  •  - 
  • Location:Ho Chi Minh City

Content and Language Integrated Learning (CLIL) refers to teaching subjects such as science, history, and engineering through a foreign language. Through collaboration with Arizona State University, engineering students in Vietnam learn from master teachers in English. Experienced engineering professors often lack the requisite skills for teaching beyond their subject matter. This workshop will give them specific strategies and techniques to integrate English language concepts into their curriculum while teaching engineering through English.
