A Deeper Learning Companion for CLIL

Offers ready-made, theory-driven deeper-learning materials across subjects to show how to put a pluriliteracies approach into practice.

Designed as a follow-up to Beyond CLIL, this volume offers step-by-step instruction for designing and implementing highly innovative tasks and materials for pluriliteracies development. It contains annotated deeper learning case studies across subjects, to help practitioners explore the potential of deeper learning inside their own classrooms.If education is to prepare learners for lifelong learning, there needs to be a shift towards deeper learning: a focus on transferable knowledge and problem-solving skills alongside the development of a positive or growth mind-set. Deeper learning is inextricably linked with CLIL (Content and Language Integrated Learning) – a revolutionary teaching approach where students study subjects in a different language. Designed as a companion to the influential volume Beyond CLIL, this highly practical book offers step-by-step instruction for designing and implementing innovative tasks and materials for pluriliteracies development. It contains annotated case studies of deeper learning lesson plans across a wide range of school subjects, using an innovative and proven template, to help teachers explore the potential of deeper learning inside their own classrooms. Theoretically grounded, this book offers a roadmap for schools, ranging from exploratory first steps, to transdisciplinary projects, to whole school moves for curriculum development and transformative pedagogies.
