| Sumario: | Our world is becoming more and more complex, constantly imposing new societal, cultural and professional demands on the individual, such as the increased need for plurilinguistic competences. This situation has prompted the systematic search for new teaching methods that encourage the learning of foreign languages in the school context. One of these approaches is CLIL (Content and Language Integrated Learning) instruction. In Spain, CLIL is increasingly becoming a widespread approach in order to foster foreign language learning in both primary and secondary education. The major aim of this paper is to discuss the implementation of CLIL methodology in three Spanish monolingual communities (Extremadura, Madrid, and La Rioja) so as to suggest future actions to improve its development. In doing so, it will look into the similar and distinctive traits of CLIL implementation initiatives in these communities as well as analysing the various teacher training programmes designed to prepare teachers for bilingual education and what CLIL research has concluded in the Extremadura, Madrid and La Rioja area to date. |
