Leonardo Da Vinci, artist or scientist?

This work is based on one main hypothesis: Human beings are natural inquirers and inquiry (a systematic application of curiosity) is at the heart of learning.

Students can use their own observations, with some guidance, to approach the scientific method and topics that help them understand their environment. Additionally, careful observation of the environment and a (personal) record of natural phenomenon through-drawing and 3-D manipulation (creating a physical-visual record) provides a different level of learning. The goal of the modules: Integrate the tools of art and science through an inquiry based method. Science provides a systematic intellectual model with proscribed paths to achieve specific defensible analytical outcome. Art compliments this specific inquiry by providing an-experiential model with diverse paths to achieve creative/qualitative outcome. It is in the melding of analysis, creativity, curiosity and intuition that we find our best scientists and artists. These modules can serve a basis for either art or science classes.
