Content Educator SIG
The Content Educator Special Interest Group (CESIG) is a Special Interest Group within the Integrating Content & Language in Higher Education (ICLHE) association co-led by Magdalena Walenta (University of Warsaw, Poland) — EMERGE leader — and Amani Eltayb (Karolinska Institutet, Sweden).
CESIG brings together university educators who teach their disciplines through an additional language and recognize the need to integrate language-aware practices into disciplinary instruction. The group fosters collaboration between content experts and applied linguists, creating a shared space for exchanging experiences, research, and practical insights to strengthen ICLHE theory and practice.
We have members from all around the world, including Belgium, Brazil, Croatia, Germany, Italy, Poland, and Sweden. We represent hard sciences, engineering, and the humanities, with both non-linguistic and linguistic majors on board. And we are rapidly expanding!
This page will feature CESIG news, event announcements, & updates on ongoing initiatives – stay tuned!
