Froebel's Kindergarten teaching system

Описание: Glass sculptor and teacher, John Luebtow introduces us to the founder of the modern kindergarten, Friedrich Froebel, and how Froebel’s geometric “gifts” inspired John and generations of other artists. Preview from the SCIENCE episode, now streaming on the PBS App, craftinamerica.org, and pbs.org/craftinamerica. PBS broadcast premiere December 27, 2024

SCIENCE investigates the unexpected intersection between art and the sciences, spanning technology, engineering, biology, math, and the climate emergency. Nature, space, algorithms, and more serve as inspiration for artists connecting their work to the world around them, from the Santa Clara Pueblo in New Mexico to the computer science labs of MIT to NASA.

The featured artists include Erik and Martin Demaine, John Luebtow, Chris Maynard, Karen Nyberg, Joan Takayama-Ogawa, and Joseph & Sergio Youngblood Lugo.
