The challenges of a complex and volatile world require solutions that reconcile divergent
perspectives and interests. In schools, interdisciplinarity has been integrated within curricula for decades, yet it is rarely
applied as a collaborative practice.
Communication between different fields of research is not enough. Without
meaningful collaboration, opportunities to connect are lost, and teachers and students fail to benefit from the experience
of lived interdisciplinarity.
A new periodical, entitled EDU:TRANSVERSAL, presents the latest findings of national
and international transversal research as well as the state of the art of interdisciplinarity in didactics. The aim of this
annual publication is to stimulate a transversal turn in education.
- The first issue of a new periodical
of transversal research in education
- New national and international interdisciplinary research on didactics
- With
contributions by Christine Künzli David, Anna Maria Loffredo, Hans-Jörg Rheinberger, and others
