Event Host: School of Music, STEAM Factory


The STEAM Factory and the Music Education area of the School of Music welcome noted scholar Randall Everett Allsup, Teachers College, Columbia University. As part of his residency at Ohio State, Allsup presents "Art and Science, and STEM to STEAM: Some Distinctions and Convergences" at 400 West Rich Street in downtown Columbus.

If it is the case that works of art exist “in their own space,” and if it remains true that there is something about an aesthetic experience that is extra/ordinary (or even peculiar), then the inclusion of “Art” within the panoply of Science, Technology, Engineering and Math is hardly self-evident. Proponents, like the Partnership for 21st Century Skills (2015), argue that the sciences are enlarged by the arts, providing STEM subjects with the “4Cs” of art-making –- creativity, critical thinking, communication and collaboration. 

Allsup also will present "Instrumental Music Education, Identity and Social Justice" at the Ohio State School of Music as follows:

Tuesday, Feb. 26 at 9:30 a.m. — Weigel Hall 174 (MUS 4576)
Tuesday, Feb. 26 at 12:40 p.m.— Weigel Hall 177 (MUS 4576)

All lectures are free and open to the public.
