Key words: Improving learning, Teacher competences
Description:
The objectives of the project were to developing approaches to teaching and learning/
pedagogical skills that support the acquisition by all students of the ““Basic
Competences” including the training of teachers in adopting a holistic approach to
achieve the above; to encourage teachers in the classroom to integrate the “Basic
Competences” into their subject teaching and to provide support: linguistic,
methodological, IT support and the sharing of best practice.
It has developed 32 topic-based "Units" in accessing Science through English as a
foreign (additional) language; the language-neutral, subject-neutral "Model" which will
be used as a teacher-training tool in the production of the "Units" will also allow
future development of "Units" in other languages/subjects.
The target students have benefited from clearer linguistic access to the curriculum,
teachers have benefited from more effective lesson planning and teacher trainers
have benefited from a wider vision of meeting the needs of their CLIL teachers in
schools. The results are Didactic materials.
