    The purpose of this paper is to describe two different pedagogical experiments employed in a course on global capitalism. First, the course incorporated interdisciplinary team teaching (an economist and a political scientist).

Specifically, students experienced the political and economic role played by the International Monetary Fund (IMF) on the world stage by participating in a simulated IMF Executive Board meeting. The course was unique in the sense that it had dual (student and faculty) teams. We found that team teaching offered us the opportunity to go beyond our specific disciplines and present to students a world that is more complex than any one discipline can capture. Students told us that this active learning experience gave them an engaging opportunity to think about the perspective of others

    Shifting boundaries between the normal and the pathological:the case of mild intellectual disability

We tend to assume that the relationship between disorder, need and services is such that: first, a cut-off point between the disordered and the normal is determined; second, a needy population is identified; and third, resources are found (or at least should be found) to meet this need. However, the changing definitions of intellectual disability can best be understood if we think of this happening in reverse. That is, first, certain resources are thought obtainable, and then a cut-off point for disorder is selected which supplies an appropriately sized ‘needy population’
