What is the role of the humanities in the modern school? Should
geography, history, RE and Citizenship teachers remain faithful to
long-standing subject cultures and pedagogies? Or is there another
way to consider how the curriculum, and the notion of individual
subjects and teachers? pedagogy, could be constructed?
Drawing on case studies taken from a range of innovative
secondary schools, and interrogating the use of cross-curricular
approaches in UK schools, Cross-Curricular Teaching and Learning in
Humanities constructs a research based pedagogy with practical
steps for students and teachers as they consider how
cross-curricular approaches can be implemented in their own subject
areas.
Key features include:
- Clear theoretical frameworks for cross-curricular processes of
teaching and learning in the humanities
- Lively and engaging text that blends key issues with stories of
current practice
- An analysis of the use of assessment, enquiry, and pupil talk
as key components in building a cross-curricular approach to the
humanities
- Practical and reflective tasks that enable to reader to apply
their reading to day to day practice, alongside links to
professional standards
- Summaries of key research linked to suggestions for further
reading
- Professional development activities to promote cross-curricular
dialogue
Part of the Cross-Curricular Teaching and Learning in the
Secondary School series, this timely interdisciplinary textbook is
essential reading for all students on Initial Teacher Training
courses and practising teachers looking to holistically introduce
cross-curricular themes and practices in secondary Humanities
teaching.
