Bridging the Gap: Investigating the Effectiveness of Content and Language Integrated Learning (CLIL) with Translanguaging and Trans-semiotizing Pedagogy in Nursing Education The proposed study will investigate the impact of CLIL on university students’ content and language development in EMI nursing education. The CLIL pedagogy in the study will draw upon recent theoretical development of translanguaging and trans-semiotizing which have been evidenced to promote content and academic learning and personal development in CLIL when culturally and politically defined communication system boundaries are allowed to be transcended. Results of the study will inform bilingual university education, nursing education and theory and practice of translanguaging and trans-semiotizing. Project Start Year: 2022, Principal Investigator(s): LIU, Yiqi |

Translanguaging and Trans-semiotizing Pedagogies in Content and Language Integrated Learning (CLIL): Multimodalities-Entextualisation Cycle as a Method The project aims to explore translanguaging (TL) and trans-semiotizing (TS) pedagogy in CLIL using Lin (2015)’s Multimodalities-Entextualisation Cycle (MEC), an emerging curriculum design framework for incorporating TL and TS in CLIL at two Hong Kong secondary schools. Semi-structured interviews will be conducted and classroom interaction will be recorded. The project stands to make significant contributions to theory and practice of CLIL by providing further insights in devising pedagogical approaches for CLIL in English as an Additional Language (EAL) contexts and enriching future teacher education.
