The construct of Education might be construed as Art instead of Science …
Of course there are aspects of the practice that are scientific in nature. The Art world is full of examples that parallel. The math in perspective. The chemistry in pigments. The physics of sculpture. All these artistic expressions require a solid grounding in the relevant science, but the final expression — the ultimate outcome — is not something that is science. Education is the process of sharing “the beauty and splendor of the world” with our students. We use scientific principles the same way a painter uses perspective and color. We apply technical knowledge the same way that a marble sculptor wields hammer and chisel. We strive to help our students to perceive the world by combining these technologies with our own inspiration and passion.
Education as Art.
I think there may be flaws in this analogy as well.
