Discipline-based vs. Integrative education

The newer trend is the concept of integrative STEM education. It includes the teaching and learning practices when the subjects are purposefully integrated (M. Sanders, 2006; VTSOE, 2007).

When planning integrative curriculum, one field may be the dominant base discipline or all may be planned to be more equally represented (J. G. Wells, 2006).
