| Resumo: | Content and Language Integrated Learning (CLIL) is a communicative approach based on teaching a non-language subject through the medium of a foreign language, which is recommended by European policies on multilingualism. In Spain, the programme was first put into practice in Andalusia in school year 1998-1999 and in the Balearic Islands in 2004-2005, where the programme is called “European Sections”. The aim of the case study carried out is to analyze the universalized implementation of the programme in a state high school in Majorca where the subject of Technology is taught in English in compulsory secondary education. The research is based on both qualitative and quantitative data, gathered mainly from questionnaires. Findings show that this approach promotes student motivation and the use of the four language skills by the learners, while highlighting a lack of qualified teachers. The role of the L1 and L2 in CLIL classrooms is also analyzed |
