Comunicazione, mediazione e argomentazione in classe CLIL

Termini e definizioni nel discorso didattico

This paper aims at examining classroom communication in a CLIL context, through a reflection on ways of knowledge transmission and on the role played by argumentation in classroom interaction. The research is based on a corpus of CLIL classroom interactions in upper secondary schools in Italy and focuses on the analysis of the treatment of specialised terminology and on the use of definitions in classroom discourse. The study has a dual purpose: a mainly descriptive purpose, represented by a qualitative and interpretative analysis of the CLIL teacher’s discursive strategies of definition in CLIL classroom interactions, combined with the aim of offering methodological and operational suggestions for training and teaching.
