Interdisciplinary Learning Is
Purposeful
The purpose of interdisciplinary learning gives
direction and meaning to students’ efforts. It points to
the problem or issue that students will examine, making
its relevance visible. Having a clear purpose for inquiry
and work (solving a particular problem, explaining a
phenomenon) enables teachers and students to discern
between more and less relevant disciplines and
connections

Disciplines
A strong disciplinary grounding in students’ work does not
mean that students must “fully master” each discipline
before integrating views. Rather, students are encouraged
to master particular concepts and modes of thinking in two
or more disciplines that are relevant to meet the
established purpose of their work.

Integration is at the heart of interdisciplinary work.
In multidisciplinary or thematic approaches to
learning, students examine a topic through distinct
disciplinary perspectives but do not seek to make
connections across such perspectives. Students are
encouraged to bring together knowledge,
understanding, skills and attitudes learned in
different disciplines or subject groups to deepen and
enrich their understanding.
How is interdisciplinary
learning planned?
Interdisciplinary learning is most effective when
it is tailored to and meets learners’ needs.
To do this, practitioners might combine
curriculum areas within a theme or context
and at the same time ensure that the
learning is based on clearly identified next
steps.
