    An integrated curriculum teaches the same skills across subjects, provides activities suitable for a range of abilities, and facilitates connections between different areas of learning. It views education as a meaningful whole rather than isolated skills, and can integrate subjects either closely related, through big ideas, or fully across disciplines through real-world projects.

    Integrated Curriculum Definition

    As we look to educate the students who will become our next leaders, doers, and
    thinkers, we have to recognize that we live in a globally integrated world with fast-
    advancing technology and knowledge that can come from anywhere. There isn’t a
    single way to integrate subjects, as it depends on the teachers, learners, and
    environment. So how do you define "integrated curriculum?" There are some common
    features:

     The same skills are taught across different subject areas.


     Activities have a low floor and high ceiling, providing for a range of interests and
    abilities.
     Experiences are designed to facilitate connections across the curriculum.
     Learning is thought of as a meaningful whole, with critical and creative thinking
    given closer attention than isolated skills.

    This can be implemented at a more surface level with intradisciplinary integration from
    two closely related subjects within the same broad discipline, for example, exploring
    properties of proteins in both chemistry and biology. A deeper approach would be to
    incorporate big ideas such as creativity or citizenship across different classes. One
    could also implement a fully transdisciplinary curriculum, which starts with real-world
    projects, for example improving local pollution or starting a business, and guides
    student exploration based on personal interests.
