Clil4U when CALL (Computer Assisted Language Learning) meets CLIL

 Description

The webinar will have focus on free online CLIL resources that are suitable for scaffolding. During the webinar the participants will experience how to link texts word by word to online dictionaries in +100 languages. The webinar will also seek to present the outcomes of the Clil4U project:

- A collection of materials and commented links to resources relevant for CLIL in European languages: http://languages.dk/databank/

-48 scenarios complete with materials covering primary schools and vocational colleges. Each scenario describes a module with advice on method and on how to share the tasks between teachers in a CLIL team, together with ready to use materials. For the primary schools the scenarios are based on the national curricula and cover subjects like maths and art as well as thematic projects covering several subjects. Two of these deal with life and traditions in two other countries (DK/IT/ES), so pupils learn phrases, songs, games etc. from these countries. For vocational colleges the scenarios cover content from electrical regulations, first aid, human physics, medical subjects, etc..
