• Are you interested in CLIL (Content and Language Integrated Learning)?
• Are you planning to teach your subject in a foreign language?
• Are you looking for a European training course which can answer your needs?

e-CLILT (e-based Content and Language Integrated Learning Training) aims at developing an innovative e-training in CLIL.

The main outcome of the project is a blended trans-national model training course (on-line and face-to-face) adaptable to different countries for CLIL teacher trainers, and pre-service and in-service secondary school subject teachers.

The course, therefore, tackles both the absence of qualified trainers, who can promote an advanced CLIL approach and a successful multilingualism, and the shortage of appropriately skilled teachers in Content and Language Integrated Learning provision.

Students are undoubtedly the other group of beneficiaries. The project has in fact a social and cultural goal which is to reinforce intercultural dialogue encouraging understanding, acceptance and respect. Learning foreign languages in addition to the mother tongue is a way of eliminating cultural prejudices and intolerance and learners can benefit from a collaborative methodology and a qualified group of teachers willing to teach various subjects in foreign languages.

The main pedagogical and didactical methodologies used in the e-CLILT training course has a common basis in developing life-long learning skills. CLIL is successful if the activities done are learner-oriented applying principles of co-operative learning, and the partnership is planning to make use of this methodology both in face to face training sessions and in the self-contained collaborative learning platform.
