| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
This study explores elementary and secondary social studies curricula from the perspective of differentiation and integration of school subjects. I examined examples of curricula and lesson plans in the United States and Japan, based on three types of curriculum frameworks. The first one is the integration of social studies and other subject areas, such as literacy (ELA); the second one is the integration of some subjects within social studies, for example, history and civics; and the third one is the complete differentiation of subjects. Based on the analyses of the examples, I examined the progression from elementary to secondary levels. The results demonstrate various ways to design social studies curricula and lesson plans.
