Call for papers on cross-curricular teaching in subject education – knowledge and Bildung in a global world
Topics often considered in cross-curricular teaching are how knowledge and generic competencies relate to school subjects. What knowledge and skills will the students need for future challenges in a global world? In what ways can schools and classrooms be(come) sites for the processes of Bildung? How can such processes be realized by combining different school subjects and how can teachers and students work with topics related to an open and undefined future?
