Breve descripción de contenidos (Según memoria de verificación del Máster)

This 10 ECTS* course intends to deliver students those contents and learning experiences that will strengthen their competencies as future professionals of bilingual education. In that process, students will be guided and monitored by the professors of the course in collaboration with the teachers from the bilingual schools in which the practices (in-service training) will take place.

The seminar  ̳Prácticas‘ (in-service learning) (2 ECTS) is aimed at increasing student‘s cognitive and metacognitive knowledge on competencies-based learning and bilingual education, in order to master the design, implementation and evaluation of effective CLIL bilingual lessons in formal educational settings.

The seminar Bilingual Education (2 ECTS) will examine current mainstream educational practices of teaching non-linguistic subjects through L2 in wider international contexts and in the specific context of Spain. This seminar is divided into two major blocks: a) Types of bilingual education and b) Introduction to CLIL programmes. The first block will involve discussions on evidence for the potential benefits and limitations and aims to provide insights into different modalities of bilingual practices. The second component will provide a more detailed examination of national and regional practices, guidelines and legislation. Additionally, a series of methodological principles will be discussed along with contextualised examples with a view to facilitating the selection and/or creation of appropriate
materials and activities for the bilingual class.

The seminar Bilingual Education Practice: CLIL in practice (1 ECTS) follows the seminar Bilingual Education Theory (2 ECTS) and focuses on some specific aspects of how to teach content subjects in English following CLIL methodology. The seminar is divided into three parts, which coincide with three key factors in the CLIL classroom: the syllabus, classroom management and the role of the teacher.
