Content and Language integrated learning is
a dual-focused educational approach in
which an additional language is used for the
learning and teaching of both content and
language. That is in the teaching and
learning process, there is a focus not only on
content, and not only on language. Each is
interwoven, even if the emphasis is greater
on one or the other at a given time.
(Coyle, Hood and Marsh (2010, p.1; quoted from Liz Dale
and Rosie Tanner “CLIL Activities” CUP, 2012, p.3).
Enrichment of Foreign language syllabi with additional classroom hours:
instead of teaching a foreign language 2 hours a week for two years
the syllabi of all institutes of the Polytechnic University were changed
in favor of enhancing linguistic training: 4 hours a week for 4 years.
Professionally-oriented lectures in English are to
be obligatory for third-year students
Introduction of an elective course for international examination
(IELTS) preparation for fourth-year students
Course objective is preliminary terminology introduction as means of preparing students for professionally-oriented lectures in English. Second-year students majoring in technical fields of knowledge should be ready for the perception of lectures in technical disciplines taught in English at the third year.
Competences are to be acquired in the field of professionally oriented foreign language and cross-language communication in the professional sphere.
Target audience – students of Russian universities studying technical disciplines through the English language
Form of studies – one term (fourth), full-time
Number of classroom hours – 72 (4 hours a week)
Teachers of the course - specialists in teaching English for special purposes
At the end of the course students have to take an exam.

You were short of time and decided to use machine-translated text for the class. Compare the original text to its machine-translated versions and edit (отредактируйте) the latter in pairs, pointing out the mistakes. Which translation is better – that of American (Google) or Russian (Promt) program?
(Original text)
That does not sound too tough to implement, does it? And, after all, one of the most refreshing things about the Web is how it encourages people without formal computer science backgrounds to program. So why not build your Internet bank on a transaction system implemented by an English major who has just discovered Perl? Because you still need indexing.
(GOOGLE translation) Это звучит не слишком сложно реализовать, не так ли? И, в конце концов, один из самых освежающих
вещей о Веб - как это побуждает людей без официального информатики фоны для программирования. Так почему бы не создать свой интернет-банк в системе транзакций, реализуемого английский майор, который только что обнаружил Perl? Потому что вам все еще нужно индексацию.
(PROMT translation) Это не кажется слишком жестким, чтобы осуществить, не так ли? И, в конце концов, одна из самых
освежающих вещей о Сети - то, как это поощряет людей без формальных предпосылок информатики к программе. Итак, почему бы не построить Ваш Интернет полагаются на операционную систему, осуществленную английским майором, который только что обнаружил Perl? Поскольку Вам все еще нужна индексация.
