Some people may say that art and science don’t really collaborate or have any kind of connection. However, I would say that they do. The way information is integrated in our everyday education is important. In order for science to fully develop and work it needs art. Just because the only articles we have read about are saying that it’s a great idea for them to beinterwinned, doesn’t influence my opinion in any way, I always thought their connection was very clear to see. Science and art offer unique differences and similarities when you’re talking about them as individual . fields. Just to be clear, there is a reason for why they collaborate well together, it’s because they only make sense when they are taught together, which is why some say it’s a good idea to have the STEAM cirriculum.

TREAC:  The relationship between science and art is without a doubt one of the most  important relationships,when we’re talking about education. It seems that now a days, technology is playing a huge role in our education.  The significance of technology taking over our education demands advanced curriculum in our education today. “It’s hard to believe that a work of abstract art might have actually affected the history of science” (Lehrer 1).  While technology affects science today in such an advanced way there are still some unanswered questions but we can only answer the unknown on our own.

Barclay:  Even though art and science are two completely different fields they work as a whole, one can’t work without the other.  The connection between science and art is so obvious to the eye, but only because we made those advances. In Yo-Yo Ma’s article hhee explains the relationship between art and science, and makes it so clear that art needs science, and science needs art.  Both these writers are certain of one thing, there is a clear connection between art and science that can be elaborated on more deeply by the advances of technology.

YO-YO MA

Yo-Yo Ma’s article was . very intresting. He talked a . lot about how he cares about the STEM program/cirriculum. He believes the arts and sciences are directly correlated and that everyone should want to be a part of the STEM cirriculum. I personally have never been to a school where they had this, but I think it’s a great idea for students who want to go into that field.

He mentions that it links directly with globalization and with other cultures, “empathetic understanding is vital” (Ma 58). HHe is trying to expres the point that all cultures should be involved with STEM and that parents and students need to go to a school wheree it meets the students needs, to help them prepare for the future.

What really stood out to me was when he was talking about “reaching equilibrium.” I didn’t know what that meant at first but now I know it’s about finding meaning and knowing your purpose. His view on thee future education for students is very intresting, and I believe he would be considered a role model for people who want to go into that field.
