Our Universe Revealed, Part 5: Teaching Chemistry with Art

Episode Topic: Teaching Chemistry with Art Science and art are the legacy of any culture, and there is renewed interest in integrating the arts and sciences in higher education. At the University of Notre Dame, faculty have designed a core curriculum course that explores the shared virtues, values, methods, and practices of art and chemistry. The course offers a unique learning experience as we draw from primary literature at the art-science interface, analyze works of art at the Raclin-Murphy Museum, and conduct chemistry experiments in the chemistry labs. By examining parallels in art and chemistry, we hope to develop critical analysis and innovative thinking and provide an understanding of the interconnectedness of these disciplines. Join Bahram Moasser Ph.D., for this exploration of chemistry and art at this talk.Featured Speakers:Bahram Moasser Ph.D., Teaching Professor, Department of Chemistry and Biochemistry, University of Notre DameRead this episode's recap over on the University of Notre Dame's open online learning community platform, ThinkND: https://go.nd.edu/9243f0.This podcast is a part of the ThinkND Series titled Our Universe Revealed.Thanks for listening!
