Subject: CLIL-ing through Board Games. Challenge accepted! - Call for Papers and Educational Scenarios

 
It is with great pleasure that we invite you to submit manuscripts to be
included in our edited book titled ‘CLIL-ing through board games. Challenge
accepted!’ (Editors: Thomaï Alexiou & Athanasios Karasimos)
The new-age board gaming dominance started with the famous Catan, which marked
the shift from the old and traditional board games, like Monopoly, Taboo,
Hotel, Risk, Trivial Pursuit. Modern board games reduce or negate the “luck
factor”, include the cooperation mode, and are easily adjustable for
educational and research purposes covering a wide range of scientific areas
and disciplines. All genres of modern board games are language independent (a
game without text) or language dependent (a game with texts).  Both are ideal
for language teaching and Content and Language Integrated Learning (CLIL) and
they are in line with the current tenets of foreign language pedagogy.

The edited book will be divided into 2 parts. The first part will present an
account of the theoretical underpinnings on the use and benefits of board
games in the language classroom along with research studies conducted on this
area. The second part will include a selection of EFL teaching scenarios in
the form of a template (see Appendix I for the Template, and Appendix II for a
Sample scenario). These board games scenarios should be based on specific
thematic areas and can be addressed to learners of any CEFR language levels
and educational sectors (preschool, primary, secondary, university etc).

Thematic areas for the Scenario:

Arts and Crafts
Biology
Career orientation
Chemistry
Cultural issues
Economics
Environmental Studies
Geography
 Geology
Geometry
