Abstract:

This book provides a rich and unique longitudinal account of content and
language integrated learning (CLIL). The chapters report on the findings from
a large-scale, three-year research project undertaken at senior high school
level in Sweden. The ecological perspective, with quantitative and qualitative
methods, gives voice to both learners and teachers, as well as being an
excellent critical example of how such longitudinal research might be carried
out. Through emic and etic approaches, the book provides insights into
language learning outcomes, both with regard to the target language English
and the majority language Swedish; learner motivation among CLIL and non-CLIL
students; effects of extramural exposure to English; issues in relation to
assessment in CLIL and much more. As a whole, the book offers an unprecedented
overview of learner outcomes and detailed insights into the comparison of CLIL
and non-CLIL education. While it is embedded in the Swedish context, the
nature of this study means that it has strong implications on an international
basis.
