The book?s compelling firsthand narratives are icing on the cake, offering implementation examples and testaments to the many ways that disciplinary boundary crossing inspires and empowers both students and teachers.? ?Robert Martello, Professor, Olin College of Engineering, USA ?Integrative interdisciplinary learning has been a goal of higher education but is complex to understand and challenging to implement. Kindelan offers a comprehensive and highly readable overview that will guide educators as they reflect on these issues and plan and assess reform efforts taking place on individual campuses.? ?Nancy Budwig, Professor, Clark University, USA This book responds to challenging questions about holistic curricular realignment, especially how a more porous approach to higher education reduces the impact of a ?siloed? curriculum, lessens the tendency toward the fragmentation of knowledge, allows for the development of cross-disciplinary explorations, and promotes new approaches to knowledge and creativity through interdisciplinary integrative learning. In doing so, Kindelan advances discussions about integrative interdisciplinary education between STEM and the fields of performance and performance technologies that have been either overlooked or underdeveloped. Nancy Kindelan is Professor Emerita of Theatre at Northeastern University, Boston, USA, where she directed plays and taught numerous interdisciplinary courses, honors courses, script analysis and performance classes. She is the founding editor of the Palgrave Macmillan book series The Arts in Higher Education. 410 0$aThe Arts in Higher Education 606 $aArt$xStudy and teaching 606 $aPerforming arts 606 $aTheater 606 $aEducation, Higher 606 $aScience$xStudy and teaching 606 $aTechnical education 606 $aEducation$xCurricula 606 $aCreativity and Arts Education 606 $aTheatre and Performance Arts 606 $aHigher Education 606 $aScience Education 606 $aEngineering and Technology Education 606 $aCurriculum Studies 606 $aEducació STEM$2thub 606 $aEducació superior$2thub 606 $aArts de l'espectacle$2thub 608 $aLlibres electrònics$2thub 615 0$aArt$xStudy and teaching. 615 0$aPerforming arts. 615 0$aTheater. 615 0$aEducation, Higher. 615 0$aScience$xStudy and teaching. 615 0$aTechnical education. 615 0$aEducation$xCurricula. 615 14$aCreativity and Arts Education. 615 24$aTheatre and Performance Arts. 615 24$aHigher Education. 615 24$aScience Education. 615 24$aEngineering and Technology Education. 615 24$aCurriculum Studies. 615 7$aEducació STEM 615 7$aEducació superior 615 7$aArts de l'espectacle 676 $a378.125 676 $a378.1701 700 $aKindelan$b Nancy$01261152 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 912 $a9910616397003321 996 $aSTEM, Theatre Arts, and Interdisciplinary Integrative Learning$92929648 997 $aUNINA
