Course description

Integrated Studies encourages sophomore students to explore the richness and diversity of the world from an interdisciplinary and inquiry-based perspective. Through an inquiry-based study of world narratives using artifacts (novels; films; poems; primary source documents; short stories; and others); Integrated Studies integrates the disciplines of English; social studies; and art. Key questions about the human experience help unify the course by erasing disciplinary distinctions between social studies; English; and art; attempting to answer these key questions; students - and instructors - pursue a larger understanding of what it means to be human. Scheduled into a double period; students will earn honors credit for each discipline at the completion of the course. This Integrated Arts class is entirely project-based and co-taught by three teachers. This integrated course does not preclude students from additional Art courses.
