Approaching integrated studies within the classroom assists students to combine understanding, knowledge and skills within or across subject zones in meaningful ways (Gordon, 2014). The reason why Australians schools have integrated studies and curriculum areas within student’s education is because it assists students with a better understanding of the information being given to them but also allowing students to process the information in the real-world setting.

Curriculum method that decisively combines skills, knowledge, values and attitude within and across areas to enhance a better understanding of main ideas. Curriculum integration takes place when subjects of the curriculum combine and link together in meaningful ways for both teachers and students (Forgarty,1991).

Curriculum integration can be perceived as a lead up to learning and teaching which is built on practicality and philosophy. Which be broken down into two parts – Spontaneous or planned.

Even though integrated studies and the curriculum integration has shown to be a success strategy in Australia educations and classrooms, the process of this procedure has roughly challenges and limitations for schools as well as the teachers. This can sometimes be difficult for teachers to follow through with the integrated studies as well as the interdisciplinary approach in their class, with the pressure from teachers to not only take notes but cover all aspects from the Australian Curriculum (2014) which can lead to affecting teacher’s confidence and judgement within teaching. Interdisciplinary approach (see figure 2) are overlapping and rearranged ideas and developing designs and patterns (Forgarty,1991).

It allows flexibility – Teachers can design for the progress of the main skills and knowledge that excel individuals’ subjects and strands.

Furthering their prior knowledge and experiences they already have or know – Making meaningful connections with subjects to support students to enhance their diverse experiences and understandings to ensure further learning.

Relating to the real world – Organising curriculum in a holistic manner, replicates the real world and how students acquire within their homes and community.

Learning in the Twenty first century involves the process of creative and critical thinking as well as the measures for teachers to concentrate on teaching students as individuals or in groups. This is carried out by the teachers in schools, by using the different types learning methods to cater for the many different acquiring styles and emerging constructive thoughts inside the students and their education.

Robin Forgarty’s (1991) ten ways to combine curriculum studies gives schools multiple types of models to use to build a strong foundation to developing curriculum to help students make important connection within their learning. Teachers who utilise these different types of models within their teaching over time will progress a very successful integrated curriculum throughout their teaching amongst the students learning. (see figure 1).
