Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For a graduate course in Elementary or Middle School Methods, or as a supplement in these courses. Unique to this market, this book's philosophical and theoretical premises value interdisciplinary themes as vehicles for inquiry learning by students in upper elementary grades. It defines inquiry learning as a means for teachers and students to develop study topics into themes, formulate questions about the thematic content, find and engage various resources to explore questions, and take big ideas from their findings. The authors suggest ways that current and future teachers can apply the text's instructional ideas to discover their own personal styles of thematic curriculum development through interdisciplinary inquiry.

Book excerpt: Rooted in the work of community – school collaborations, this text focuses on connecting the rigors of the classroom with the ambiguity of lived community experience. Community-Based Transformational Learning (CBTL) draws on the increasing evidence that course-learning conducted in an applied, community setting, can positively transform students' professional and personal identity and creates new ways of thinking and working in university courses and pre-professional experiences. To illustrate the different ways to successfully implement community-based learning, examples are provided of experiences integrated in courses across multiple disciplines across an American university whose mission is focused on teaching. Topics covered include refugee and immigration transition issues, incarceration and health needs with international examples of community experiences from Jamaica, Korea and Belize. Qualitative and quantitative data depict how these experiences impact students and each chapter presents how community engagement has been established as an effective approach in the different disciplines, including computer science and sports management. The authors demonstrate how CBTL experiences can be transformative when students are provided a chance to connect the academic commitment to community aims, but also provides suggestions for overcoming challenges and pit-falls in developing these experiences.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Three visual metaphors introduce distinct vantage points for viewing music as a school subject: as a separate discipline with clearly defined boundaries that maintain its traditions and subject matter identity; as used instrumentally to address contemporary problems, softening its subject matter distinctions through melding and blending with other subjects; and as a permeable area of study that is both influenced by and in turn influences other areas of human experience. The metaphors suggest orientations to subject matter that are often mirrored in patterns of school organization or reform proposals. The chapter presents an argument for permeability that builds upon a strong subject matter orientation for music while enabling, even advocating, for its expansion into closely related realms of meaning. The chapter establishes the central premise for teachers drawn to an interdisciplinary perspective to music teaching and learning, taking shape and direction from this metaphor of permeability"--

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Inquiry Learning is an innovative, hands-on, and collaborative approach to student learning. The Inquiry Learning Model shifts the heavy cognitive lifting from the teacher to the student. Documents and artifacts are used to provoke deep analysis and hone critical-thinking skills as students work in teams to interpret and connect clues to solve a mystery. A detailed step-by-step methodology is provided as well as six multidisciplinary lessons. Lessons are suitable for collaborative teaching or stand alone in discipline specific classes. For example, Exploitation and Immortality: The Story of Henrietta Lacks, is a lesson that can be used in the science, social studies, English or math classroom, or a combination of any of these disciplines. In addition to the methodology and lessons, Teaching with Inquiry includes differentiation strategies to adapt lessons to all learners, suggestions for lesson use in multiple disciplines, and a variety of graphic organizers to help students organize, process, and summarize the information throughout the lesson.
