“After a certain high level of technical skill is achieved, science and art tend to coalesce in aesthetics, plasticity and form. The greatest scientists are always artists as well.” – Albert Einstein
Despite agreeing with virtually everything else he said in his THIS DAY newspaper article on the recent NBL sponsored Maltina Teacher of the year competition, I TOTALLY disagree with the sentiment expressed in that piece (see quote below) by Olusegun Adeniyi, that suggests he considers science subjects more important than those in the arts, humanities etc.
Nothing could be further from the truth, as I explain in this PDF white paper…AND as the above quote credited to Albert Einstein himself indicates.
This report is meant for parents looking for guidance to help their kids get the kind of education that will equip them to arrive adulthood with the ability to function as happy, competent income earners, doing what they love doing in life.
“It is also gratifying that the teachers who performed well in the exercise are in the sciences (especially mathematics, physics and chemistry) as well as English.” – Olusegun Adeniyi in his article titled “An adventure to discover the best teacher in Nigeria. Drama Galore…lol!” – published in THIS DAY Newspaper – 15th October 2015
