My capstone project addressed interdisciplinary education. My target audience of high school teachers explored how creating thematic units across disciplines help create rigorous and relevant learning for students. During Phase I, Teachers created a plan to solve the problem of creating cross-curricular lessons to increase student engagement. In Phase II, Teachers and students engaged in the solution and participated in various lesson around the same central theme. Teachers and students were able to document their experience with interdisciplinary instruction through pre/post surveys, and student created products. As a result, students were able to see the connections between various classrooms and subject content and recognize and identify with rigorous and relevant lessons.
I submitted my abstract to a conference held by the International Journal of Arts and Sciences.

ReplyDeleteAnd the address of the site to where I submitted my project for presentation is up there before the weekly journal entries too...
DeleteMy presenter notes are there as well - I have no idea why they don't show up unless your scroll over them.
DeleteGreat project... one suggestion is that you might want to add a references/resources slide at the end... :-)
