CLIL e intercomprensione: due approcci compatibili al servizio della linguistica romanza

Abstract

Intercomprehension (IC), that is, a multilingual approach that aims to improve users’ receptive skills in various similar languages, so that everyone can express themselves in their own language while understanding the other's, has proven its effectiveness especially at the university level. On the other hand, CLIL is now a well-established approach in secondary schools, but much less so used in universities where courses are often implemented in English but without the support of CLIL methodology. This paper reflects on the reasons behind the success of each approach, and it proposes an integrated CLIL + IC approach through the few existing or upcoming projects.
