: 23/07/2019\u0000Accepted: 28/02/2020","PeriodicalId":43989,"journal":{"name":"Latin American Journal of Content & Language Integrated-LACLIL","volume":"13 1","pages":"215-240"},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2021-01-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44456178","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Uso de la literatura infantil para ensenar las 4 C de AICLE: una revision sistematica de los estudios de ingles como lengua extranjeraUso da literatura infantil no ensino das 4 C de CLIL: uma revisao sistematica dos estudos de ingles como lingua estrangeiraThis systematic review examines whether the use of children’s literature in EFL classrooms supports the 4Cs of CLIL—content, communication, cognition, and culture. Previous research has shown many benefits for using children’s literature in English-dominant classroom settings, but it seems little attention has been given to its use in EFL contexts and no attention in CLIL. This study utilizes a systematic search strategy to collect and synthesize current research on children’s literature use in EFL settings in order to better understand how children’s literature may impact EFL student learning and, specifically, examine whether its use can meet the 4Cs of CLIL. Records from four databases were screened for studies using children’s literature in EFL settings, resulting in the inclusion of 15 articles. The analysis of the articles reveals that current research shows evidence that the use of children’s literature can help facilitate student learning in content, communication, cognition, and culture. However, despite this clear connection to the goals of CLIL, investigations on children’s literature remain absent from CLIL research. We believe this research lends support for the use of children’s literature in the CLIL classroom and calls for more attention, both by practitioners and researchers, toward the use of children’s literature in CLIL classrooms.To reference this article (APA) / Para citar este articulo (APA) / Para citar este artigo (APA)Graham, K.

儿童文学的修订系统是指儿童文学在英语课堂上的使用是否支持儿童文学的4Cs——内容、交流、,认知和文化。先前的研究表明,在英语占主导地位的课堂环境中使用儿童文学有很多好处,但似乎很少关注它在EFL环境中的使用,也没有关注CLIL。本研究采用系统的搜索策略来收集和综合当前关于儿童文学在EFL环境中使用的研究,以更好地了解儿童文学如何影响EFL学生的学习,特别是检查其使用是否符合CLIL的4Cs。对四个数据库中的记录进行了筛选,以进行在EFL环境中使用儿童文学的研究,结果纳入了15篇文章。对文章的分析表明,目前的研究表明,使用儿童文学有助于促进学生在内容、沟通、认知和文化方面的学习。然而,尽管这与CLIL的目标有着明确的联系,但对儿童文学的调查仍然没有出现在CLIL的研究中。我们相信,这项研究支持了儿童文学在CLIL课堂中的使用,并呼吁从业者和研究人员更多地关注儿童文学在课堂中的应用。参考本文(APA)/Para-citar este articolo(APA,Para-citar este artigo)Graham,K.M.、Mathews,S.D.和Eslami,Z.R(2020)。利用儿童文学教授英语教学语言4级:对外语研究的系统回顾。《拉丁美洲内容与语言综合学习杂志》,13(2),163–189。https://doi.org/10.5294/laclil.2020.13.2.2Recibido:2019年10月19日截止日期:2020年3月21日

The world continues to evolve, where globalization has been the driving factor behind changes in society, thereby creating challenges that could be seen as opportunities in education. Areas such as collaboration, teamwork along with intercultural awareness and communication are just a few of the areas that are being addressed in the educational arena amongst practitioners. Approaches such as Content and Language Integrated Learning (CLIL), Content Based Instruction (CBI) and English as a Medium of Instruction (EMI) have proven to be viable options for bi/multilingual educational environments across the globe. This editorial discusses research from four continents – the Americas, Asia, Europe, and the Middle East (The United States of America, Taiwan, Iran, Mexico, Turkey, Colombia, Puerto Rico, and Italy) – reporting on the diversity in integrating content and language in bi/multilingual teaching environments.Key issues such as children’s literature and CLIL, reading comprehension in English as a Foreign Language (EFL), language objectives in lesson plans and assessment in content-based instruction. Furthermore, EMI and the internationalization of higher education, teachers’, and students’ beliefs on the use of Spanish in an advanced English classroom and the implementation of CLIL in the field of pharmacology will also be discussed, where insights into how content and language are integrated at the different educational levels.
世界在不断发展,全球化一直是社会变革的驱动因素,从而产生了可以被视为教育机会的挑战。合作、团队合作以及跨文化意识和沟通等领域只是从业者在教育领域正在解决的几个领域。内容和语言综合学习(CLIL)、基于内容的教学(CBI)和英语作为教学媒介(EMI)等方法已被证明是全球双语/多语言教育环境的可行选择。这篇社论讨论了来自美洲、亚洲、欧洲和中东四大洲(美国、台湾、伊朗、墨西哥、土耳其、哥伦比亚、波多黎各和意大利)的研究,报告了在双语/多语言教学环境中整合内容和语言的多样性。诸如儿童文学和CLIL、英语阅读理解、课程计划中的语言目标以及基于内容的教学中的评估等关键问题。此外,还将讨论EMI和高等教育的国际化,教师和学生对在高级英语课堂上使用西班牙语的看法,以及CLIL在药理学领域的实施,深入了解不同教育水平的内容和语言是如何整合的。

Considering the pivotal role of assessment, this study aimed to investigate the attitudes of the students and the teachers towards the assessment component of a customized content and language integrated learning in an English as a foreign language program implemented at the tertiary level in Turkey. It also sought to study its effectiveness as a tool for the integrated assessment of language and content. Data were obtained by a mixed-method research approach from 525 university freshman students and 17 English language teachers via questionnaires and follow-up interviews with the teachers and the students. The results indicated that both the students and the teachers developed positive attitudes towards the assessment component of content and language integrated learning. The assessment component was also found to be an adequate tool for the integrated assessment of content and language.To reference this article (APA) / Para citar este articulo (APA) / Para citar este artigo (APA)Isik, A.
