Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: B
Concept
Integrated instruction connects concepts from two or more disciplines around one task or real-life context.
Learners analyze the same situation through multiple subject lenses instead of keeping disciplinary content isolated.
Application
The activity links housing materials (Science/Physics) with socio-economic status (Social Science) in the same village context. Students interpret one issue using both disciplines, so the design is integrated content analysis.
Contrast
Abstract concept simplification reduces complexity within a concept; it does not create a cross-disciplinary link.
Process skills specialization concentrates on developing one selected skill or procedure.
Disciplinary content segmentation keeps subject content in separate disciplinary units.
Result
Therefore, the approach is integrated content analysis.
