Initial thoughts

My initial thoughts are that a studio approach to teaching and learning might benefit all involved in the teaching and learning process.  As an art teacher we model and demonstrate and than we give students a problem to solve.  We open channels for research and for them to make connections.  Students respond, research, think critically, brainstorm and communicate their research and their thoughts in their craft or project.  They assess their own work in writing. We come together for a class critique and others respond and think critically about the work of their peers.  This seems perfect to teach math, and

My environmental club at out Countywide YAM Celebration raising money for our Courtyard Project.

Our gaol: to buy a gazebo add plants to it and and plant 4 dogwoods in the courtyard
by designing the with a big idea in science this approach should also work enhance student learning.

Granted this man is very creative, action oriented, supplying an important need and and fundamental human need and function.  Visual Artists are makers.  They are doers and for this the film has it's good points and ideas about teaching and learning. Making is ........doing


These are good reasons I believe the STEM to STEAM.
