Widening
horizons
Dear teacher,
It is our pleasure to welcome you to the 4th edition of the Bilingual
Campus, organized by Cardenal Cisneros University and Edelvives
Publishing.
Over the last four years your enthusiasm, your active participation
and positive feedback in the previous editions have made us realize
the uniqueness of this training and the special meaning it has for all
those of you who participated in it.
We are proud to organize the Campus for small groups of CLIL
teachers to whom we guarantee the highest quality training.
We truly believe in the importance of friendly, cooperative settings
where teachers and trainers work hand in hand and where we can
promote a natural exchange of innovative CLIL solutions.
This year we have designed a two-day intensive programme with
excellent workshops and social activities dealing with the CLIL
approach.
We invite you to participate and share ideas with your colleagues,
learn more and widen your horizons as a CLIL professional.
Remember the meaning of a TEAM: Together Everyone Achieves
More.
We are looking forward to seeing you in Alcalá in July!
Sincerely yours,
Bilingual Campus Coordinators
Josué Llull Peñalba

ABOUT
THE
TRAINERS
Ana Halbach
> is a lecturer in the Department of Modern Languages at the Universidad
de Alcalá. She is currently involved in various research projects in the area of
bilingual education, focussing especially on the development of literacies in
bilingual programs, and the role of both the foreign language and the mother
tongue in this kind of learning contexts. She leads the Master in Teaching
English as a Foreign Language, and is involved in various teacher training
projects in collaboration with other institutions.
When she is not reading, discussing or thinking about education, Ana
enjoys sharing her time with her family and friends, walking in the
mountains, playing board games (which her children are starting to call
boring games), gardening…
Matthew Johnson
> has worked as an EFL teacher and trainer in the UK, Colombia and
Spain. Now he teaches at the Cardenal Cisneros University College and the
British Council. He specializes in bilingual education, learner training and
developing speaking skills.
Matthew loves camping in Europe and sleeps better in a tent than in
his own bed at home. He’s also an avid reader, an American TV series
addict and a bedroom guitarist.
Will Varney

worked in both the state and private sectors and has also been an examiner,

CLIL TRAINING

She has been the coordinator of the Bilingual Project since 2009, and also the

A good teacher never stops learning, and that’s what I try to do each and
every day!

been involved in the implementation of plurilingualism in the Spanish education
system. He has recently worked on CLIL projects with the regional governments
of Madrid, Catalonia and Valencia. His areas of interest include literacy, music
and drama. He strongly believes that purposeful creativity should be in the core
of the curriculum.
Richard is still striving to become a virtuoso clarinet and saxophone player.
Much more practice needed.
Edward Marks
> is an English teacher who uses art, music, theatre and storytelling as his
launch pad for language acquisition. He believes that motivation, curiosity
and self-esteem are the foundations for effective language learning and these
form the basis of all his teaching. Eward is a founding director of the Building
English Language School, collaborator with the Departmento de la didáctica de la
expresión plástica of the Complutense University, writer of children’s stories and
composer of songs for young learners.

Plenary
Session
Ana Halbach
> Universidad Alacalá de Henares
«What happens to language teaching in a bilingual program?»
Teaching in a bilingual school is all about changing the language of instruction,
and consequently changing the teaching methodology in the content
subjects. But what happens to language teaching in this kind of programs?
Are there any methodological changes in the teaching of languages too?
Should there be? These and other questions will be answered in this talk
providing lots of practical examples and getting participants to develop their
understanding of the role of the language teacher in bilingual programs.

«Best Friends - CLIL and ICT»
If we really want to make the most of new technologies, we have to go
beyond using a digital tool merely to substitute the old way of doing a task
and move towards redesigning tasks or even creating new ones. This session
looks at ways in which we can use technology to promote communication,
collaboration, creativity and higher order thinking skills in order not only to
enhance, but transform our students’ learning.

«Working together in the CLIL classroom»
This session explores the potential for cooperative learning in the Primary
CLIL classroom. Demonstrating practical activities across a range of subject
areas, we’ll see how effective content teaching can go hand in hand with
creating an environment where pupils will learn from each other.

«Oh, Romeo, Romeo! Using Drama in content CLIL lessons»
In this workshop, we will discover how drama techniques can (and should)
be a relevant tool in CLIL classrooms. They are not only valid to boost
students’ motivation but also a fantastic way to scaffold students’ learning,
among other interesting benefits I’ll be discussing in the presentation. In
this session, participants will be involved in the use of a number of highly
effective techniques they can later keep and easily adapt to any teaching
context.

Physical
Education
Richard Bradley
> Trinity College London
«Let’s Get Physical!»
Much recent research strongly suggests that there is a strong positive
correlation between physical fitness and academic performance. Moreover,
moving while learning seems to aid the ‘logging in’ of the new information.
In this active, practical workshop we will explore how increased physical
activity can be successfully integrated in the primary school classroom,
referring particularly to the challenges of the CLIL context.
12:00
Brunch and Publisher’s Exhibition (Courtesy of ByME)
ByME is a project created by Macmillan and Edelvives in order to improve
the quality of teaching and learning in bilingual schools in Spain. We invite
you to discover ByME news, receive special publisher’s gifts and participate
in a prize draw.

AFTERNOON
How can we get students to use English with each other in the Art class?
The busy teacher needs every possible tool available when trying to achieve
the delicate balance of successful CLIL teaching. From ‘Monopoly’ to ‘Top
Trumps’ and ‘Snakes and Ladders’, in this workshop we will look at the
world of board games and card games, how they can easily be designed and
created in the classroom, then used as a very effective tool for student led
English use.
