Call for Submissions September 2013 CLIL in Asian Contexts: Emerging Trends
The Asian EFL Journal is one of the world's leading refereed and indexed journals in the field of teaching and learning English. It provides a unique and major forum devoted to discussions on English as an International Language research and development.
The journal plans to publish a Special Issue on CLIL in Asian Contexts: Emerging Trends in September, 2013. The aim is to provide a variety of perspectives on matters related to Content and Language Integrated Learning in the Asian context.
CLIL is becoming increasingly popular in various levels of education across Asia. The research emanating from Europe is particularly informative to educators merging content and language. It is, however, necessary to provide a forum to reflect its growth in the diverse Asian contexts in which it is adopted.
Authors are encouraged to submit papers in the following categories:
1. Research Articles (RA) drawing upon data which are well-referenced.
2. Teaching Articles (TA) focusing on practical teaching methodologies with some references.
3. Curriculum Contexts (CC), a new category which seeks articles describing a CLIL program and its connection with content.
RAs should be between 7,000 to 10,000 words including appendices and references.
TAs should be between 5,000 to 7,000 words including appendices and references.
CCs should be between 1,500 to 2,000 words including appendices and references.
The deadline for submissions is 31st October, 2012.
Possible topics include, but are not limited to:
- CLIL at various levels of education
- ESP/EAP in preparation for or to support content instruction
- Language and content faculty collaboration
- CLIL classroom discourse
- CLIL methodology/assessment/evaluation
