Discipline-specific models of teaching and learning can underprepare students for the kinds of interdisciplinary collaboration that employers now expect. Although aware of these expectations and the need for change, many small colleges and universities have struggled to translate interdisciplinarity into programs and curricula that better serve today’s students.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Written by faculty engaged in the design and delivery of interdisciplinary courses, programs, and experiential learning opportunities in the small college setting, \u003ci\u003eThe Synergistic Classroom\u003c\/i\u003e addresses the many ways faculty can leverage their institutions' small size and openness to pedagogical experimentation to overcome the challenges of limited institutional resources and enrollment concerns and better prepare students for life and work in the twenty-first century. Taken together, the contributions in this volume invite reflection on a variety of important issues that attend the work of small college faculty committed to expanding student learning across disciplinary boundaries.\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003e\u003cdiv\u003eContents\u003cbr\u003e Introduction: Building Bridges in a Land of Colleges\u003cbr\u003e Corey Campion\u003cbr\u003e Part I: Teaching Across the Disciplines\u003cbr\u003e Chapter 1: The Anxiety of Interdisciplinary Teaching\u003cbr\u003e Aaron Angello\u003cbr\u003e Chapter 2: Challenging the Discipline: First-Year Seminars and the Benefits of an Interdisciplinary Model\u003cbr\u003e Paul D.
