learning, and content-based instruction, which
is one of the approaches in the framework of
language education, although CLIL shares many
educational practices with existing approaches
[3;1]. While other scholars claim that (CLIL) is
placed in the middle of a continuum between
approaches of English as a foreign language
(EFL), which emphasizes structural learning,
and the other polar, those of English as a second
language (ESL), which encourages natural
language acquisition [3;15]. CLIL is also used as
an umbrella term to include all the approaches
from immersion to student exchanges We take one
of the definitions of CLIL in Ikeda [4;32]., which
was described as a typical CLIL, where ‘academic
subjects such as geography or science are taught
in English by non-native content teachers’, since
it reflects the context of CLIL implementations
we investigate in this study. English medium
instruction (EMI) classes are included in the
definition of CLIL. CLIL was first introduced in
European countries in the mid-1990s to adhere
European Union’s (EU) multilingual policies. The
European Commission explicitly states that their
citizens should acquire ‘at least two community
languages in addition to their mother tongue’.
Mehisto, Marsh, and Frigols introduce core 30
features of CLIL [5;30]:
1. Multiples focus: supporting language
learning in content classes; supporting content
learning in language classes integrating several
subjects; organizing learning through cross-
curricular themes and projects supporting
reflection on the learning process.
2. Safe and enriching learning environment:
using routine activities and discourse; displaying
language and content throughout the classroom;
building student confidence to experiment with
language and content; using classroom learning
centers; guiding access to authentic learning
materials and environments; increasing student
language awareness.
3. Authenticity: letting the students ask for
the language help they need; maximizing the
accommodation of student interest; making
a regular connection between learning and
students’ lives; connecting with other speakers of
the CLIL language; using current materials from
the media and other sources.
4. Active learning: students communicating
more than the teacher; students help set content,
language and learning skills outcomes; students
evaluate progress in achieving learning outcomes;
favoring peer cooperative work negotiating the
meaning of language and content with students;
teachers acting as facilitators.
5. Scaffolding: building on a student’s
existing knowledge, skills, attitude, interests and
experience; repackaging information in user-
friendly ways; responding to different learning
styles; fostering creative and critical thinking;
challenging students to take another step forward
and not just coast in comfort.
6. Co-operation: planning courses/lessons/
themes in co-operation with CLIL and non-CLIL
educators; involving parents in learning about
CLIL and how to support students; involving the
local community, authorities, and employers.
