Integrating science and soul in education: Can science be feminine?

http://sciencesoul.blogspot.com/2007/06/can-science-be-feminine.html

Integrating science and soul in education. Saturday, June 30, 2007. Can science be feminine? I am sitting in a workshop for Playback Theatre. We are invited to tell our stories about Women's Business/ Men's Business. I find myself saying I have a story, even though I have no idea what it is. As the actors play back my story showing the conflict between the masculine and feminine I wonder why this story came to the surface. After all, the research on women's ways of knowing has been around since 1982,...

Integrating science and soul in education: Science is now on the curriculum agenda

http://sciencesoul.blogspot.com/2007/05/science-is-now-on-curriculum-agenda.html

Integrating science and soul in education. Thursday, May 17, 2007. Science is now on the curriculum agenda. Can science have soul? But can science curriculum frameworks have soul? That is my big question at the moment. I am particpating in the writing up of a Tasmanian science curriculum framework. It is being done in a hurry as a response to backlash from parents, community and teachers of the perhaps too visionary curriculum Essential Learnings. The Essential Learnings. Dr Sue Stack is a educator, rese...

http://smarted.blogspot.com/2007_11_01_archive.html

Friday, November 30, 2007. Sydney, here I come! So, earlier this year, after the mammoth effort of getting my succesful exhibition underway, I am wondering where my art is heading. should I change direction. try somthing new. and I did for awhile. playing around with machinima and cartoon videos. And then the offer came out of the blue to do an exhibition in a new art gallery PromenArt. In Balmain in Sydney. Had I anything to say? Well I was engaged on a forum looking at postformal thinking - vision.

Art in Ed: January 2006

http://smarted.blogspot.com/2006_01_01_archive.html

Tuesday, January 31, 2006. I've just this minute finished painting a piece and I am still scraping glue off my fingers. It is called. And you will notice that it continues with my black, white and red theme. (except for the dog poo which is realistic poo brown. (which is a colour that is very easy to mix as my 4 year old neice can attest to. she loves seeing what happens when all the colours on her pallette mix together.). The image came to me after watching Reece Weatherspoon in Legally Blonde. If you w...

Art in Ed: March 2007

http://smarted.blogspot.com/2007_03_01_archive.html

Sunday, March 18, 2007. Finally, the ladies will go on the plinths! Exhibition go, go go! Today in about 2 hours I will be running a military operation. 4 cars at intervals will be invading Salamanca Place, my crew will be commanding parking places. Then with precision, they will be unloading precious sculptures from each car. Taking them up a flight of steps to Off Centre Gallery with no tripping, or dropping the sculptures out of the bottom of boxes, or knocking pieces off. Posted by Sue Stack @ 7:30 AM.

Art in Ed: February 2007

http://smarted.blogspot.com/2007_02_01_archive.html

Wednesday, February 07, 2007. What does it feel like to be a woman photographed or painted? I have a lovely book of reclining nudes by famous artists from across 200 years or so. Last year I decided to sculpt Lhote's Bacchante. I moved into the pose and a strange thing happened. I connected in a completely different way to what I might have experienced if I was just looking at a painting. Did the women connect at a different level? Can we now ever look at a nude painting in the same way again? An invitat...

Saturday, April 29, 2006. I have been head down writing my thesis and so my art blog has gone by the wayside. Ooops! Am I doing Integral Art? Integral Art holds that:. All perspectives are valid,. Some viewpoints may transcend and include others. Where you stand is what you see. Just looking at his pictures I found myself pulled to attention, recalling who I am, in the most profound way. My unpeeling nude does not call me to attention. nor bring out the best in me, nor cause me to transform. I th...An in...

Integrating science and soul in education. Sunday, July 29, 2007. World Science Conferences say science education is in crisis. I have just come back from the CONASTA / ICASE / ASERA. Science education conferences in Perth. While the theme was supposed to be on environmental sustainability it seemed to be more about the sustainability of science education.
