Abstract:
Organizing information in a rigid system does not fit the necessity of shaping a general culture with the pupils de declared objective of any educational system. The contribution of each school subject is expressed not by what is specific to it, but by what it shares with other school subjects, what is generalized and transferable. It is on the basis of this general culture that we can achieve profound specializations with efficient and lasting results for the spiritual and material life of the individual and of the society which supports and integrates hem. A first situation which must be solved theoretically is to specify the objective and to define interdisciplinary. According to the dictionary of pedagogy, interdisciplinary is report of interpretation (cooperation- coordination) among the school subjects, among the structures of the educational content corresponding to the modern organization of the type of institute of education. Interdisciplinary does not mean only dealing with a phenomenon simultaneously from the points of view of several, but also a integrated and integral approach of this each science bringing its own conceptual system, way of thinking and specific methods of research and representation. In order to achieve a good interdisciplinary some exigencies have to be observed: the teacher should have a thorough general cultural, the teacher should know the methodology of his particular discipline well but also the methodology of the other subjects in the curriculum area, the pupils should be aware of the existence of interdisciplinary of the school subjects, the achieving of some programs with themes of an interdisciplinary character. Education should train young people for life, the process of learning should be pleasant and efficient at the same time, the contents of tomorrow`s education will admit and incorporate new dimensions and components imposed upon it by the evolution of the society and the problems of the contemporary world. The multidimensional content (physics, chemistry, biology in our case) should be put in order so as to prevent dispersion and overloading. An interdisciplinary approach supposes analysis and selection, team work and perspective orientation.
