If education is to prepare learners for lifelong learning, there needs to be a shift towards deeper learning: a focus on transferable knowledge and problem-solving skills alongside the development of a positive or growth mindset. In this book, a follow up to CLIL, the authors review new developments in the understanding of the interface between language and learning, and propose an original new 'pluriliteracies' approach which refines and develops current thinking in CLIL. It aims to facilitate deeper learning through an explicit focus on disciplinary literacies, guiding learners towards textual fluency, encouraging successful communication across cultures, and providing a key stepping-stone towards becoming responsible global citizens. It both provides strong theoretical grounding, and shows how to put that understanding into practise. Engaging and practical, this book will be invaluable to both academics and education practitioners, and will enable conventional classrooms to be transformed into deeper learning ecologies.
Rezensionen / Stimmen
'... this book is a powerful invitation to break boundaries and engage in context-appropriate and culturally-sustaining pedagogies that celebrate diversity and somehow mirror the way individuals learn outside/before formal education. I highly recommend this book ... volume will be an eye-opener to educators within and beyond the area of language education.' Dario Luis Banegas, System
