This volume is the first to examine how craft artists and designers apply scientific and mathematical concepts to creating their work, and reveals approaches to problem-solving among these makers and professionals in STEM fields (science, technology, engineering and mathematics). The acronym STEM reflects educators' recognition that these fields are central to understanding how the 21st-century world functions, but those with training in the arts argue instead for the acronym STEAM, emphasizing how "art" intersects with the four other fields.Craft in the Laboratory builds off STEAM-related programming created by the Mint Museum of Art's department of Learning & Engagement to explore this intersection in depth.
