Learning Together: Four Elements for STEM-Humanities Compositionism

Session Description
Academic institutions often place STEM fields (those of science, technology, engineering, and mathematics) in opposition against studies in the arts and humanities. Compositionism comprises four stages of a practice promoting continuous, constructive, cross-disciplinary interaction among thinkers in all realms of interest worldwide: Identifying core values, framing one’s values, placing one’s values before the public, and developing an iterative process for public engagement. These four steps to the attainment of a productive compositionist ideal can be placed in the context of worldviews, or thought patterns, that have been seen to typify Millennials, on the one hand, and baby-boomers, on the other.

One Response to Learning Together: Four Elements for STEM-Humanities Compositionism

    Aw, it’s too bad there were technical difficulties with the mic. What we did manage to get through was fascinating. I was especially interested in how compositionism seems to integrate learning and knowledge in a cross-disciplinary way. There was no emphasis on one discipline over another since they could all work synergistically through the application of compositionism.

    Thank you!
