Universidad Autónoma de Madrid's CLIL research group (THE UAM-CLIL PROJECT)
Content and Language Integrated Learning, or CLIL,
is the term used for the European version of bilingual education, an
approach to foreign language learning which is extending rapidly in
Spain. The UAM-CLIL research project has been designed to respond to the
need for information on this new teaching/learning situation, as it is
being implemented in our local state secondary schools. The project
started in the academic year 2005-06, and since that year we have
collected spoken and written data from CLIL classes, following the same
students throughout the four years of obligatory secondary education
(ESO) in Social Sciences, focusing especially on History.
