New Postgraduate Course: Expert in CLIL – Virtual Learning

Posted on

After one hard year of work, I’m pleased to announce that I’ll be co-directing a new postgraduate course: Expert in Content and Language Integrated Learning. This academic programme is focused on improving teachers’ profiles to cope with bilingual education contexts by using the CLIL pedagogical approach. The Course is on-line with 3 optional face-to-face sessions which will take place on Campus. It will run from February to June, and it is composed by 24 ECTS. Participants will take three compulsory subjects to establish the fundamentals of the teaching-learning process using CLIL, and they will have the chance to choose 3 optional subjects, which deal with topics such as Social Sciences, Arts, Science, Using Stories, Classroom Management, or Coordinating a Bilingual Project (this last subject will have a face-to-face module which will take place in Madrid).

Offering this postgraduate course is not a matter of chance, our University College has been training teachers to offer Bilingual Degrees for 10 years now, and I have been coordinating the methodological training of teachers from 2008. Also, lecturers participating in the Expert Teaching Staff are well experienced in the implementation of CLIL in their classrooms, and many of them are involved in research projects which revolve around bilingual education and CLIL.

 If you are interested in obtaining more information about this Postgraduate Course, you can visit our webpage (information in English will be available soon), and/or contact me via email: raquel.fernandez@cardenalcisneros. Thank you all in advance for spreading the word.

Cardenal Cisneros Bilingual Campus (3rd edition)

Posted on

Dear all,

A Summer course on CLIL
A Summer course on CLIL

I’m enclosing information about the 3rd Cardenal Cisneros Bilingual Campus to be held from 1st to 4th July, 2013.  It’s been a pleasure for me to launch the first and second editions, and this time prof. Dr. Josué Llull and prof. Matthew Johnson are in charge of this great new edition, together with the publishing house Edelvives.

The Campus is an ideal opportunity to refresh your teaching and perfect your English without moving from Spain. It is a 4-day course with CLIL-specific training provided by 10 different CLIL experts and trainers. It offers integral training on Content, Cognition, Communication and Culture, with an emphasis on a cross-curricular approach. As a novelty, this year we offer a special social and cultural programme in the afternoons. As a guest speaker, we are proud to welcome Dr. Linda Gerena, from the City University of New Work.

This is also a great opportunity to show the new logo of our University College, which has been presented to celebrate its 40-year anniversary (available in the leaflet attached).
