Teaching Other Subjects Through English (Resource Books for Teachers)
Content and Language Integrated Learning (CLIL) has attracted great interest in recent years, especially in Europe but increasingly more widely in the world. This is undoubtedly linked to the expansion of subject teaching in English, whether in state pilot experimental schools, universities, or international schools. This in its turn rides on the back of the tendency for parents to want their children to make an earlier start in learning English.
At the end of September, 2011,a new "E-Lab" project strted on English Club TV, in which professional teachers of English from leading language schools help an international group of students improve their English.
Presents theoretical, empirical, and practical bases for implementing multilingual education programmes to prepare students for a multilingual world. The book addresses issues relevant to multilingual acquisition, the integration of content instruction in multilingual programmes, teacher education, and the role of culture in multilingual schools. It also presents case studies of multilingual schools in different parts of the world.
This book—written by a long-time mathematics teacher—explains why mathematics education is commonly listed as the number one concern of parents and teachers in K-12 schools and provides guidance for addressing the issue.
