She has extensive experience in CLIL research and has published widely on her areas of interest. In particular, she has been involved in conceptualising integration and the challenges it poses for the taken-for-granted notions of language, content and their learning, as well as in exploring CLIL from classroom interaction perspectives. Her current interests include exploring knowledge-building practices from a disciplinary literacy perspective and as a multisemiotic endeavour. She is well networked internationally and is leading a WG on conceptualising disciplinary literacies as part of COST Action CLIL Network for Languages in Education: Towards bi- and multilingual disciplinary literacies, chaired by professor Julia Hüttner.view less
