Dear Jhonathan,
Thank you for stating such an interesting question.
I agree with Andrea when she mentions that CLIL helps both students and teachers
to see the language and the content differently and to develop cognitive
strategies. It is not a learning process of the student. The teacher also learns from
students experiences and ideas.
Regarding your question, I think CLIL, per se, is an approach which covers some
general aspects. It can be aided by some methodologies and strategies that
contribute to the learning processes. In my opinion, it is necessary because CLIL
provides some general guidelines, but there is also a need for having some steps
depending on the specific contexts where CLIL is going to be applied and its
particular needs. What do you think about it?
All your comments and insights regarding this issue are more than welcome!
Best,
Yuranny Marcela Romero
