teaching across curriculum interdisciplinary teaching

Brad Baum on 22 Sep 10

I found this article/website to be fairly interesting. It provides some suggestions for interdisciplinary teaching, or teaching across the curriculum. I think that it is important for students to have some type of association between all of the classes they are taking. This might be difficult to do, especially in high school, but it is certainly something to think about.
