The adoption of Content and Language Integrated Learning (CLIL) in Higher Education teaching has been widespread. This learning strategy has developed the need to learn foreign languages and to communicate with people with different cultural backgrounds. Culture learning should be part of language and content teaching as Higher Education involves language skills, topic comprehension and sociological capabilities. Teachers explore new teaching strategies which imply diverse goals and focus on different cultural backgrounds.
The contributions of this book comment the multicultural awareness of the students involved in learning another language and the facts implied in teaching in a multicultural environment.
The Editor: María Luisa Carrió-Pastor is a senior lecturer of English Language at Universidad Politécnica de Valencia, where she teaches at Escuela Técnica Superior de Ingeniería del Diseño. Her research areas are contrastive linguistics and the analysis of academic and professional discourse for second language acquisition. She has published several articles related to teaching strategies considering the impact of the Internet and Content and Language Integrated Learning.
