MEBS08 Desarrollo de Materiales CLIL Subject: Desarrollo de Materiales CLIL / CLIL Materials Development Type: Compulsory Language: English Instruction: Blended Credits: 4 Semester: 2nd Professor: Beatriz López Medina, PhD. 1. PREVIOUS REQUIREMENTS Demonstrate sufficient performance at level B2+ in English. 2. BRIEF DESCRITPION OF CONTENTS This course presents an overview on CLIL materials and activities conducted with the focus on designing CLIL integrated curricula. It aims to encourage students to create and adapt their own didactic materials as well as to promote ideas to develop foreign language learner’s creativity and motivation towards the process of acquiring a second language. The course is divided into three main sections: the elaboration process and the analysis and evaluation of CLIL didactic units, the selection and adaptation of texts to the student’s knowledge level and the use of ICT for learning and teaching in bilingual contexts, all of them within the perspective of the communicative approach and the task-based learning. The main goals are the following: to analyze to what extent materials and resources are helpful in the teaching –learning process, as well as to make students reflect upon how we teach what we teach. 3. LEARNING OUTCOMES Upon successful completion of this subject the student will be able to: - Apply the acquired knowledge and problem-solving skills to the new field of study, foreign language learning and teaching. - Communicate reasonably about topics related to their field of study. - Be able to acquire independently new knowledge in their study field, foreign language learning and teaching. - Know the linguistic and cultural problems in the teaching and learning of foreign languages. - Communicate about the teaching and learning of foreign languages within the academic community and with society in general. - Support their teaching practice with the knowledge they have acquired. - Design integrated curricula in the area of bilingual teaching and learning. MEBS08_CLIL Materials Development_DLAE [2] 2015-16 - Create and adapt the most suitable materials for bilingual education, taking into account the different levels of linguistic competence and learning paces. - Incorporate new strategies, materials and technologies to the bilingual classroom activities. - Use specialized terminology for the teaching and learning of foreign languages. - Select and use adequate texts in order to develop linguistic and cultural competence in Spanish/English foreign language. - Practice and acquire necessary skills to reach the C1 level in English. - Know and apply the communicative approach and task-based learning for linguistic interaction in English and Spanish. - Know the methodology of teaching and learning based on language and content integration (CLIL); and know how to design and develop didactic activities based on that methodology. 4. 4. TRAINING ACTIVITIES AND METHODOLOGY The teaching methodology combines face to face and online teaching, so it will be a mixed methodology (blended learning), which relies on the use of ICT (Nebrija Virtual Campus on Blackboard platform) to support collaborative work (forums, chat, videoconference meeting) the guidance of Professor (calendar, bulletin board, links) and the delivery of jobs (tasks and tool box to work). The program combines various elements to develop methodological reflection on teaching contents through language and language through topics. This is specified in an interactive methodology that requires the participation of students and teacher in the discussion of issues. Class participation is a key aspect of this course which is based on a communicative approach. Participation means being able to ask questions, answer questions when called upon, volunteering answers to questions and actively listen to others. Previous reading of the texts proposed for discussion and further consideration will allow students to seek information through the resources available and be able to judge it critically for use in further learning and research processes. The training actions of this Master are specified as follows: - Teaching sessions In-campus teaching sessions Online teaching sessions - Learning activities, individual and in groups outside the classroom sessions - Tutorials - Additional training activities MEBS08_CLIL Materials Development_DLAE [3] 2015-2016 5. EVALUATION Assessment tools: 1. Attendance and participation in working groups and discussion. 2. Group and individual activities. 3. Development and delivery of presentation in the area of CLIL Materials Development. Evaluation criteria: - Ability for teamwork and problem solving. - Ability to search information through various sources and resources, to judge it critically and use it appropriately for teaching or research purposes. - Ability to relate the content to teaching practice and other areas of knowledge. - Active participation in class discussions. - Ability to argue, defend with relevant data and contrast items proposed. - Use of typographical, structural and presentation conventions as well as capacity for reflection, analysis and drawing conclusions. 5.1. Ordinary Evaluation: 5.1.1 Directed Activities (practice, tutorials, exercises & on-line activities, final assignment: stand, etc.) 25% 5.1.2 Online and in–campus class participation (including forums) 15% 5.1.3 Final Exam 60% Optional activities will be assigned in the 7 units that make up the syllabus. Please note that your final mark is the result of the average of your marks providing you have completed compulsory assignments and exam. Students are expected to have all lessons and set tasks prepared on the dates indicated. Late work will not be accepted and will not receive a mark. Plagiarism (illegal and unauthorised copying) is penalised with a zero grade 0 for the entire course. 5.2. Repeat Evaluation: 5.2.1. Repeat exam 60% 5.2.2.
