1. CLIL Definition-D.Marsh
“Situations where subjects, or parts of subjects, are taught through
a foreign language with dual-focussed aims, namely the learning of
content, and the simultaneous learning of a foreign language”,
1994.
“Any activity in which a foreign language is used as a tool in the
learning of a non-language subjects in which both language and the
subject have a joint role”, 2002.
CLIL Definition-D.Coyle
“CLIL is dynamic, a flexible concept where topics and subjectsforeign language and non-language subject/s – are integrated in
some kind of mutually beneficial way so as to provide valueadded to educational outcomes for the widest possible range of
learners”

2. My definition
CLIL is an intellectual-lexical processing which use motivation,
effective tasks, flexibility, innovation and cooperation to real acquire
the culture.
It means "learning and acquisition of contents" through other
languages, integrated with hi-tech languages! It’s task-based and
learning-by-doing-based, it stimulates in the meantime the whole
brain and mental connections, it activates complete and long-term
comprehension by listening/speaking/reading/writing/doing and it is
the best way to involve students in active learning, to learn to/for
learn, without boring!

3. What weighs more?

knowledge, skills, and
understanding
Cognition:
critical thinking skills to
solve problems and to
reflect to getting better
Culture, community and

together

learning, suitable for all students
