DESCRIPTION
The presence of foreign languages in current education is an indisputable fact supported by the impulse of the plurilingual education as a response to the European, national and regional guidelines. The acquisition of linguistic competence in a foreign language used as a medium of instruction and not as a particular area of study is one of the most important educational proposal of the last century, considered a basic instrumental learning. Content and Language Integrated Learning (CLIL) is a really communicative methodology that allows the combination of language teaching and learning objectives with those in other curricular areas where both are significantly reinforced. In this context, it is essential that the initial teachers training provide future teachers the opportunity to expand and consolidate their knowledge of the English language as well as know CLIL methodology and provide the appropriate teaching resources for the teaching practice. Knowledge of theoretical principles (linguistic, legislative and educational) of this methodology, analysis and experimentation of classroom resources as well as the development and exposure of a CLIL didactic unit are three of the main objectives of this subject.
Course will consist of 60hrs of in class work and 90 hrs of independent work outside the classroom.
