CURSO EN LÍNEA: ENRICHING PROFESSIONAL KNOWLEDGE, PEDAGOGY AND PRACTICE IN USING NEW TECHNOLOGIES TO STRENGTHEN CONTENT AND LANGUAGE INTEGRATED LEARNING (B_0058)

Sussex

This online professional development programme will cover key areas of theory, practice and innovations in the fields of CLIL pedagogy, curriculum design and assessment, as well as the role of new technologies in strengthening practice. The course will offer an online learning experience which explores how new technologies can inform and enrich creative teaching, learning and assessment pedagogies across CLIL curricula.

The programme is aimed at Secondary school teachers practicing in bilingual contexts in the Comunidad de Madrid. The main focus will be on associated pedagogies, curriculum design, new technologies and language learning strategies in schools which cater for students 11–18 years age ranges. The programme will consist of a mixture of preparatory self study, mentoring by experienced teacher educators from the university, inputs from teacher education experts sharing recent research and techniques in CLIL. Through a combination of online workshops, simulated hands on learning, participants will have a stimulating and developmental opportunity to deepen their understanding of theoretical, practical and evidence based recommendations on how to strengthen and embed CLIL in their own classrooms through reflection and research. Participants will be challenged and supported to develop approaches which not only develop their classroom practice but can be sustainably shared with others in school and partnership contexts.

Metodología

The course delivery models appropriate teaching and learning practice by incorporating a range of formats that include tutor delivery; small and large group activities and discussion; self-reflection on practice; peer feedback; collaborative writing; and flipped learning through advance preparation of material from an e-learning digital platform: Canvas LMS.

Each session will be lead by a member of University of Sussex faculty or a school practitioner from a partner school.

There is a strong focus throughout on utilising an action-learning approach, whereby course participants support each other through listening and responding to shared or distinct teaching experiences and contexts.

The course is assessed by the production of a draft curriculum including learning objectives, teaching methods, assessment tools and resources. Participants will be assigned to groups on the basis of role and institution in breakout activities, providing a targeted opportunity to maximise learning opportunities through fostering dialogue to share institutional best practice across Madrid, and modelling collaborative working. Participants will be supported in developing their curriculum by the course team through group sessions and individual support throughout the week. All participants will receive a University of Sussex certificate of course participation as well as a personalised letter recognising levels of engagement and success.

Evaluación

Quality assurance mechanisms will include:

  • Anonymised questionnaires will be used to assess participant satisfaction, tutor evaluations of participant engagement and progress and feedback from school partners.
  • A Student Voice Committee meeting is convened by the Project Leader. This allows student representatives to discuss the student experience across the provision and to consider, where relevant, ways of improving or enhancing it.
