Languages of Item:
English
Abstract:
Art is the basic mean which creates the environment to unveil to young
people crucial issues of ethics, arising from the breakthrough in all fields
of sciences. With the use of paintings and drama, educators hold an informal
but innovative tool to complement the process of science education. The
students undertake several roles during the whole procedure (actors, audience,
members of committees, commentators, debate members). Art,
through various activities, intrigue young learners to think, explore and confront
ethical issues referring to sciences, that with the formal educational
type of teaching they couldn’t understand.
