ELI5: Explain Like I'm 5

Integrative learning

Integrative learning is when you mix different things you learn to make a big understanding. Think of it like a puzzle - you have pieces of different shapes and colors, but when you put them all together, you make a big picture.

In school, you learn lots of different things, like math, science, history, and art. Each subject is like a puzzle piece. Integrative learning is when you take pieces from different subjects and put them together to understand something big. For example, you might use your math skills to understand statistics in science, or your history knowledge to understand the context of a book you're reading in English class. By integrating what you've learned in different subjects, you can make bigger connections and understand things more deeply.
