OBSERVATIONS

Socio-cultural Issues: Can be particularly relevant to border regions

Educational Level Issues: Particularly suitable for vocational and professional education levels

Learner Issues: Used alongside activating interest in trans-national or cross-linguistic working life

Past CLIL/Language Activities: Heavily linked to track record of previous CLIL/language studies

CLIL-linked Activities: Particularly suitable for trans-national ICT projects, student mobility (virtual and/or physical), and exchange (teachers or students)

For example, in a vocational or professional programme which specifically introduces key communication features directly linked to types of work environment
