Creativity, critical thinking and community-oriented learning have
taken on new dimension and relevance in education. As a result,
many academicians feel that current curricula need to be
re-designed with the challenges of today’s global landscape in
mind. Integrated curricula rely heavily on interdisciplinary
approaches that encourage student engagement, self-awareness and
experiential learning. Providing practical advice based on
empirical examples, Integrative Curricula: A Multi-Dimensional
Approach to Pedagogy explores the phenomenon of integrative
curricula and its relevant issues. Emphasizing a need for
flexibility and, above all, a student-centered focus, chapters
discuss different theoretical frameworks and models utilized,
benefits gained and challenges encountered in the process of
curricula integration. They include case studies, policies and
other methods that have been implemented and adopted in
universities to enhance their teaching practices. Contributors also
address issues such as integrating interdisciplinary curricula and
building relationships across traditional subjects and learning
experiences. As integrative curricula provide a framework through
which a standard, meaningful benchmark can be applied to student
learning, so will Integrative Curricula: A Multi-Dimensional
Approach to Pedagogy act as a fundamental resource to facilitate,
advise and support higher education institutions in putting forward
practices that are most effective for teaching and, ultimately, the
benefit of student development.
