• Using Relational Reasoning to Learn About Scientific Phenomena at Unfamiliar Scales (2016, background): “While learning from connected and integrated materials leads to improved retention, critical thinking, and problem solving (e.g., Ellis and Fouts 2001), US curriculum has unfortunately been characterized as being fractured and incoherent (Schmidt et al. 2002).”
• Elementary Teachers Integrate Music Activities into Regular Mathematics Lessons: Effects on Students' Mathematical Abilities (2013, unknown): “1 Ellis and Fouts (2001) posited that interdisciplinary education can not only improve students’ higher-order thinking skills and motivation for learning, but also provide opportunities to understand knowledge from multiple perspectives and assist in the transfer of learning (Erickson, 1998).”
