The Project

The cornerstone of the project is as follows:

  •  observing the impact of the various applications of CLIL methodology:
  •  the acquisition of general skills, disciplinary knowledge and competences,
  •  the acquisition in particular of creative and intercultural skills
  •  the development of plurilingualism and multilingualism in the professional field.

 

The basic idea is:

 to determine whether a CLIL project confers added value on the quality of learning:

  •  knowledge
  • disciplinary competences
  • relational and socio-affective skills,
  • thinking skills (how to develop and improve them)
  • learning skills (do students learn better and more?)

 

We therefore propose to start  short training  sessions for teachers with a view to:
  • comparing and developing ways of implementing and sharing CLIL projects and
  • experiences in the schools of the participant countries,
  • planning CLIL pathways (by using online resources) in some disciplines to be chosen
  • from the field of science and technology and from the arts and humanities, in collaboration with the different partners involved
  • designing and implementing monitoring and evaluation tools
  •  producing learning units through the methods of cooperative learning, using the  available ICT tools
  •  testing in class the material produced, using the monitoring devices
  •  comparing and disseminating the results through the social web

 

This evaluation process and the outputs would be thus organized:

  • Monitoring and evaluating the process and the end- results of the project through:
  • The collection and systematic organization of the learning units,
  • The collection and systematic organization of the assessment tests,
  • The comparative analysis of the test results
  • The implementation of an online  data base of all the materials.
  • Research starting from the analysis of the needs:
  • Validation of a teaching-learning method (CLIL),
  • Ratio expected results/achievements.
