The integration of content and language in students’ task answer production in the bilingual classroom
2016
The notion of content and language integration has recently become a key topic of inquiry in research on content and language integrated learning and other kinds of bilingual educational programmes. Understanding what integration is and how it happens is of fundamental importance not only for researchers interested in gauging the possibilities and limitations of bilingual programmes, but also for practitioners seeking optimal ways to support student development. This study investigates integration as it takes place in the context of collaborative writing in the classroom. Drawing on conversation analytic methodology, text production is investigated as a social and sequentially evolving phen…

CLIL teachers as materials designers
2014
Vieraskielinen sisällönopetus (CLIL), jossa kouluaineita opetetaan vieraalla kielellä, on kasvattanut suosiotaan varsinkin Euroopassa. Sisällön ja kielen oppimisen tulokset CLIL-opetuksessa ovat yleisesti hyviä, mutta menetelmä on opettajalle työläs pääasiassa siksi, että CLIL-materiaaleja on tuskin ollenkaan saatavilla. Sopivien materiaalien etsiminen, muokkaaminen ja valmistaminen on aikaa vievää ja voi vaatia erikoisosaamista. Materiaaleihin liittyvä tuki on onnistuneiden CLIL-ohjelmien edellytys. Tuki voi tarkoittaa materiaalien valmistamista, materiaalipankkien perustamista, materiaalien jakamisen tukemista tai opettajien kouluttamista materiaalien valmistuksessa. Tarvitaan tietoa pros…
Percepción del alumnado sobre el uso del método AICLE en Educación Física: estudio de caso (Students’ perception of the use of CLIL method in Physica…
2017
El Aprendizaje Integrado de Contenidos y Lengua Extranjera (AICLE) está siendo cada vez más extendido e investigado en el panorama educativo español. Dada la importancia de la motivación y la predisposición del alumnado para que el proceso de enseñanza-aprendizaje sea efectivo, este estudio de caso analiza la percepción de un grupo de secundaria durante la aplicación del método AICLE en la asignatura de Educación Física. Se optó por un enfoque metodológico cualitativo apoyado en la triangulación de diarios de reflexión del alumnado, registro anecdótico del profesor-investigador y un focus group. Los resultados afianzan el actual estado de la cuestión, desvelando cinco categorías sobre las q…
Knowledge ecology for conceptual growth:Teachers as active agents in developing a PluriLiteracies approach to Teaching for Learning (PTL)
2017
This article explores how a group of educators and researchers enacted an inclusive process of conceptual growth involving teachers and teacher educators as active agents, knowledge builders and meaning-makers in the development of a Pluriliteracies approach to Teaching for Learning (PTL). The evolution of a working model based on five emergent principles, foregrounded the need for stakeholders across different languages, cultures and disciplines, to work together from the start so that learning spaces were created where teacher development went alongside researcher development, and theorizing was not only inclusive of praxis but validated by it. A growth cycle emerged using theories of pra…
Nursing students' professional oral English communication skills in simulated data
2017
1990-luvun alussa Suomen lainsäädäntö mahdollisti opetuksen vieraalla kielellä (CLIL – Content and Language Integrated Learning). Tässä tutkimuksessa tarkastellaan englanninkielipainotteisessa sisätauti-kirurgisessa koulutusohjelmassa opiskelleiden sairaanhoidon opiskelijoiden ammatillista suullista englannin kielen taitoa. Koulutus aloitettiin vuonna 1994. Tutkimus pyrkii kuvaamaan miten ammatillisesti opiskelijat viestivät potilaiden kanssa simuloiduissa työnäytteissä. Lisäksi tavoitteena on tarkastella, mikä rooli opiskelijoiden yleisellä englannin kielen taidolla oli vietintäprosessissa. Tutkimuksen aineisto kerättiin näyttökokeella, joka laadittiin yhteistyössä koulutusohjelmassa opett…

COMPREHENSIVE TEACHER’S PROFESSIONALISM FOR CONTENT AND LANGUAGE INTEGRATED PROVISION

T opicality of the problem is determined by several factors as well as the amendments on the Education Law and the General Education Law, which provide for a gradual transition to the acquisition of general secondary education in Latvian only, educational content reform and teachers experience to work in an ethnically and linguistically heterogeneous environment.

Using English as the Language of Science
2021
This article presents the development and testing of a content-based video exchange model as a motivating means to introduce lower secondary English learners to English as the language of science. The central goal was that students reach the required curricular content knowledge despite learning some of the content in a foreign language. The model was tested in German seventh-grade classes (n = 133), in which the students communicated with U.S. eighth-graders on the topic of ecology. Following field trips to a forest and a desert ecosystem, students presented and compared biotic and abiotic data in videos. The German students’ content knowledge and their motivation were assessed in a pretes…
Kulttuurienvälisen tietoisuuden ja kieliasenteiden kehittyminen CLIL-opetuksessa
2018
CLIL (Content and Language Integrated Learning) has been claimed to create a positive attitude towards languages and language learning in general and to raise intercultural awareness. The studies on the topics have however remained scarce. This study examines the issue from former pupils’ perspective. The 24 participants, who received English-medium CLIL during their comprehensive school in the 1990s, were interviewed in-depth and the data were analysed qualitatively. Most participants felt that CLIL had had a very positive effect on their attitudes towards English. However, many considered that CLIL had partly been detrimental to their attitudes towards and learning of other languages. The…
