  1. Social Studies Curriculum Integration in Elementary Classrooms: A Case Study on a Pennsylvania Rural School.Julie Ollila & Marisa Macy - 2019 - Journal of Social Studies Research 43 (1):33-45.
    Since the advent of the No Child Left Behind Act of 2001, classrooms in the U.S. have experienced a steady decline in the amount of time teachers spend on social studies, with the elementary grades suffering the highest level of decline. There is currently a need to understand how teachers perceive the problem of insufficient social studies instruction time and gain their perceptions of curriculum integration as a solution. The purpose of the qualitative case study was to explore how 14 (...)

  • Preparing elementary pre-service teachers for social studies integration in an alternative field placement.Sara B. Demoiny - 2020 - Journal of Social Studies Research 44 (1):51-59.
    As social studies receives less instructional time in elementary classrooms, elementary pre-service teachers (PSTs) observe little social studies instruction in their field placements. Social studies integration is one way to counteract the devaluation of social studies in elementary schools. This multiple case study examines the extent to which nine elementary PSTs were able to integrate social studies into lessons during an alternative field placement, an integratedSTEM camp. The findings show variance across and within participants in their ability to integrate social (...)

  • Instructional Practices of Elementary Social Studies Teachers in North and South Carolina.Tina L. Heafner, George B. Lipscomb & Paul G. Fitchett - 2014 - Journal of Social Studies Research 38 (1):15-31.
    Using data from the Survey of the Status of Social Studies ( S4), this article describes the instructional decisions and practices of elementary teachers in two neighboring states, one where social studies is tested and another where it is not. We define students’ opportunity to learn within these states as a composite of three variables: time allocations for social studies (teacher reported instructional time), methods for teaching social studies (teacher reported instructional strategies), and content focus (teacher reported content emphases and (...)

  • “Fitting It In”: Elementary Teachers Talk About Social Studies Instruction in Public School Classrooms.Michelle Bauml - 2023 - Journal of Social Studies Research 47 (3-4):147-160.
    The tenuous state of elementary social studies has been explained by scholars who cite lack of time and curriculum resources devoted to social studies; teachers’ emphasis on tested subjects; and instruction that distorts, trivializes, or omits social studies content. Integrating social studies with other core subjects has been positioned as a viable approach to address some of these challenges, but not all teachers have a healthy understanding of integration as an avenue for robust social studies instruction. This qualitative study explores (...)
