Rethinking Curriculum Integration by Expanding the Debate.
Pena, Robert A.; Brown-Adams, Candace; Decker, Shannon
Research in Middle Level Education Quarterly, v22 n4 p25-40 Sum 1999
Analyzes discussions on curriculum integration in terms of rationales for integration and effects of combining curriculums in middle schools. Finds that curriculum integration describes combining ideas and generating knowledge; considers pro and con opinions. Suggests that discussions represent a struggle for control over what is taught in public schools and that middle school educators' perspectives are generally not included. (JPB)
