In teaching and curriculum, we often treat art as art and science as science—two separate worlds. But there is beauty in science, and science in beauty. The best learning happens not when we divide them, but when we let their edges fold into one another.
For me, that connection came through origami. I’ve always loved the art form—and it struck me that just as there is symmetry in cells, there is structure and precision in each delicate fold of paper.
