Abstract

ABSTRACTWorking inductively from classroom research and guided by a Bakhtinian view of language, the author proposes a discourse-based theory of interdisciplinary connections. The article includes examples of four discursive resources individuals draw on to make interdisciplinary connections—content, propositions, ways of knowing, and classroom genres—with special focus on genres.
