  1. CLIL and TBL Dave Willis: TESOL Arabia 2009

  2. CLIL: • generates the kind of written text and • discussion that reflect the uses of language which will be required of learners in the real world. • treats language as a tool for research and as a vehicle for the exchange of information. • treats language as a meaning system, valued for what it can do. • places grammar and vocabulary in their proper place as means to an end, not as an end in themselves. Dave Willis: TESOL Arabia 2009

  3. Characterising tasks. • (Is the activity engaging?) • Is there a primary focus on meaning? • Is there an outcome? • Is success judged in terms of outcome? • Is completion a priority? • Does the activity relate to real world activities? • Is the activity relevant to learners’ needs?

  11. www.sciam.com/askexpert_question. Which is colder: the North Pole or the South Pole? Dave Willis: TESOL Arabia 2009

  12. There is no land at the North Pole, only an ice-cap In the middle of the Arctic Ocean the surface of the ice rises only a foot above the sea. Dave Willis: TESOL Arabia 2009

  13. The Antarctic is by far the highest of the five continents, rising to more than a mile and a half above sea level Dave Willis: TESOL Arabia 2009

  14. Water keeps in the heat of the sun better than dry land. Dave Willis: TESOL Arabia 2009

  15. 1 There is no land at the Arctic – only an ice-cap. 2 In the middle of the Arctic Ocean the surface of the ice rises only a foot above the sea. 3 The Antarctic is by far the highest of the five continents, rising to more than a mile and a half above sea level 4 Water keeps in the heat of the sun better than dry land. 5 For six months in the year there is no sunshine at the poles. 6 During the rest of the year the polar regions get very little sunshine compared with other latitudes. Dave Willis: TESOL Arabia 2009

  16. WHICH IS COLDER: THE NORTH POLE OR THE SOUTH POLE? The North and South poles are both very cold because they get very little sunshine compared with the rest of the earth. The sun never rises more than 23.5 degrees above the horizon, and for six months of the year the poles get no sunshine at all. Also most of the sunlight is reflected back by the bright white surface. [1] One foot is roughly 13 centimetres. [2] A mile is 1.6 kilometres. Dave Willis: TESOL Arabia 2009

  17. So both poles are very cold, but the South Pole is much colder than the North Pole because it sits on top of a very thick ice sheet, which itself sits on dry land, on the continent of Antarctica. The top of the ice sheet near the South Pole is more than 9,000 feet above sea level – more than a mile and a half high, so Antarctica is by far the highest continent on earth. In comparison the North Pole rests in the middle of the Arctic Ocean, where the surface of the ice is only about a foot above the sea. The Ocean also keeps in the heat, making it less cold in winter and warmer in the summer. Dave Willis: TESOL Arabia 2009

  18. WHICH IS COLDER, THE NORTH POLE OR THE SOUTH POLE? Both polar regions of the earth are cold, primarily because they receive far less solar radiation than the tropics and mid-latitudes do. At either pole the sun never rises more than 23.5 degrees above the horizon and both locations experience six months of continuous darkness. Moreover, most of the sunlight that does shine on the polar regions is reflected by the bright white surface. What makes the South Pole so much colder than the North Pole is that it sits on top of a very thick ice sheet, which itself sits on a continent. Dave Willis: TESOL Arabia 2009

  19. The surface of the ice sheet at the South Pole is more than 9,000 feet in elevation -- more than a mile and a half above sea level. Antarctica is by far the highest continent on the earth. In comparison, the North Pole rests in the middle of the Arctic Ocean, where the surface of floating ice rides only a foot or so above the surrounding sea. The Arctic Ocean also acts as an effective heat reservoir, warming the cold atmosphere in the winter and drawing heat from the atmosphere in the summer.

  25. Focus on Meaning 1 Learners are concerned to deploy the language they have to the best of their ability in order to achieve communicative goals. 2 Receptively this requires creative guesswork and inference relying on world knowledge. 3 Productively this requires tolerance of error and the ability to deploy limited language creatively. 4 Success is judged in terms of success in achievement of goals. Dave Willis: TESOL Arabia 2009

  26. Focus on form. • A focus on one or two linguistic forms, specified by the teacher. • Teachers control learner language. • The success of the procedure is judged in terms of whether or not learners produce the target forms with an acceptable level of accuracy. Dave Willis: TESOL Arabia 2009

  27. Focus on language The need for language focus is prompted by the need to mean. 1 To express increasingly complex notions. 2 To be receiver friendly. 3 For precision. 4 For presentation of self. 5 To respect the receiver. Dave Willis: TESOL Arabia 2009

  28. Focus on language. • The need for language focus is prompted by the need to mean. • Learners look for appropriate ways to express their meanings. • This search is learner initiated. • Success is judged in terms of how successfully the subsequent communication is achieved.
