Language as content and language for content: bridging the divide

As ever more students take international qualifications with lower language levels, many questions are asked: "How can you access my content if you don't already have the language?" and "How can I learn the language if I don't already understand the content?". This workshop presents research findings and explores ways to align the key stakeholders for effective language and content instruction.
