So, in education we can use the second meaning which includes various
academic subjects in one lesson.
Concept of integrated approach is combining components into one structured
system, however including one or more subjects or approaches. Integration in this
sense means using relevant ideas from many disciplines or approaches and grouping
it in one structurally and logically right order. Therefore, integration goes in several
directions:
1.
Intra disciplinary-
integration of concepts, knowledge, and skills within
individual
academic subjects;
2.
Inter disciplinary-synthesis of facts, concepts, and principles of two or more
disciplines;
3.
Tran disciplinary-synthesis of components of the main and additional content
of education.
Accordingly, we tend to think that all items can be combined. For example, in
the
biology lesson, students are introduced to the concept of leaves “linear” and
“ovate”. In art classes, this concept is fixed in drawing branches of linear and ovate
leaves, in technology lessons in the corresponding modeling, while the concept is not
just duplicated, but associatively fixed. In English lesson it all combines in one and
present as essay or project-work about “Autumn leaves” according to plan.
However, the main feature of an integrated lesson is that such a lesson is based
on a single subject, which is the main one. The rest of the subjects integrated with it
help to study its connections, processes and the possibility of applying the acquired
knowledge in practice. The structure and content of the lesson does not change. One
of the main functions of integration in education is properly organized learning
conditions in the classroom, stimulating analytical activity of students, developing the

ability to transfer knowledge from one industry to another, which contributes to the
development of metacognitiveness in students.
Generally approach consists of:
Objectives and goals;
Efficient use of systematically “integrated” parts.
Activities based on successful assimilation of the
material and adoption by
students. Teacher-initiated and students-initiated activities.
Сonducting lessons for the whole class, a small group and individual
experience(face-to-face, one-to-one, pair and individual)
Train students to connect, generalize, and transfer knowledge to different areas
of knowledge, as well as to real-world problem-solving situations.
Provide more comprehensive learning
that enriches cultural and
communication skills in the community.
Facilitate collaborative learning to encourage students to solve problems
independently.
Support students in understanding and formulating what they have learned.
At this point, we can claim that integrative
approach contributes to the
development of syncretic thinking, which means that the student perceives the essence
of reality holistically, without differentiating their details in the entirety of shapes,
colors, sounds and smells.
