Answer 1

CALP refers to a student's capacity to comprehend and articulate thoughts and ideas that are important to their academic performance in both oral and written forms. It refers to all we need to do with language to accomplish academic and cognitively demanding goals, such as explaining, analyzing, synthesising, disputing, and so on.' The Cummins Quadrant is a useful tool for building on Nice and CALP, especially in the longer term. It demonstrates how early in a lesson sequence, help for EAL learners can be provided through more context-embedded tasks with lower cognitive strain, with steady transition to more cognitively demanding tasks (the academic, CALPy ones).
