    What would it look like if business students regularly evaluated works of art to complement their critical analysis of business plans? Or budding mathematicians and scientists learned about satellite design through the folds of Oragami? In this episode, Dan Baum interviews Laura Pasquini, program navigator for Visual Arts and Humanities at Anne Arundel Community College (AACC), to explore the concept of arts integration. She shares her insights into how the fusion of art with non-art subjects, like math and science, can unlock critical thinking, creativity and empathy in students. Learn about the transformative impact of art on students, the distinction between art and creativity and how art fosters unique problem-solving skills.

    Pasquini highlights her work with faculty members across the college to integrate arts into diverse fields like business, anthropology and STEM, emphasizing the importance of collaboration and creativity in education. Tune in as she sheds light on the growing movement to turn STEM into STEAM, creating a more holistic and engaging learning experience for students. Whether you're an educator, artist or just curious about the future of education, this episode will challenge your perspective on the game-changing role of creativity in learning.
