by Autumn A. Arnett, Education Dive

A cross-curricular approach helps promote critical-thinking, problem-solving and creativity, and it will help prepare today’s students for jobs that do not exist, according to the latest installment of an eSchool News series looking at ways to better serve Gen Z students. Ditching the traditional textbook for a series of shorter articles — and using more visual materials like maps, photos and charts to teach the material — is also effective. Online curricula can help promote deeper investigation of a topic and help students make connections between different subjects on their own.
