Integrated learning

In real life the problems cant be classified as physics, maths or history problems, rather we have to apply principles from various disciplines to

solve real-life problems. Therefore, working with/ through real life experiences give children an opportunity to experience

problems/possibilities in an integrated manner and more important it provides an opportunity to apply their learning in an integrated way.

Actually, it leads to an integration of knowledge and understanding in a very natural and organic way. Interdisciplinary method encourages thecritical thinking and combines different skills and ways of knowing that are unique to different academic disciplines, subjects or domains. More

than that, the children can use these skills in a meaningful context. Kids learn in different ways and they have their own learning styles as they

attempt to acquire new knowledge. They were born in a different world than us and were exposed to different sources of knowledge. The best

thing we can do is to watch and guide them, as much as possible, in this process. When done well, interdisciplinary learning eliminates the

fragmentation and the learning of isolated skills. It allows students to access a particular theme from different entry points as they work with a

range of sources of information and perspectives; it also allows teachers to create interesting and rich methods of assessment.

ObjectiveProjects are intended to increase student motivation by engaging students in real work with authentic purpose, and they often require students

to address a problem using creative and critical thinking. The experience of doing things with hands is an important step in the learning process

of a child. It gives a child an opportunity to engage all her/his senses i.e. engaging herself/himself as a whole. And experience followed by

reflections and sharing helps in building new connections and understanding, which leads to a better internalization of the whole experience by

the childand it further develops her/his capacity to take new actions. Children are individuals with their own style and pace of learning. They

have their own preferred entry points into the learning cycle and they go with their own pace through the four stages of learning. They also have

their own preferred way of expression of what they have learnt. Its important that school acknowledges and respects the dive rsity of the

learning styles among children and also the differential pace of learning and therefore, provides room for children to remain different.

Methodology

The students will have 1 project during the entire session.

Each Section will be divided into 5 groups (8students per group) by the CT.

Care should be taken that the girls are distributed equally amongst the five groups. If due to some reason a particular group has only girl

she can be shifted to another group and one group can remain an all boys group.

Each group will have a mix of students of all intelligence levels. The list will be countersigned by all subject teachers taking the particular section and displayed on the bulletin board.

The project will be initiated on the 3rd Friday (period allotted to CT) of April 2012.

The guidelines and the format of the integrated project will be displayed on the bulletin board of each class.

CT will introduce the same in his/her respective section.

Each subject will carry a weightage of 20 marks which will be recorded by the subject teacher in her/his FA1and FA3 evaluation sheet.

The deadline for the integrated project will be August 10, 2012/February 8, 2013. If it is a holiday then the very next day.

The subject teachers taking a particular section will facilitate in the process.

All the work, subject wise has to be an in class,in school activity.

The subject teachers involved in the project (it may involve the language, social science and mathematics teachers), if all the four subject

components are chosen must get together and prepare a detailed plan for the project on the basis of notes given here.

Based on the topic, a combination of modes listed under the four subjects could be chosen. It should be ensured that the project reflects all

the four subject areas but at the same time does not become too heavy or difficult for the students. The subject teachers should sit with

each group and help them draw out an outline of their project.

Sources and Resources for collecting information, material and for research may be identified.

Allotment of Topics:

Given below is an example of the manner in which the topics can be selected.

The entire list of the topics will be made into chits separately.

On the third Saturday of the session (April 2012) during ACR meeting the ACR will make the respective class teachers of her/his

particular class draw the chits by lots.

The chits received by the respective class teachers will be distributed in her/his particular class among the group leader selected on the

second Friday after the groups have been made.
