Interdisciplinary Course

Stanley Hoffmann recently began a process of phased retirement from his half century of teaching at Harvard University. One might be forgiven for not noticing. This year he launched a new interdisciplinary course on the war in Iraq and next year will offer a new undergraduate seminar on the French democratic tradition.

Interdisciplinary Course

This chapter provides a retrospective look at my experiences during an interdisciplinary course at an urban university. Course format and objectives allowed for a varied experience by combining multiple learning methodologies and opportunities. A focus is given to two class assignments that illustrate the process of integrating insights from disparate disciplines through critical thinking, creativity, and teamwork. Despite the variability and unpredictability of individual experience, the review provides evidence for the unique challenges and distinct advantages of interdisciplinary learning.
