THE ASSOCIATION FOR

SUPERVISION AND
CURRICULUM DEVELOPMENT
APPROACHES (2004) PRESENTS THREE
APPROACHES TO
TO INTEGRATION AND THESE ARE
MULTIDISCIPLINARY,
INTEGRATION INTERDISCIPLINARY AND
TRANSDISCIPLINARY.

MULTIDISCIPLINARY APPROACH
02
It focuses primarily on different disciplines. Teachers, who

employ this approach, may create standards from the disciplines
within a theme. There are many different ways to create a
multidisciplinary curriculum, and they tend to differ in the level of
intensity of the integration effort. It can be recalled that the
previous Restructured Basic Education Curriculum (RBEC) is a
best depiction of a multidisciplinary approach The four disciplines
(Araling Panlipunan, Values Education, MAPEH and TLE) were
integrated along with a theme termed Makabayan as an
integrated subject served as a laboratory of life.
MULTIDISCIPLINARY APPROACH
02
Makabayan was a leaming area that stressed the development of

social awareness empathy and commitment for common good.
Grades in these four disciplines were usually computed to
comprise the general grade in Makabayan as a discipline. At the
end of the week, the four disciplines collaborated to design a
culminating activity along with the given theme that connected
these four discipline areas.
INTERDISCIPLINARY APPROACH
02
In this approach to integration. teachers organize and capsulize

the curriculum around common learning across disciplines to
emphasize interdisciplinary skills and concepts The disciplines are
identifiable, but they assume less importance than in the
multidisciplinary approach. For example. in teaching Filipino as a
discipline, the teacher hones students' language skills while
resorting to content and topics in Araling Panlipunan. Below is an
illustration of interdisciplinary structure. Therefore, there are
times that a teacher in Filipino teams up with a teacher In Araling
Pankipunan to teach a lesson in Araling Panlipunon while she
teaches the needed skills in the Filipino subject.
TRANSDISCIPLINARY INTEGRATION 02
In the transdisciplinary approach to integration, teachers design a

curriculum within student needs and concerns. Students develop
life skills as they apply disciplinary and interdisciplinary skills in a
real-life context. Two routes lead to transdisciplinary integration,
namely: project-based learning and negotiating the curriculum.

INTERCONNECTING THE THREE

APPROACHES
These approaches offer an excellent fit for standards through a
backward design process as teachers integrate standards-based planning
with effective teaching and learning practices. Thus, the multidisciplinary,
interdisciplinary, and transdisciplinary perspectives offer different maps to
begin the design process. Teachers can use any of the approaches at any
level of education in a single classroom or in a team approach.
Despite some differences in the degree and the intent of integration,

the three approaches share many similarities. As such, the centrality of
standards and the need for accountability bring the three approaches
closer together in practice (ASCD, 2004).

Methods of Curriculum
Integration
Anchored on approaches to
curriculum integration, there are
methods that are processed and
devised for this purpose.

2022 09
Other Types of
Integrated
Curriculum
There are different types of an
integrated curriculum
asmentioned by ASCD (2004):
2022 07
1. CONNECTED. This happens when topics surrounding

disciplines are connected, which allows students to
reviewandre-conceptualize ideas within a discipline. However,
it has its shortcomings because the content focus still remains
in one discipline.
2. SEQUENCED. This is observed when similar ideas are taught

together, although in different subjects; which facilitates
learning across content areas, but requires a lot of
communication among teachers of different disciplines.
2022 07
3. SHARED. This is when teachers use their planning to create

an integrated unit between two disciplines.
4. WEBBED. This reflects when a teacher plans to base the

subject areas around a central theme that will tend students to
see the connection within different subjects.
2022 08
Doing Curriculum Integration

in the Classroom
Chhabra (2017) posited that integrating curriculum in the
classroom includes combining different subject areas and then,
teaching them in relation to a singular theme or an idea. Innovative
teachers and schools prefer integrating the curriculum in their
classrooms as it improves student achievement and leads to an
increase in student standardized scores. Placing student
achievement on top priority, an integrated curriculum utilizes the
mentioned three different approaches of integration.

BENEFITS OF INTEGRATED
CURRICULUM MODEL
1. It focuses on basic skills, content, and
higher-level thinking.
2. It provides a deeper understanding of
content.
3. It encourages active participation in
relevant real-life experiences.
4. It provides connections among various
curricular disciplines.
5. It accommodates a variety of learning
styles, theories and multiple intelligences.

NEW LITERACY INTEGRATION IN THE K-12
CURRICULUM

The new literacy can be integrated into the K to 12 curriculum

across subject areas as presented in the table below. However,
the integration of new literacy is not limited to the identified
disciplines, the given learning outcomes, suggested strategies and
assessment. In fact, each learning area can integrate as many new
literacies as possible depending on the lesson, the nature of the
subject and the objectives or intended outcomes. New literacy
integration can take place in as many disciplines as possible.
