This book delves into the possibilities of interdisciplinary learning and integrated curriculum through the structuring and expressive powers of language. Teachers will find writers from every level who favor hands-on, inquiry-centered, holistic, discovery learning.
The fifteen chapters explore the issues of bridging the gap between the two cultures of science and humanities, demystifying science for learners, teaching students to construct and explain their own knowledge, integrating science and humanities with society, and creating a language base for learning. Imagine a school staffed by the teacher-writers of these essays, and then imagine the curriculum that they could create. You'll be astonished. 168 pp. 1993. Grades K–College. ISBN 0-8141-0210-7.
