Working in an interdisciplinary manner is long pursued but a
difficult goal of science and mathematics education. The
interdisciplinarity of science and mathematics can occur when
connections between those disciplines are identified and developed.
These connections could be expressed in the educational policies,
curriculum, or in the science and mathematics teachers' educational
practices. Sometimes those connections are scarce, but in other
moments, full integration is achieved. Interdisciplinarity Between
Science and Mathematics in Education presents results of good
practices and interdisciplinary educational approaches in science
and mathematics. It presents a broad range of approaches for all
educational levels, from kindergarten to university. Covering
topics such as computer programming, mathematics in environmental
issues, and simple machines, this premier reference source is an
excellent resource for administrators and educators of both K-12
and higher education, government officials, pre-service teachers,
teacher educators, librarians, researchers, and academicians.
Twenty-first century classrooms are diverse in nature and
everchanging. Students enter classrooms with many experiences, both
positive and negative, that influence and affect their ability to
learn. More specifically, children who have experienced trauma
often struggle socially, emotionally, and academically.
Unfortunately, many educators are not adequately trained to
identify the signs of trauma in children. In fact, they may
misinterpret the outward behavioral manifestations of trauma as
other conduct disorders. Strategies and Methods for Implementing
Trauma-Informed Pedagogy is a critical reference book that helps
teachers and administrators identify manifestations of trauma in
children and explain the characteristics and classroom
interventions and resources that can aid educators in supporting
students who have experienced trauma. This text explains the
effects of trauma and the ways in which it manifests in children,
explores resources and community options to support children who
have experienced trauma, presents strategies to help students who
have experienced trauma to learn in the classroom, and teaches the
management of behaviors in positive ways to cultivate a community
of learners. Covering topics such as positive behavioral
interventions and supports (PBIS), racial trauma, and student
classroom behavior, this text is essential for classroom teachers,
teachers in training, school counselors, school psychologists,
preservice teachers, administrators, researchers, and academicians.
