Abstract

This paper proposes the adoption of Web technologies in order to bring the approach known as Content and Language Integrated Learning (CLIL) into primary school. CLIL is a form of language immersion where the learners’ foreign language represents the medium for classroom instruction regarding other school subjects. The idea is to design and implement ad hoc Web interfaces oriented to bi- and multi-lingualism. In this context, we will propose two educational environments: the first one uses standard Web technologies such as HTML5 and JavaScript, whereas the second one adopts in addition IEEE 1599, a format originally designed for the representation and synchronization of music and media contents, whose multi-layer structure – suitably adapted – can foster abilities and reinforcement techniques typical of CLIL.
