Thompson, Michael
English Journal, v86 n7 p98-102 Nov 1997
Describes how the popular TV show "X-Files" was used as a model to develop an in-depth semester-length project, in which 10th graders integrated history, math, science, and English as they worked in investigative teams to develop evidence dossiers, memos, and presentations following stringent requirements yet allowing students considerable freedom in how they worked on their topics.
