CLIL uses the target language for a curricular purpose, so that the language becomes a means to an end rather than an end in itself. In other words, the knowledge of the language becomes the means of learning other subject content. Planning and designing a CLIL curriculum —integrating language-related and content-related goals and outcomes— is one of the most difficult aspects for a teacher enrolling on a CLIL project. An understanding of the core features of CLIL, and how these are related to best practices in education, is instrumental in the CLIL approach, as are building inclusive and constructive relationships with students and other members of the educational community.
The main focus of this subject, which complements the subject ‘What’s CLIL?’ and is directly connected to the subject ‘Evaluation and assessment’, is to teach students how to plan and design curricula and syllabuses in content and language integrated learning environments. Using Bloom’s Taxonomy as a starting point, students will deal with the principles and practice of syllabus design for courses taught in a foreign or additional language by analysing such topics as CLIL fundamentals, setting objectives, selecting content, lesson planning, scaffolding and assessment. The subject will also consider how CLIL best fits into the total class and school curriculum through task-based and project-based curricula. By means of the analysis of classroom experience (videos, real CLIL units, materials...), students will be shown 1) how tasks and projects should be planned within the third level of curriculum planning; and 2) how tasks and projects can help develop language competence as well as content knowledge through reading, interpreting, producing, analysing and creating.
The different tasks and activities programmed during the semester have been developed with the goal of adapting the learning process to the different capabilities, necessities and interests of the students.
The activities included in the subject are:
These activities are combined with the following aspects:
The hours dedicated to each activity are detailed as follows:
Assignments | HOURS | % PRESENCIAL |
---|---|---|
Attendance to virtual classes | 15 hours | 100% |
Audiovisual resources | 6 hours | 0 |
Basic material study | 50 hours | 0 |
Additional resources readings | 25 hours | 0 |
Task and practice cases and self-evaluation test | 29 hours | 0 |
Tutoring | 16 hours | 30% |
Collaborative work | 7 hours | 0 |
Final exam | 2 hours | 100% |
Total | 150 hours | - |
You can personalize your study plan choosing the type of activity that best matches your profile. The tutor will advise you and help you elaborate your study plan. S/he will always be available to guide throughout the course.
The section Basic Bibliography is essential for the course. If any document (reading, article,…) is not available in the virtual classroom, you will have to find it by other means: UNIR bookshop, virtual library…
The evaluation system is based on the following numerical chart:
0 - 4, 9 | Suspenso | (SS) |
5,0 - 6,9 | Aprobado | (AP) |
7,0 - 8,9 | Notable | (NT) |
9,0 - 10 | Sobresaliente | (SB) |
The grade is made up of two components:
Final exam (60%). At the end of the semester, you need to assist a compulsory final exam either in presence- based or online modality. You need to pass the final exam so the grade obtained from the assignments (continuous assessment) is summed up to the final grade of the subject.
Continuous assessment (40%): this type of assessment will be measured through the different assignments you need to complete during the course:
Remember that you can check the points (value) of each assignment in the weekly program.
Take into account that the sum of the grades of the assignments included in the continuous assessment is 6 points. You can do as many as you want to until a maximum grade of 4 points (which is the maximum grade you will be obtaining in the continuous assessment)In the weekly program, you can find the grade of each assignment.

Studying online means you can organize your study as you wish, as long as you meet the due dates of the different assignments (activities, tasks and tests). In order to help you, we propose the following steps:
In the virtual classroom of Lo que necesitas saber antes de empezar (All you need to know before starting) you will always find available information on the structure of the units and information on their sections
Remember that in Lo que necesitas saber antes de empezar (All you need to know before starting) you can check how the different tools of the virtual classroom work: email, forum, online classes, sending the tasks, etc.
Please, take into account the following tips…
