Research Abstract |
The meaning of the integrated study lies at nurturing "the zest for living", which could be thought as integrating competence of structuring, executing, and problem solving. As necessary characteristics which contents of the integrated study, should have, six conditions were proposed, that is, "problem-solving", "comprehensiveness", "sympathy/interaction among people", "developabilty", "intensity", and "practicality". And, the basic learning process of the integrated study would include following four stages: Stage 1. Forming problems, Stage 2. Solving problems, Stage 3. Expanding contents and to integrating them, and summarizing activities and sharing/exchanging information, Stage 4. Confirming and applying knowledge obtained through problem solving. We analyzed the contents of instruction in "culture of human movement" with aspects of "game (play) ", "ball", "movement", and "body". Then we developed a 30-hour program for upper grades in the elementary school level, following the basic model structure described above. In this program, the theme focused on "throwing" , arid children were asked to develop and solve problems in "bound-ball" and "dodge-ball".
