    This document discusses Content and Language Integrated Learning (CLIL), an educational approach where students learn academic content through two languages. It emphasizes that learning by doing through active participation is more effective than passive learning. Art teachers at Endicott College are learning how to integrate CLIL approaches into their teaching styles by participating in workshops where they take turns being students and teachers, experiencing different teaching methods, activities, and classroom management techniques. The teachers are sharing ideas and getting new perspectives from over a dozen combined solutions to the same teaching proposals.

    INTEGRATING LANGUAGE AND CONTENT LEARNING IN BILINGUAL SCHOOLS - CLIL

    Endicott College, Beverly - Massachussets

    What is CLIL? Content and Language Integrated Learning. In other words: Students learning different content subjects through two languages.

    TEACHING STYLES, METHODS AND STRATEGIES


    What the learner does is more important than what the teacher does . Geoff Petty

    First of all, this means: LEARNING BY DOING

    Learning by doing creates the foundation of learning. Decide , Do, Reflectand Get conclusions is more effective that traditional methods, as the Geoff Pettys learning Pyramid shows. It is good to begin doing (ACTIVE LEARNING), and, afterwards, thanks to the theory (PASSIVE LEARNING), the contents will be consolidated and we will be in the way to amplify contents.Besides, it is more rewarding not only for students, but for teachers too.
    Art classes are not going to be less. Therefore, art teachers are learning by doing. So, now we are going to be the students, AGAIN.

    Secondly, BEGIN CLASSES. It is essential to get the students involved within the first three minutes of the lesson. There are many ways to do it, even before the bell rings (music, posters, objects hanged, an anecdote, a challenging question, a funny story, a magic trick ). If it is the first time, it is a good idea to present ourselves. A ball could be used or
    Art teachers madeour students presentations in two ways:

    An individual visual presentation:

    Besides, CLASSROOM MANAGEMENT can be the key to the success of a course. It includes grouping and seating, activities, authority, critical moments, tools and techniques It is very important the way a teacher approaches to students (the explainer, the involver, the enabler ).
    As far as I am concerned, everything during these two weeks has been extremely interesting. I have learned new activities, new resources, new materials (How many they have, my goodness!), new techniques, new vocabulary They all will be reflected from now on in the blog. Activities, techniques and vocabulary of our group of teaches as students will be developed there, not only the final art but their making off as well . Last, but not least, it is being wonderful to share workshops with our American teachers and with other colleagues from Madrid. In the end, we are getting up to twelve different solutions for the same proposal. Therefore, our learning is being multiplied by 12. I hope the two remaining weeks will be as intense and rewarding for us as the previous one s. In fact, I am sure it will be this way.
