Interdisciplinary educational turn

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 Kunzli David, Anna Maria Loffredo, Hans-Joerg Rheinberger, and others
