Science or art, art and science

Bubble, Bulge and Bleb.

Somewhat a rather interesting tittle, have a little look.

 

 

When you visit a gallery, you expect to see art work, but it is very unusual and rather creative for me to see such modern art in a science format.

But at Dundee Life Sciences, Bubble, Bulge and Bleb, Artists and scientists collaborated to create a show case of cell of cell formation and its appearances of one a force has acted upon it.

A very interesting area looking into the advancement of modern technology on the illustrations , interpretations of science.

Self Reflection- sooo far in science, I see my self half way up the stairs, half way from the ground floor where I could not see myself as a confident practitioner delivering science but I can see myself getting there.

Childhood Memmories…

What experiences do you have of your childhood ?

It can sometimes be a tricky answer, for some jt can have lots to say , yet for others not as much.

I can clearly remember learning FRENCH. Yes French. Now the reasons for remembering it, was the kind odd but really engaging song. As a child I found something quite catchy that really caught me.

We also played traffic lights game and lots of outdoor activity with allowed us to practice of positional language in french with was so much funnn. (and I can easily re iterate and say many directions in french).

Learning that is fun and engaging can and does stay with you for some time. It is a matter of analysing such areas for my developing as a growing teacher and seeing the potential in learning which is meaningful for my class and those I teach and support.

Science , is it all that hard.

A new year, a new subject and lots of new ideas to explore.

And this time it’s exploring Science ! My biggest fear was that it really as complicated as it has always seen to been to me. Does the concepts need to be something beyond my understanding,

Strangely enough, and after a good thought the answer was NO. I thought to myself, look around you 2 things that you might have done today: walked; and played ball games. Both in itself a scientific understanding of its process. So science does involve my day to day life more than I think of it.

We might have not known what the substances were called or did not have the most accurate prediction, but we questioned and we tried.
