Description:<br />
This project, involving schools from across Northern and Southern Europe, aimed to<br />
embed Content and Language Integrated Learning (CLIL) into the curriculum of all<br />
partners. Through learning the content of different subjects, including concepts such<br />
as learning to learn, in a foreign language, the project aimed to increase students'<br />
awareness of the need to be able to communicate effectively and enable them to be<br />
more autonomous learners.<br />
These skills will allow students to be more successful in a globalised society. Teachers<br />
participating in the project had the opportunity to develop, test and share CLIL<br />
materials in a wide variety of subject areas including Maths, Science, Technology and<br />
Humanities.<br />
Through a constant process of evaluation, the project asked teachers to identify<br />
and encourage best practice by combining ideas and methods from across the<br />
partner institutions. A continual focus on using collaborative work and<br />
communication as the main tools for developing the partnership ensured that all<br />
participants benefit from the pan-European nature of the project.<br />
