Art's interactions with science can be profound
An aptitude in science can be enhanced by participation in arts and crafts, write Robert and Michele Root-Bernstein. As an example, Albert Einstein played violin and piano, and attributed some of his gifts for science to "musical thinking," they write. "Arts and crafts develop such skills as observation, visual thinking, the ability to recognize and form patterns, and manipulative ability. They develop habits of thought and action that include practicing, persevering, and trial-and-error problem solving," they write. Educational Leadership

The drive to alter STEM to STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts & Math) has been advocated in many states, but unfortunately does not seem to have taken hold here in Long Island. STEAM encourages creative problem solving and allows students an opportunity to explore outside the parameters of absolutes. Our future needs this creativity to be a part of their process or we will be growing students lacking the creative inventiveness needed for innovative thinking.

Mentors.net - a Professional Development Resource
Mentors.net was founded in 1995 as a professional development resource for school administrators leading new teacher induction programs. It soon evolved into a destination where both new and student teachers could reflect on their teaching experiences. Now, nearly thirty years later, Mentors.net has taken on a new direction—serving as a platform for beginning teachers, preservice educators, and
other professionals to share their insights and experiences from the early years of teaching, with a focus on integrating artificial intelligence. We invite you to contribute by sharing your experiences in the form of a journal article, story, reflection, or timely tips, especially on how you incorporate AI into your teaching
practice. Submissions may range from a 500-word personal reflection to a 2,000-word article with formal citations.
