Abstract

Over the last two decades, the second language acquisition field has been influenced by new pedagogical approaches and innovative trends, which have reframed the principles of how foreign languages should be taught. The emergence of the task-based language teaching (TBLT) since the late nineties, and its increasing implementation, transformed it into one of the trendiest pedagogical approaches. Later, the dual-focused vision of the content and language integrated learning (CLIL) approach gained momentum in European countries, and it was included as an essential part of schools' curricula. Nowadays, although CLIL and task-based instruction are well established in educational contexts, the combined use of the two still produces doubts among teachers. In this chapter, a thorough exploration of the main pedagogical constituents of CLIL and TBLT is carried out to analyse their commonalities and set relationships between them. To sum up, this paper will convince bilingual teachers about implementing authentic and meaningful task-based experiences within their CLIL curricula.
