Interdisciplinary Pedagogy in Theory and Practice

About this book

This book explores interdisciplinary university teaching in both theory and practice, drawing on the experience and expertise of educators from across the social sciences and humanities. Based around pedagogical theory and concrete practical examples and experiences from the classroom, the book contributes with a multiplicity of knowledge to the growing appetite for interdisciplinary initiatives at universities.

The book is unique in offering depth and breadth of analysis of one of the most prominent experiments of interdisciplinary social science and humanities education in Britain, namely LSE100: The LSE Course, an interdisciplinary course taken by all undergraduates across disciplines at the London School of Economics and Political Science (LSE). The course has three streams, each addressing a major challenge of our time: The climate crisis, fairness, and artificial intelligence (AI).

The book is of interest to academics, educators, and university leaders curious about developing and implementing interdisciplinary education in their own contexts, as well as to anyone interested in understanding the dynamics and challenges at stake in interdisciplinary educational settings. Finally, it appeals to students seeking to broaden their understanding of the social sciences beyond their own discipline.
