CLIL is an "umbrella term" as it includes several ways of teaching in which content is taught using a foreign language.
Those that are mainly inspired in content are:
Sheltered Instruction Observation Protocol (USA)
Cognitive Academic Language Learning
Cross-curricular Language Teaching

CLIL takes into account the integration of learning (content and cognition) and language learning (communication and culture) : The 4Cs Framework (Coyle 1999).
CLIL involves learning to use language appropriately whilst using language to learn effectively.
It is built on the following principles:
- Content matter is not only about acquiring knowledge and skills but about students creating their own learning and understanding and developing skills (personalized learning)
- Content is related to learning and thinking (cognition), to enable the learner to create their own interpretation of content.
- Thinking processes (cognition) need to be analysed for their linguistic demands.
- Learning through the language that is related to the learning context, students reconstruct the content.
- Interaction in the learning context is key to learning.
