ABSTRACT
As we all know, learning does not take place in subject boxes and to become rounded citizens, capable of making decisions about complex issues, we need to be able to draw on all available sources, from all relevant disciplines. In today’s fast-changing society we need to be flexible and lateral thinkers and this requires ‘an approach to education which is socially critical, open to new and radical insights, prepared to leave outmoded practice behind and to pioneer new ways of being and learning’ (Hicks 1999).
