CABRERA, María del Carmen Quiles. Educational innovation and immersion programs in the teaching of languages to schoolchildren: curricular proposal. Sér.-Estud. [online]. 2018, vol.23, n.49, pp.159-174. ISSN 2318-1982.  https://doi.org/10.20435/serie-estudos.v23i49.1140.

The paper aims to address the concept of educational innovation in the field of foreign language teaching. While talking about this concept in school we usually think about the use of ICT tools and the incorporation of digital scope, in language didactics there are other elements that are marked by innovation and the transfer of knowledge, so necessary in the current time. We return to the idea of ​​linguistic immersion but understand it from a current perspective in line with the requirements of the 21st century, for which the exchange and integration in the target language community, that is, in a homogeneous context is conceived as a basic pillar. In this regard, we will take as reference the project P.A.L.S., promoted by the educational institution Country-Cousins ​​School (UK) and awarded with an ElTons award. In this educational program, elements such as service learning, the concept of learning community and peer tutoring converge.

Palabras clave : educational innovation; teaching of foreign languages; learning-service.
