CLIL-SI is a collaborative network formed by the Language and Education (LED) university-based researchers working in partnership with teachers-as-researchers who are interested in improving language education in their schools through enquiry-based innovation projects.
CLIL-SI specialises in empowering approaches to Teacher Education and carries out three types of actions: mentoring, inquiry-based innovation, and research on (foreign) language education and CLIL.
One of the objectives of the collaborative research currently carried out by CLIL-SI is to improve our understanding of the learning of school curricular content in multilingual environments. The aim is to be able to formulate and evaluate teaching/learning proposals oriented towards holistic language education. (Learn more.)
