Abstract
The purpose of this chapter is twofold: on the one hand, to search for a meaningful form of interdisciplinary integration in order to enhance students’ collaborative, associative, and creative learning; and on the other hand, to highlight the essential role of interaction in integrative teaching. Our focus is on a program to develop interdisciplinary integration in teacher education, by which we mean the activities that start with teaching the basics of separate subjects and continues to search for associations between the core of one subject in the content of another subject.
