9781452256603: Introduction to Interdisciplinary Studies

Synopsis

This comprehensive new introduction to interdisciplinary studies draws on recent advances in the field′s burgeoning literature on learning and assessment. It is the first book to present these foundational principles in a textbook designed specifically for the introductory course. The book introduces students to the principles of the field, prepares them to produce quality work, and facilitates their working with topics, problems, or themes that span multiple disciplines. Its approach is succinct, conceptual, and practical.

Review

This text is comprehensive in approach, yet broken into three major parts that are easy for students to follow and to use to build their own work (I especially like the "learning outcomes" for each chapter). Its strength is that it situates interdisciplinary studies from the perspective of an undergraduate. Author: Angela Hunter Published On: 2012-12-10

I would recommend this text to others. I find the book has more detail than the text I currently use and seems more appropriate as an introductory text given the level of students I normally teach in this course. It is a comprehensive and needed study of the literature of the field. Author: Pauline D. Gagnon Published On: 2012-12-10

I am very likely to recommend this book. Our department continues to look for an introductory text that is friendly to undergraduate students, and this might fit the bill. The strengths of the book like in the emphasis on interdisciplinarity as an activity/process, the explanation of historical context, and the combination of theory and practice. Author: Andrew T. Arroyo Published On: 2012-12-10

This book is comprehensive. The authors provide thoughtful support for the main ideas and ‘unpack’ technical and complex ideas. The use of examples and end of chapter exercises is consistent with learning theory. The integration of cognitive theory into the early chapters is a strength. Similarly, pointing out areas of interdisciplinary work that are contested strengthens the legitimacy of this work. Author: Jeannie Brown Leonard Published On: 2012-12-10
