Adaptive Learning in Computing for Non-English Speakers

چکیده
The mastery of foreign languages has become a core competency for Computing students both in the pursuit of their studies and to facilitate their future job search. The European Commission has identified CLIL (Content and Language Integrated Learning) as a strong alternative to Language Immersion and Content-Based Instruction. CLIL refers to “educational settings where a language other than the students’ mother tongue is used as a medium of instruction” [1]. For example, nonlanguage subjects such as mathematics or programming can be taught in English to French-speaking students. CLIL is alternative approach to communicative language teaching (CLT). One of the main goals of CLIL programs is to enhance the language competences of learners by increasing the time of exposure to a language without requiring extra time in the curriculum [2].
