Compare and contrast interdisciplinary teaching and thematic teaching

What will be an ideal response?


Both interdisciplinary and thematic teaching involve long-range plans that incorporate a variety of learning activities, materials, and content-related concepts. The primary difference is that interdisciplinary teaching crosses disciplinary boundaries, as when two or more teachers cooperatively plan an interdisciplinary unit. Thematic teaching may be interdisciplinary, but teachers can also plan themed units within a single content area.
