[SYMP47] Literacies in CLIL: subject-specific language and beyond

To ensure smooth communication and collaboration, here are some troubleshooting tips to address common issues:
  1. Check Internet Connection: Verify that you have a stable and reliable internet connection. Use a wired connection when possible, as it tends to be more stable than Wi-Fi. If using Wi-Fi, make sure you have a strong signal.
  2. Update the Browser or App: Ensure that you are using the latest version of the web browser. Developers frequently release updates to address bugs and improve performance.
  3. Clear Browser Cache: Sometimes, cached data can cause conflicts or issues. Clear the browser cache and cookies before joining the meeting.
  4. Test Audio and Video: Before the meeting, check your microphone and camera to ensure they are working correctly. If you are a speaker, you can click on "Start Practice Session" button test to ensure audio and video devices are functioning.
  5. Close Other Applications: Running multiple applications in the background can consume system resources and lead to performance issues. Close unnecessary apps to free up resources for the Dryfta meeting platform.
  6. Restart Your Device: If you encounter persistent issues, try restarting your computer or mobile device. This can help resolve various software-related problems.
  7. Use Supported Browsers: Ensure you are using a browser supported by the meeting platform. Recommended browsers: Chrome, Firefox, Edge, and Brave.
  8. Allow Necessary Permissions: Make sure the Dryfta meeting platform has the required permissions to access your microphone, camera, and other necessary features.
  9. Disable VPN or Firewall: Sometimes, VPNs or firewalls can interfere with the connection to the meeting platform. Temporarily disable them and see if the issue persists.
  10. Switch Devices: If possible, try joining the meeting from a different device to see if the problem is specific to one device.
  11. Reduce Bandwidth Usage: In cases of slow or unstable internet connections, ask participants to disable video or share video selectively to reduce bandwidth consumption.
  12. Update Drivers and Software: Ensure your operating system, audio drivers, and video drivers are up to date. Outdated drivers can cause compatibility issues with the Dryfta meeting platform.
  13. Contact Support: If none of the above steps resolve the issue, reach out to the platform's support team. They can provide personalized assistance and troubleshoot specific problems.
By following these troubleshooting tips, you can tackle many common problems encountered on Dryfta meeting platform and have a more productive and seamless meeting experience.

Exploring the literacy demands and coping strategies of science students in CLIL classrooms: A case study of teachers and students in Hong Kong classrooms

Oral Presentation[SYMP47] Literacies in CLIL: subject-specific language and beyond 10:15 AM - 01:15 PM (Europe/Amsterdam) 2023/07/21 08:15:00 UTC - 2024/07/21 11:15:00 UTC
Teaching science through English is a growing phenomenon around the world. In this presentation, I will discuss the latest research into CLIL and EMI instructions around the globe and the challenges that teachers and students face when learning science through English in many cultural contexts.  In particular, i will report a study in Hong Kong which explores the teaching and learning process in CLIL science classrooms (Physics, Chemistry, Biology). Drawing the multiple sources of data from semi-structured interviews, questionnaires and 34 hours video-recorded classroom observations of 19 teachers and 545 students, the analysis explored the patterns of classroom interactions (turn-taking, ratio of talk, language choices, question types) in local secondary schools. The teachers and students' perceptions on CLIL and EMI teaching and learning process including their views on EMI and CLIL, choices of classroom language, the language challenges, coping strategies will also be investigated. By providing an evidence-based, detailed analysis of authentic classroom interactions, this research hopefully shed light on ways for improving the quality of instructional practices in different CLIL classrooms worldwide.

Development of L2 disciplinary literacy: A multidimensional analysis

Oral Presentation[SYMP47] Literacies in CLIL: subject-specific language and beyond 10:15 AM - 01:15 PM (Europe/Amsterdam) 2023/07/21 08:15:00 UTC - 2024/07/21 11:15:00 UTC
        Bilingual education programmes have become popular worldwide in part because they are believed to facilitate second/foreign/additional language (L2) learning, often with English as the target L2. In such programmes, students learn content and L2 simultaneously, but a common difficulty they encounter is mastering disciplinary literacy in the L2. However, research exploring bilingual students' development of L2 disciplinary literacy remains scarce. Therefore, this paper analyses a corpus of biology examination essays produced by a stratified sample of students studying in English medium education (EMI) in Hong Kong (204 essays totalling 45,823 words) using Multidimensional Analysis Tagger (Nini, 2015). The multidimensional analysis shows that this sample generally produced texts containing features closely related to scientific exposition. This paper also compares the features of essays written by students at different levels of academic performance as measured by their examination scores. The results show that the essays produced by students with better scores were more similar to academic prose, consisted of denser and more abstract information and used more academic vocabulary, nominalisation, conjunctions, and passive voice. This study demonstrates a potential relationship between students' mastery of disciplinary literacy and their academic achievement, thereby having implications for pedagogy in bilingual education programmes.
