Item description from seller

This collection was written by educators who are engaging in multi- and interdisciplinary education and are led by curiosities encompassing the collaborative nature of cognitive and kinesthetic engagement and awareness.The chapters are designed as sources for inspiration, replication and adaptation. They are a place to start or continue. Each chapter, in varying modalities, addresses interdisciplinary course development and implementation in institutions of higher education. The common themes that emerge in the collection include navigating administrative systems and solving the challenges encountered when crossing departments or colleges, whether it be regarding listing of courses or the intricacies of course load on each professor.Many chapters also provide detailed information on the nuts and bolts of the specific course or courses taught, including syllabi, lesson examples and both formal and informal assessments implemented. Multiple case studies are included in this collection, with many chapters providing specific examples of students' work.Contributors candidly offer discussions of failures and successes of their interdisciplinary collaborations, be it in course design, lesson planning or complications brought in by unforeseen pandemics. Most chapters end with a section entitled 'Lessons learned', where experiences from the field provide opportunities for growth and continued exploration.Readers can follow the book from cover to cover or dip in, finding the chapters that serve a particular project or teaching endeavour. The varying writing styles and topics are in direct relationship with the exact nature of the inspiration for this text. The over-arching themes of collaboration (diverse backgrounds, ideas and skill sets, multidisciplinarity and interdisciplinarity) are the consistent touchstones that create a thematic self-guided journey of exploration through the book.The chapters offer readers guidance and encouragement to implement some of the approaches described and inspiration to forge their own paths in the world of multi- and interdisciplinary teaching and research. The depth and breadth of collaborative possibilities are exciting, and the editors' goal is to spark further experimentation.    An excellent and practical resource for any educator hoping to teach his or her subject matter through an interdisciplinary approach and for all courses revolving around topics of pedagogy. The key audience will be graduate students and teachers in all stages of education from primary to higher education.
