Publisher's Synopsis
This second edition of Cross-curricular learning 3-14 explores the key practical and theoretical issues underpinning cross-curricular teaching and learning. Using an accessible research-informed approach strongly rooted in the realities of teaching it introduces the scientific and educational evidence supporting the introduction of cross-curricular approaches alongside techniques to put the theories into practice, including important preparatory aspects such as planning and assessment.
Revised and updated to reflect current curriculum policy and contemporary research, this second edition includes:
- an overview of current curriculum developments, and the implications for cross-curricular approaches
- updated coverage of cross-curricular planning and best practice
- a range of new case studies across the 3-14 age range exploring the practical application of cross-curricular and creative approaches to teaching
- expanded coverage of sociological and social psychological theories of learning.
This book is essential reading for students on teacher education courses across the 3-14 age range, and practising teachers considering cross-curricular approaches to learning.
