Education:
The arts in STEAM education is arguably the most significant feature of the
framework. STEAM education, as a concept, emerged from the existing
STEM initiative, which was originally designed to emphasize the academic
subjects that teach the most important life skills, while also encouraging more
integrated lessons.
Fine Arts – The areas that are commonly covered by traditional art classes
and based primarily on aesthetics, with examples including drawing,
painting, sculpting, and photography.
Language Arts – Arts that revolve around the use of language and which
are concerned with communication, with some key examples including
English, foreign languages, sign language, and creative writing.
Physical Arts – Subjects and topics focused on physical activity, such as
dance and sport.
Manual Arts – Art-based subjects that are centred around physical skills
and the manipulation of objects, with some of the main examples including
architecture and landscape design.
Liberal Arts – The broadest of the five sub-categories, covering some of
the more typically academic subjects, with examples like philosophy, ethics,
sociology, history, politics, civics, and theology.
The skills developed through the arts are often in high demand within the
workforce, where creative solutions to problems may be needed and where
different perspectives can be useful. The language arts are also vital for
communication and, in the case of things like sign language, can help to provide
people with greater accessibility.
“It is in Apple’s DNA that technology alone is not enough – that it’s technology
married with liberal arts, married with the humanities, that yields us the results
that make our hearts sing.”
