Misalignment of Inter-Curricular Areas in the Second Stage of Education in Kosovo

This research aimed to analyze the misalignment of inter-curricular areas in teaching at the second stage of education in Kosovo. In the context of modern educational theory and practice, inter-curriculum is considered a key approach for improving the quality of teaching and integrating different educational contents. However, in Kosovo, there are certain challenges in implementing inter-curricular learning, which relate to the misalignment between different subjects and educational areas, which can negatively affect the efficiency and quality of teaching. The research was conducted through the analysis of curricula and programs, as well as through surveys of teachers and students, in order to identify existing problems and obstacles in the implementation of the inter-curricular approach. The results of the research indicate several key factors contributing to the misalignment, including the lack of professional training of teaching staff, unfavorable organization of teaching, as well as a non-systematic approach to the implementation of different areas in the educational process. Based on the obtained results, the research provides recommendations for improving the inter-curricular approach in Kosovo, including enhancing teacher training, reviewing curricula and programs, and strengthening collaboration among subject teachers. Through these recommendations, the research advocates for the creation of a more aligned educational system that will enable more efficient integration of different areas and better educational outcomes for students.
