ICT uses language to develop and apply technical computing skills. Learners practise how to find, develop, analyse and present information, and they learn how to model situations, solve problems and evaluate their solutions. There are many opportunities for CLIL ICT teachers to support their learners’ understanding of key ICT concepts and skills through the use of physical objects, visuals, demonstrations and hands-on practice. It is these visual elements of the subject that makes ICT a good one for learners who are new to CLIL. However, since ICT lessons may often concentrate on technical skills or involve learners sitting silently behind a computer, the challenge for ICT teachers is to create opportunities for CLIL learners to think for themselves, to speak and to practise communicating in writing. ICT is ideal for cross-curricular work: learners can use the content of theirsubject lessons to carry out ICT tasks in another language. As they develop ICT knowledge and skills, CLIL learners can be taught how to think, talk and write like ICT specialists.

A language ecosystem describes a holistic environment that encourages and extends the learning and application of language beyond the classroom. While an ecosystem is a simple concept, there are a few things to keep in mind. Here are quick tips to get you started.

The concept of exploring is at the center of attention here for good reason. Your mission (should you choose to accept it) is to find and gather resources that are potential candidates for your language ecosystem. It is not unlike going shopping for furniture, in that you want to find items that will match your personal preference and lifestyle in a natural way. As you search for items to “add” to your ecosystem, you will want to consider how well they function in your life or home.

You might be wondering how one begins a search to find resources. I primarily use search engines, social media, streaming video, and music to look for resources that might work. I am not the only one, however, who has learned to keep an eye out for resources. Since inviting many of my own friends to learn a language with me, many people now send me links to things I might like.

Speaking of people, one of the most essential strategies in forming a language ecosystem is finding the right people to join you on your journey. I call this “forming a language learning network.” While fluent speakers are an excellent resource, I also find that fellow language learners, people who are learning the language just like me, are more patient conversation partners. Finally, I often find that people who share my same interests (say, French cooking, for example), can be excellent companions for listening and speaking practice.

Our world is changing rapidly and so are the needs and wants of our learners. Mobile phones and social media have become staples in students’ daily lives. Many work from home and value flexibility in when and where they learn. English has become an essential tool for international communication, and so have many transferable skills that are crucial to our learners’ employability in a landscape where new jobs and tasks are constantly being created.

It can be tricky to define ‘innovation’ and often, when we talk about innovations, it is easy to only focus on technological innovations. However, innovations go beyond technological advancements. In the world of English language teaching (ELT), innovation introduces new and original elements in methodology, design, content, and, of course, in technology. However innovative, technology shouldn’t be used for the sake of using the latest technology because innovation is about addressing and solving current challenges and offering fresh solutions. It is about adapting to changing needs and contexts and enhancing learning outcomes. It is about reimagining old ways of teaching and learning and attempting new pedagogies. In other words, innovation is about moving forward with the way we do things because it can make things more effective and more efficient for the educator and the learner.
