Project brings English to life through motivating topics within a structured learning environment.It provides a clearly-structured, supportive framework of grammar with the flexibility to allow students to make their own discoveries. Language is presented in stimulating, realistic contexts. A high profile is given to skills development from the start of the course. Cross-curricular project work encourages students to communicate in English about their own lives and experiences. The strong cultural element helps students to establish a connection between language and life. Students are encouraged to learn about life in Britain and other English-speaking countries, as well as to explore differences and draw comparisons with their own cultures.
The term Content-and-Language-Integrated-Learning (CLIL) refers to educational settings where a language other than the students’ mother tongue is used as medium of instruction. While in principle, of course, any second or foreign language can become the object of CLIL, in this study, as well as in educational reality, English is the language which dominates the scene, be it as a foreign language in Europe and many parts of Asia, or as a second language in North America but also parts of Africa and Asia.
