Resumen
El presente Trabajo de Fin de Grado (TFG) se centra en un tema candente en el ámbito de la enseñanza de lenguas extranjeras: la preparación del profesorado AICLE (Aprendizaje Integrado de Contenidos y Lenguas Extranjeras). Su principal objetivo es identificar las necesidades actuales del profesorado en formación y en servicio para avanzar con éxito en el desafío de la enseñanza bilingüe, así como también corregir las carencias encontradas ofreciendo posibles soluciones para equipar al profesorado con las herramientas necesarias en el campo de AICLE. Para lograr este objetivo general, el TFG se ha dividido en siete secciones principales. En primer lugar se presentan las características del enfoque AICLE, así como sus ventajas e inconvenientes; luego se revisan las principales competencias y roles requeridos para el profesorado AICLE; posteriormente se mencionan las principales acciones formativas de profesorado que han sido adoptadas para enseñar AICLE; y se concluye identificando las principales necesidades en la formación del profesorado en este terreno, proporcionando en la última sección una lista con posibles soluciones para contrarrestar las carencias.
The present BA dissertation focuses on a burning issue in the current foreign language teaching scenario, namely, teacher training for CLIL (Content and Language Integrated Learning). Its chief goal is to identify the current necessities of pre-and in-service teachers in order to successfully step up to the challenge of bilingual teaching, and also to redress the lacunae detected by offering possible solutions to equip teachers with the tools they need in the CLIL arena. In order to achieve this overarching goal, the dissertation is divided into seven main sections. It initially expounds on the characteristics of the CLIL approach, as well as on its pros and cons; it then reviews the main teacher competences and roles required within the CLIL enterprise; it subsequently glosses the main teacher training actions which have been set in place for CLIL education; and it concludes by identifying the main teacher training needs on this front, providing a list of potential solutions in the final heading to counteract these shortcomings.
