Module 3 - Personal thoughts

Your personal thought: What did you learn? How did you learn? Do you have any problem? Would you like to investigate a bit more about any subject? Which question do you propose to someone who read this post to help you with CLIL? In this module I learnt a lot about evaluation and assessment. I know that if you want to change your methodologies in class you have to change the way you evaluate. This is the base to teach in a new way more kind for students or probably more interesting for them. Traditionally the teacher was the only one how participated in the students evaluation, and it has no sense because the students are the ones who need to know their progress and what did they learnt in each unit. It's very helpful and motivating to use peer assessment and sometimes self assessment in each unit.

Your personal thoughts about the module: What did you learn? I've learn that there are a lot of tools to use in my class! In fact it's difficult to choose just one tool. How did you learn?

How to plan a clil unit. How to use motivational tools. How to work in group using different formats (cooperative techniques and thinking routines) 2 things I will do in my lessons. To work in a cooperative way ( experts, puzzle...) To use more mo
