Está basada sobre todo en la experiencia práctica a la hora de diseñar unidades y
conversaciones con expertos y compañeros. También he tenido en cuenta la teoría de las 4 Cs
de Do Coyle, expuesto en numerosas publicaciones como por ejemplo: Coyle, D., Hood, P. and
Marsh, D., 2010. Content and Language Integrated Learning. Cambridge University Press.
