Abstract

Content and language integrated learning (CLIL) has been used for longer than two decades on Primary and Secondary levels of education to foster language competence in a foreign language using professional register. Many studies have been devoted to the CLIL issues and investigated CLIL impact on students’ performance both in the foreign language and in content. A lot of research has been done on teachers involved in CLIL application into education. There is also a call for unifying and standardizing CLIL to help teachers and schools to start CLIL implementation. The term “CLIL pedagogy” has also appeared.

Our contribution deals with recently finished ERASMUS+ project focusing on finding good CLIL practice in different countries in Europe across Primary and Secondary sectors. We have observed diverse forms of CLIL application and we think that CLIL diversity is the good practice we were looking for obviously if CLIL basic principle of duality is followed in CLIL activities or lessons. This paper also illustrates CLIL and its potential in Higher Education from internationalization process perspective. According to our experience some proposals how to apply CLIL in Higher Education are described.
