The Ryan Learning Centre (RLC) of the Art Institute of Chicago have created Art + Science videos and their accompanying lesson plans to explore science concepts and STEAM careers in museum conservation. Each lesson plan details teacher preparation and facilitation and is paired with a student resource to aid in student learning. The videos and curriculum are designed for middle and high school students.
Art + Science is part of a collaborative effort between educators, interpretation specialists, and conservators and scientists at the Art Institute to provide visitors with new ways of discovering the museum’s collection.
This material is based upon work supported by the National Science Foundation under Grant No. OISE 1743748.
