Abstract
Following an overall revision of the social circumstances and the philosophy behind a Eur opean integrated approach to education, that is an approach in which a non-vernacular language is used as the medium of instruction, this chapter focuses on a key question concerning language acquisition in formal instruction contexts: the role of Focus-on-Form (FoF) in otherwise communicative contexts when implementing educational approaches integrating content and language. On the basis of reported research findings with Canadian immersion programmes, the chapter analyses multilingual lessons in Catalonia, to find that virtually no focus-on-form can be found in teachers' input addressed to learners while interacting in CLIL classrooms.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
