CLIL IN TEDESCO NELLA SCUOLA ITALIANA: PROFILO DELL'APPRENDENTE E RUOLO DEL DOCENTE / CLIL in German in Italian secondary school: profile of the learner and role of the teacher.CATTANEO, GIULIA 21 July 2020 (has links)
La tesi tratta l’approccio didattico CLIL (Content and Language Integrated Learning), il quale rappresenta la metodologia che meglio favorisce lo sviluppo del plurilinguismo in tutti i Paesi europei. In particolare, viene presentata una analisi dell’insegnamento CLIL come proposta didattica incentrata sulla figura dell’apprendente, e viene delineato il profilo del docente, che deve essere a conoscenza delle abilità, difficoltà ed esigenze dei propri allievi per poter pianificare percorsi CLIL efficaci. A una analisi del quadro teorico di riferimento, delle metodologie didattiche che favoriscono la partecipazione attiva dell’apprendente all’intervento didattico (il lavoro di gruppo è da preferire, ad esempio, alla lezione frontale) e degli strumenti di supporto all’apprendimento integrato, segue una focalizzazione sulla presenza di percorsi didattici CLIL in lingua tedesca nelle scuole secondarie di secondo grado italiane. Vengono poi presentati gli obiettivi e le modalità di svolgimento che hanno caratterizzato un’indagine empirica condotta presso alcuni licei lombardi la cui offerta formativa prevede il CLIL in tedesco. I dati raccolti sono stati analizzati, commentati e confrontati con la teoria di riferimento, e ciò ha permesso di far emergere quali sono le modalità di insegnamento CLIL in tedesco più efficaci in quanto meglio coinvolgono il profilo dell’apprendente e rispondono alle sue esigenze. Il lavoro rappresenta un contributo ai docenti che si apprestano alla pianificazione di percorsi didattici CLIL in lingua tedesca nella scuola italiana. / This thesis examines the didactic approach CLIL (Content and Language Integrated Learning), which is the methodology that best supports the development of multilingualism in all European countries. In particular, the thesis presents an analysis of CLIL teaching as a didactic proposal, focused on the learner, and outlines the profile of the teacher, who must be aware of the skills, difficulties and needs of their students in order to plan effective CLIL courses. In addition to an analysis of the theoretical framework of reference, of the teaching methodologies that support the active participation of the learner in the teaching intervention (group work is preferable, for example, to frontal lessons) and of the tools to support integrated learning , there will be a focus on the presence of CLIL didactic courses in the German language in Italian secondary schools. The thesis will then describe the objectives and methods of performance that characterized an empirical investigation carried out at some secondary schools in Lombardy where CLIL in German is part of the curriculum. The collected data are analyzed, commented on and measured against the theoretical framework of reference, and this makes it possible to highlight which are the most effective CLIL teaching methods in German, i.e. those which best involve the learner's profile and meet their needs.
This work represents a resource for teachers who are preparing to plan CLIL didactic courses in German in Italian schools.

Assessment of subject-specific task performance of bilingual geography learners: Analysing aspects of subject-specific written discourseCoetzee-Lachmann, Debbie 04 March 2009 (has links)
Bilingualer Sachfachunterricht genießt in Deutschland relativ großes Ansehen als Unterrichtskonzept zur Entwicklung allgemeiner Kompetenzen in der Fremdsprache. Der Einfluss, den diese Unterrichtsform auf den Aufbau fachsprachlicher Kompetenzen hat, ist jedoch bislang kaum analysiert worden. Dies gilt insbesondere für die Fähigkeit, sprachlich angemessene und zusammenhängende Texte über Fachinhalte zu verfassen. Ziel der Studie war es, die fachbezogene schriftliche Diskurskompetenz bilingual unterrichteter Lerner zu erheben und zu bewerten. Als Grundlage dienten schriftliche Antworttexte von 84 bilingualen Lernern am Ende der Klasse 10, die in einem Geographiekompetenztest an vier niedersächsischen Gymnasien elizitiert und anhand von eigens dafür entwickelten holistischen und analytischen Verfahren bewertet wurden. Das zentrale Konstrukt fachbezogene schriftliche Diskurskompetenz wurde auf der Grundlage der Systemisch-Funktionalen Linguistik (Halliday 1978; Halliday & Martin 1993) definiert. Bei der Bewertung wurde mit Hilfe von unterschiedlichen Skalen zwischen fachsprachlicher Angemessenheit und Korrektheit einerseits, und inhaltlicher Vollständigkeit und Richtigkeit andererseits unterschieden. Die Ergebnisse der Studie zeigen, dass die schriftlichen Texte der bilingualen Lerner zwar eine angemessene Struktur und textuelle Verknüpfungen haben, dabei allerdings deutliche Mängel bezüglich der Verwendung des Fachregisters, der Vollständigkeit sowie der Korrektheit der fachlichen Inhalte aufweisen. Dies zeigt wie notwendig es ist, in schulischen Zusammenhängen die Konventionen der fachlichen Diskursgemeinschaft explizit zu machen und auf dieser Grundlage die Versprachlichung von Fachinhalten in ihrer Spezifik stärker in den Vordergrund zu rücken.

Learning a New Language in a New LanguageArtukovic, Valerija, Eriksson, Emma January 2017 (has links)
Swedish school today is a mixture of children who come from different countries and speak different languages. Due to conflicts and war raging in various parts of the world, the refugee stream of people seeking asylum in Sweden has put much pressure on the schools around the country. Studies show that immigrant children fall behind in the education and that students whose first language is not Swedish do not reach the knowledge requirements and goals for English to the same degree of success as other groups of students. The aim for this thesis was to investigate what teachers in a K-3 English classrooms in Sweden do to support immigrant students, and what can be found in previous research to explain such poor performance. The aim was also to explore what methods teachers report using and how these methods are connected to Lgr11 and previous research. The use of Swedish instead of the target language when teaching English seems to be dominating in the schools. Since research found shows that children tend to use their first language when learning additional languages, the use of Swedish becomes demanding and confusing for the immigrant students: they end up having to learn a new language in a new language.

Umíme se učit s CLIL? Akční výzkum při zavádění inovativního přístupu k výuce angličtiny. / Are We Able to Learn by CLIL? Action Resarch During Its Implemention.Vlčková, Mária January 2018 (has links)
A b s t r a c t: CLIL is an innovative approach how to improve foreign language teaching. Thanks to the globalization, language education became one of the main priorities in most of the states, European countries, especially. However, foreign language education has been intensively discussed over the past two decades, there are still some important questions to answer. What is the best time to start with foreign language teaching? Which methods shall we use? When shall we start with the intensive foreign language teaching? Third grade, second grade or even earlier? I suggest CLIL and, particularly, language showers, could be a suitable solution how to prepare children for the future foreign language teaching. The main goal of my thesis is to find what kind of CLIL activities are suitable for the second grade where I actually teach. More specifically, I will carry out action research which will be based on videorecordings of three CLIL lessons. I will also try to analyse my linguistic and didactic mistakes. The analysis should help me to find solutions which will improve my CLIL teaching. Within the thesis, I will also try to diagnosticate my own pedagogical type which will help me to recognize the characteristics which will play important role during the reflective process of my CLIL teaching. The aim of...

La lingua dell'insegnante: Un modello per l'insegnamento e per l'apprendimento. Fondamenti metodologici dell'insegnamento CLIL. / DIE SPRACHE DER LEHRPERSON: EIN LEHR-LERN-MODELL METHODISCHE GRUNDLAGEN DES BILINGUALEN SACHFACHUNTERRICHTS / The language of the teacher: A model for teaching and learning. Methodological principles of CLIL.ZANIN, RENATA 23 March 2015 (has links)
L’insegnamento disciplinare in una lingua straniera (Content and Language Integrated Learning - CLIL) richiede al docente DNL (discipline non linguistiche) una particolare attenzione alla lingua comune, alla lingua della disciplina, ma soprattutto alle frasi fatte, ai frasemi, alle parole sintagmatiche e alle espressioni multiparola (Masini 2009). La categoria degli atti linguistici attenti alla lingua (Leisen 2010) può essere definita in relazione alla lingua franca, caratterizzata da un minor uso di parole sintagmatiche, di espressioni multiparola, di frasi idiomatiche (Aguado 2002b) come anche da una minore attenzione alle relative forme prosodiche. Se da un lato sembra in questo modo definito uno degli obiettivi principali della formazione linguistica degli insegnanti DNL (discipline non linguistiche), dall’altro devono essere analizzate e verificate le vie che permettano il raggiungimento di tale obiettivo. Il lavoro di ricerca svolto traccia un modello di insegnamento e di apprendimento basato proprio sulle espressioni multiparola e sulla loro espressione prosodica. Tre i filoni scientifici alla base del modello: il "competition model" (Bates 1999), la "idiomatisch geprägte Sprache" e la "Anschließbarkeit" (Feilke 1994, 1996) e la lettura silente (Perrone-Bertolotti et al. 2013). Da essi nasce l’indicazione della "prosodische Prägung" di grande importanza per il modello di insegnamento e apprendimento proposto che trova nelle fonti letterarie tedesche testi eccellenti per una didattica interdisciplinare, che sappia valorizzare il ruolo del docente di lingua straniera nel suo apporto all’apprendimento della lingua tedesca nella classe CLIL. / Teaching a CLIL-class (Content and Language Integrated Learning) is a big challenge for teachers of non-linguistic disciplines (NLD), as they need to pay particular attention not only to the specialized language but also to the everyday language, in particular to chunks and formulaic sequences. The discourse structure necessary for a ‘good’ Clil lesson contrasts with the lingua franca, which is characterized by a reduced use of chunks and formulaic sequences (Aguado 2002, Wray 2002) and by a reduced attention for prosodic features. Teacher training on Content Language Integrated Learning needs therefore to raise and to foster language awareness of discipline teachers. The research presented in this work proposes a model for teaching and learning in CLIL-classes, which is based on chunks, formulaic sequences and their prosodic features. The scientific foundations of this model are the competition model (Bates 1999), the "idiomatisch geprägte Sprache" as well as the "Anschließbarkeit" (Feilke 1994, 1996) and the silent reading (Perrone-Bertolotti et al. 2013). The central point of the model for teaching and learning is the "prosodische Prägung", which can be successfully exercised and learned with poems from the great German literature giving new value to the role of the foreign language teacher in supporting the discipline teachers in CLIL-classes.

Vennovy diagramy - výuka na střední škole metodou CLIL / Venn diagrams - Teaching Mathematics using the CLIL method for upper secondary pupilsVojířová, Barbora January 2019 (has links)
This thesis focuses on the teaching of mathematics using the CLIL method. The topic is Venn diagrams and learning how to solve problems using these diagrams. The language chosen for the CLIL method is English. First, the CLIL method is described, and later I introduce sets and Venn diagrams. The aim of the thesis is to prepare and implement two lessons using the CLIL method in English, and two lessons in Czech, followed by preparing a test in both languages for a third lesson. The thesis was realized by conducting a teaching experiment, which took place in two classes of multi- year grammar school (in the Quintas - the first year of secondary school). I have compiled and tested four worksheets - two with Czech tasks, two with English tasks, a presentation for the lesson using the CLIL method, and tests for both language versions. Both the tasks and solutions are part of the thesis. Before the preparation of the thesis, the following two research questions were identified: 1. What needs to be taken into consideration when preparing for the Venn diagrams lesson using the CLIL method, and what needs to be added to this lesson compared to the Czech lesson? 2. At what success rate will pupils learn using the CLIL method in English and pupils using Czech, with regard to equation building and answers to...

Room for Improvement? : A comparative study of Swedish learners’ free written production in English in the foreign language classroom and in immersion educationKjellén Simes, Marika January 2008 (has links)
<p>The present study examines the effects of immersion education on the English of two groups of advanced Swedish learners at upper secondary school. In immersion education, or CLIL, subject content is taught through a second language as a means of enhancing target language competence. In this study, language proficiency was measured in terms of the ratio of low frequency vocabulary (LFV) and the ratio of motivated tense shift (MTSh) in the learners’ free written production in English. An additional aim was to see whether the results were related to the students’ motivation as reported in a questionnaire.</p><p>This longitudinal study was based on three sets of narratives, written by 86 students, half of them enrolled at the International Baccalaureate Diploma Programme (IB) where English is the medium of instruction, and the other half at national programmes (NP), where English is studied as a foreign language. At the outset, the IB and NP groups had similar results on a general diagnostic test, which was the basis for the formation of three subgroups: I, II and III, with above average, average and below average scores respectively. Mean LFV and MTSh ratios as well as different kinds of motivation were compared, both overall and in the subgroups.</p><p>The IB students overall, and those in subgroup III in particular, showed the best results. As to the overall results, the IB students used significantly higher mean ratios of LFV and MTSh than the NP students in the final set of compositions. There were also a number of motivational factors that were stronger in the IB students.</p><p>As to the subgroups, the most interesting results were found in subgroups I and III. While the IB students in subgroup I had high mean ratios already in the first composition, and retained them over time, their use of MTSh tended to grow subtler. The NP students had lower mean results initially, and while their mean MTSh ratio increased and ended up on a level similar to that of the IB students, their mean LFV ratio remained low.</p><p>In subgroup III the results of the IB and NP students diverged over time. While the IB students progressed as reflected in their mean LFV and MTSh ratios, the NP students tended to regress. The difference in mean LFV ratios was statistically significant. The IB students were also better motivated than their NP peers. In all, this study suggests that immersion education has positive target language effects, especially on less proficient but motivated students.</p>

Svenska i engelskspråkig skolmiljö : Ämnesrelaterat språkbruk i två gymnasieklasser / Swedish in an English-language School Environment : Subject-based Language Use in Two Upper Secondary ClassesLim Falk, Maria January 2008 (has links)
The aim of this thesis is to determine how English-language teaching in Sweden influences the subject-based communicative competence and language development in Swedish of upper secondary students. The focus is thus on the students’ mother tongue, i.e. the language which gets limited in the teaching practice within so-called content- and language-integrated learning (CLIL). Data was primarily collected by participatory observation in two science program classes, one taught in English and one in Swedish, during their three years in upper secondary school. Additional data was collected through interviews, questionnaires, audio taping of classroom interaction and writing tasks. This created conditions for a comprehensive and nuanced description and interpretation of the linguistic behaviour of teachers and students in the CLIL practice, as well as of the experiences and perceptions they report. Studies were carried out on classroom practice, student texts, and teacher and student experiences of CLIL instruction. These were linked to activity analysis, systemic-functional linguistics and ethnography of communication, i.e. research areas that emphasise the interplay between language, communication and social situation. The general conclusions are: (1) CLIL students use less relevant subject-based language in speech and writing than do control students. This holds for all subjects except Swedish, where both CLIL and control students share linguistic conditions; (2) Swedish is a prerequisite for the students’ own active, subject-based participation in classroom interaction. There is almost no interaction when the language of instruction is English; (3) English is an obstacle, and is also considered as such. The students avoid using English, and the teachers consistently use code-switching strategies in response to the policy that “language should not be an obstacle”. The results suggest that the CLIL environment is less conducive to learning, given current learning theories that focus on active participation. In the already teacher-dominated classroom, the linguistic and interactional demands that come with CLIL teaching seem to add to the challenge of assimilating advanced subject instruction.

Aprenentatge integrat de continguts d'educació física i llengua anglesa: Educació física al cicle superior de primària / Physical education ant English integrated learning: PE in CLIL in 5th grade of Primmary SchoolCoral i Mateu, Josep 25 April 2012 (has links)
Tesi doctoral, Universitat de Barcelona. Facultat de Formació del Professorat, 2012 / The present dissertation is concerned with the Content and Language Integrated Learning (CLIL) approach as it is applied to Physical Education (PE). CLIL is a teaching approach which uses foreign language as a tool to enhance the subject learning process.
The PE-in-CLIL programme is based on Coyle’s 4Cs framework (Coyle 2006, 2007 and Coyle, Hood and Marsh 2010). PE-in-CLIL should be understood as a holistic approach that utilises a basic, yet essential principle of learning; that is, we learn by doing. It is based on tasks wherein students are being pushed to go further and are given the support to do so (Gibbons 2009). It fosters content, language, cognition and cultural awareness. Although PE is a popular subject in CLIL, very little research has been published about it.
The question of the research is: how does a Physical Education and Language Integrated programme significantly improve children’s oracy in their 5th primary year? Four aims are established. The first aim is to identify the features of Physical Education tasks that improve integrated learning. The second is to identify the specific teaching strategies that improve oral communication. The third is to check that meaningful improvements occur in both oral comprehension and oral interaction. Finally, the fourth aim of this study is to identify the Physical Education and English integrated tasks which appeal most to students.
Action Research is used because it solves problems in a realistic way based on the correlation between teachers and professional academics. The PE-in-CLIL Action Research project tries to mesh the curriculum with the reality of school life. It changes the current state of things using systematic reflection. The praxis of the research involves theorizing about practical problems in particular situations and identifying which of these practical theories are widely applicable. PE-in-CLIL research methodology is composed of three Action Research cycles and three levels of analysis. The first level is carried out during the field-work research, and both the second and third levels are carried out after the research.
Twenty-six fifth grade students in a primary school in Catalonia participate in the research. Four different tools are used for gathering data: teacher diaries, video recordings, analysis of documents and one motivational test. The findings were henceforth applied to different complementation and triangulation techniques. Finally, Action Research questions are answered, and teaching dilemmas that had emerged during the research are solved. The trustworthiness of this study is grounded in data collection and data analysis. This PE-in-CLIL research uses a wide range of strategies to achieve Guba’s (1985) criteria for evaluation of research in pursuit of a trustworthy qualitative study.
The analysis reveals that many features of PE tasks that promote integrated learning are linked to balanced tasks. A task is said to be balanced when it has a measured equivalence amongst motor, communication and cognition skills. Tasks need to be balanced and efficient to improve integrated learning. They must meet five requirements: be motivating, include physical activity, foster oral interaction, develop thinking and be socially conducive. The study also shows that collaborative and cooperative strategies, combined with the leader technique, foster oracy in PE-in-CLIL.
The results presented indicate that there are significant improvements in both oral comprehension and oral interaction. The most advantageous PE-in-CLIL activity involves a balanced task that incorporates language and movement without slowing down the pace of the activity. Drills with long explanations that reduce time allotted to physical activity are rejected.
The dissertation also discusses the pedagogical implications of its final product: teaching dilemmas and improvements proposals. The analysis of the teaching dilemmas shows how two different tasks can be transformed into a new integrated, holistic, task which proves to be more beneficial than the sum of its parts. The improvement proposals are presented in three parts: those related to scaffolding, those related to teaching, and those related to PE-in-CLIL pedagogy. Finally, the limitations of the study are exposed and the implications for future research of both motor and language learning are detailed. / Aquesta tesi estudia l’aplicació de l’enfocament educatiu AICLE/CLIL a l’educació física. Els acrònims AICLE (Aprenentatge Integrat de Continguts i Llengua Estrangera) i CLIL (Content and language Integrated learning) fan referència a un enfocament educatiu que utilitza la llengua estrangera com llengua vehicular en el procés d’aprenentatge d’assignatures que tenen altres continguts més enllà dels puramente lingüístics.
El programa d’educació física en CLIL està basat en el 4Cs framework (Coyle 2006, 2007 and Coyle, Hood and Marsh 2010). L’educació física en CLIL és un enfocament holístic que utilitza els principis d’aprendre fent per ensenyar continguts motrius a través d’una llengua estrangera i, al mateix temps, impulsar les habilitats cognitives i desenvolupar les relacions interpersonals i socials. Pel que fa a la recerca en CLIL, la major part dels estudis fan referència a aspectes lingüístics. S’han trobat molt poques recerques que vinculin l’educació física i l’enfocament CLIL.
L’objecte d’estudi té a veure amb la resposta que dóna l’educació física a una demanda social i institucional de plena actualitat com és l’ensenyament-aprenentatge de la llengua estrangera. Es pretén comprovar com el programa integrat afavoreix la didàctica de l’educació física i com contribueix a la competència comunicativa en llengua anglesa. En aquest punt es formula la següent pregunta inicial de la recerca: Com pot un programa d’aprenentatge integrat de continguts d’educació física i llengua anglesa millorar significativament la capacitat comunicativa oral de l’alumnat del cicle superior de primària? Per donar resposta a la pregunta s’estableixen quatre objectius: 1/ Determinar les característiques de les tasques d’educació física que afavoreixen l’aprenentatge integrat. 2/ Identificar les estratègies didàctiques específiques del programa d’educació física en CLIL que milloren la comunicació oral (comprensió i expressió oral – listening and speaking). 3/ Comprovar que amb l’aplicació del programa d’educació física en CLIL es produeix una millora significativa en la comprensió i l’expressió oral en llengua anglesa. 4/ Identificar les tasques integrades d’educació física i llengua anglesa amb més interès per l’alumnat.
S’ha escollit la investigació-acció com a mètode de recerca per tres raons. En primer lloc, perquè pot millorar l'aprenentatge i les pràctiques educatives. En segon lloc, perquè permet avançar en el coneixement i la teoria, és a dir, aportar noves idees sobre com les coses es poden fer i per què. Finalment, perquè permet al professorat ser investigador pràctic i desenvolupar la recerca en el propi centre educatiu. Concretament s’escull, i s’adapta, el model d’Elliot (1990, 1991, 2007) pel seu pragmatisme i perquè promou un procés que té lloc entre la teoria i els problemes de la seva aplicació a l’aula.
La mostra és un grup natural de vint-i-sis estudiants de cinquè nivell de l’ensenyament primari d’una escola pública de Catalunya. La informació s’obté mitjançant els diaris (del professor-investigador i dels observadors externs) com instruments principals i l’enregistrament en vídeo, l’anàlisi documental a més del test de motivació AMPET com instruments complementaris. S’han utilitzat diferents estratègies per garantir el rigor científic de la recerca (Guba 1985). Entre d’altres es disposen de diversos diaris de contrast i un grup interdisciplinar d’experts. Aquests col•laboradors crítics i validadors han contrastat els enregistraments relatius a la millora de l’expressió oral i els Key Learning Moments corresponents a les tasques d’educació física en CLIL.
L’anàlisi es desenvolupa en tres nivells. Un primer nivell que engloba tots els cicles d’investigació-acció. Un segon nivell que analitza, per separat, els resultats dels instruments utilitzats i un tercer nivell en el qual es determinen les coincidències i les discrepàncies entre els resultats dels diferents instruments mitjançant l’ús de tècniques de complementació i triangulació.
L’anàlisi revela la relació entre tasques equilibrades i aprenentatge integrat. Les tasques d’educació física en CLIL han de ser equilibrades i eficients per assolir un aprenentatge integrat. Es defineixen cinc característiques que han de complir: ser motivants, incloure activitat física, facilitar la comunicació oral, desenvolupar les habilitats cognitives i ser socialitzadores. L’estudi també mostra que les estratègies d’aprenentatge cooperatiu combinades amb la tècnica del líder i els jocs motrius estimulen la interacció oral. Els resultats que es presenten mostren una millora significativa en la comprensió i l’expressió oral en llengua anglesa. Es destaca la importància d’incorporar el llenguatge a la tasca motriu sense alentir l’activitat. Les tasques que requereixen d’explicacions llargues que redueixen el temps destinat a l’activitat física són rebutjades. Finalment, es tracten les implicacions pedagògiques i millores per les dues assignatures (educació física i llengua anglesa), la importància del suport lingüístic (scaffolding), les limitacions de l’estudi i les noves possibilitats de recerca en els camps de l’aprenentatge motriu i lingüístic. / Esta tesis estudia la aplicación del enfoque educativo AICLE/CLIL en la educación física. Los acrónimos AICLE (Aprendizaje Integrado de Contenidos y Lengua Extranjera) y CLIL (Content and language Integrated learning) se refieren a un enfoque educativo que utiliza la lengua extranjera como lengua vehicular en el proceso de enseñanza-aprendizaje de asignaturas que tienen otros contenidos más allá de los puramente lingüísticos.
El programa de educación física en CLIL está basado en el 4Cs framework (Coyle 2006, 2007 and Coyle, Hood and Marsh 2010). La educación física es un enfoque holístico que utiliza los principios del learning by doing para enseñar contenidos motrices mediante el uso de una lengua extranjera y, al mismo tiempo, impulsar las habilidades cognitivas y desarrollar las relaciones interpersonales y sociales. En referencia a la investigación en CLIL, la mayor parte de los estudios hacen referencia a aspectos lingüísticos. Se han hallado muy pocas investigaciones que relacionen la educación física y el enfoque educativo CLIL.
El objeto del estudio está vinculado con la respuesta que la educación física da a una demanda social e institucional de plena actualidad como es la enseñanza-aprendizaje de la lengua extranjera. Se pretende comprobar cómo el programa integrado favorece la didáctica de la educación física y cómo contribuye a la competencia comunicativa en lengua inglesa. Se formula la siguiente pregunta inicial: cómo puede un programa de aprendizaje integrado de contenidos de educación física y lengua inglesa mejorar significativamente la capacidad comunicativa oral del alumnado del ciclo superior de primaria? Para dar respuesta a la pregunta se establecen cuatro objetivos: 1/ Determinar las características de las tareas de educación física que favorecen el aprendizaje integrado. 2/ Identificar las estrategias didácticas específicas del programa de educación física en CLIL que mejoran la comunicación oral (comprensión y expresión oral -listening and speaking). 3/ Comprobar que con la aplicación del programa de educación física en CLIL se produce una mejora significativa de la comprensión y la expresión oral en lengua inglesa. 4/ Identificar las tareas integradas de educación física y lengua inglesa que despiertan más interés en el alumnado.

La muestra corresponde a un grupo natural de veintiséis estudiantes de quinto nivel de educación primaria de una escuela pública de Catalunya. La información se obtiene mediante los diarios (del profesor-investigador y de los observadores externos) como instrumentos principales y la grabación en vídeo, el análisis de documentos y el test de motivación AMPET como instrumentos complementarios. Se han utilizado diversas estrategias para garantizar el rigor científico de la investigación (Guba 1985). Entre otras, se disponen de diversos diarios de contraste y de un grupo interdisciplinar de expertos colaboradores críticos y validadores. Se han contrastado los registros relativos a la mejora de la expresión oral y los Key Learning Moments correspondientes a las tareas de educación física en CLIL.
El análisis se desarrolla en tres niveles. El primer nivel abarca todos los ciclos de investigación-acción. En el segundo nivel se analizan, por separado, los resultados de los diferentes instrumentos utilizados y en el tercer nivel se determinan las coincidencias y discrepancias entre los resultados de los diferentes instrumentos usando técnicas de complementación y triangulación.
El análisis revela la relación entre tareas equilibradas y aprendizaje integrado. Las tareas de educación física en CLIL han de ser equilibradas y eficientes para alcanzar un aprendizaje integrado. Se definen cinco características que han de cumplir: ser motivantes, incluir actividad física, facilitar la comunicación oral, desarrollar las habilidades cognitivas y ser socializadoras. El estudio también muestra que las estrategias de aprendizaje cooperativo combinadas con la técnica del líder y los juegos motrices estimulan la interacción oral. Los resultados que se presentan muestran una mejora significativa en la comprensión y la expresión oral en lengua inglesa. Se destaca la importancia de incorporar el lenguaje a la tarea motriz sin ralentizar la actividad. Las tareas que requieren de largar explicaciones que reducen el tiempo dedicado a la actividad física son rechazadas. Finalmente, se tratan las implicaciones pedagógicas y mejoras para las dos asignaturas (educación física y lengua inglesa), la importancia del soporte lingüístico (scaffolding), las limitaciones del estudio y las nuevas posibilidades de investigación en los campos del aprendizaje motor y lingüístico.

Room for Improvement? : A comparative study of Swedish learners’ free written production in English in the foreign language classroom and in immersion educationKjellén Simes, Marika January 2008 (has links)
The present study examines the effects of immersion education on the English of two groups of advanced Swedish learners at upper secondary school. In immersion education, or CLIL, subject content is taught through a second language as a means of enhancing target language competence. In this study, language proficiency was measured in terms of the ratio of low frequency vocabulary (LFV) and the ratio of motivated tense shift (MTSh) in the learners’ free written production in English. An additional aim was to see whether the results were related to the students’ motivation as reported in a questionnaire. This longitudinal study was based on three sets of narratives, written by 86 students, half of them enrolled at the International Baccalaureate Diploma Programme (IB) where English is the medium of instruction, and the other half at national programmes (NP), where English is studied as a foreign language. At the outset, the IB and NP groups had similar results on a general diagnostic test, which was the basis for the formation of three subgroups: I, II and III, with above average, average and below average scores respectively. Mean LFV and MTSh ratios as well as different kinds of motivation were compared, both overall and in the subgroups. The IB students overall, and those in subgroup III in particular, showed the best results. As to the overall results, the IB students used significantly higher mean ratios of LFV and MTSh than the NP students in the final set of compositions. There were also a number of motivational factors that were stronger in the IB students. As to the subgroups, the most interesting results were found in subgroups I and III. While the IB students in subgroup I had high mean ratios already in the first composition, and retained them over time, their use of MTSh tended to grow subtler. The NP students had lower mean results initially, and while their mean MTSh ratio increased and ended up on a level similar to that of the IB students, their mean LFV ratio remained low. In subgroup III the results of the IB and NP students diverged over time. While the IB students progressed as reflected in their mean LFV and MTSh ratios, the NP students tended to regress. The difference in mean LFV ratios was statistically significant. The IB students were also better motivated than their NP peers. In all, this study suggests that immersion education has positive target language effects, especially on less proficient but motivated students.
