The 21st century has witnessed various learning trends that challenge the traditional dichotomy between academic and everyday learning. This book explores these trends, arguing that we can bridge this gap to revolutionise education for the benefit of learners and the betterment of the real world.
Taking a comprehensive perspective that spans the educational spectrum from kindergarten to tertiary and adult education, the book presents an integrated matrix of pedagogies that foster the integration of academic and everyday learning. This matrix encompasses key learning areas, including languages, mathematics, science, technology, personal, social, and humanities education (PSHE), and the arts. The book emphasises incorporating real-life contexts, practical applications, and relevant skills into academic learning while recognising the value of theory-practice integration. Drawing on examples, case studies, and best practices, the book demonstrates the successful implementation of these approaches.
This book will appeal to scholars of educational theory, learning and instruction, and curriculum studies.
