Abstract :
In scholar curriculum, the integration of contents from different learning areas has been always a challenging issue, but with very few practical experimentations. This paper reports an experimental project of teaching natural science, mathematics, and computer science (technology education) in the first level of the Italian secondary school, by means of a common integrate path based on practical experiments. We show effectiveness of the conceived interdisciplinary approach by means of a case study in a network of thirty classrooms of 11 years old scholars.
