creativity education

shared by Alan McCluskey on 04 Jan 08 - Cached
  • Sir Ken Robinson makes an entertaining (and profoundly moving) case for creating an education system that nurtures creativity, rather than undermining it.
  • Robinson points out the many ways our schools fail to recognize -- much less cultivate -- the talents of many brilliant people. "We are educating people out of their creativity," Robinson says.

      Ken Robinson's book entitled "Out of our minds - learning to be creative" is well worth the read and may provide some answers to the Catalonian question of making school more creative and innovative.

  • The Schooling for Tomorrow project (SfT) is a major CERI project since the late 1990s, developing futures thinking in education. Its starting point is that neglect of the long term is increasingly problematic in meeting the challenges of complexity and change that education is facing.

  • "Thinking is now distributed," he said, "across minds, tools and media, groups of people, and space and time." It is important, he shared, for people to be fluent in new technologies and literacies because more and more jobs are disappearing that require classical knowledge.
  • Web 2.0, Dede noted, is "centered around Web-based communities, where the central theme is to facilitate creativity, collaboration, and sharing." It is an environment where knowledge is gained through bottom-up, individual methods, rather than top-down, traditional forms. "Web 2.0," he said, "is a major paradigm shift in the way people think."

      Creativity and collaboration and sharing are not an automatic results of using web tools. They require the right practices and the right institutional conditions if they are to survive and flourish.
  • In a world where learners are being shaped by the things they do outside of the classroom, he said, how do we prepare students for careers that do not exist yet and that will be driven by these very same methods of learning?
  • Alan McCluskey on 08 Feb 08
     
    A talk by a specialist in teacher training about the impact of Web 2.0 on education. For those already interested in change in education thanks to ICT, this may bring little new. When are people going to go beyond statements about how things are radically changing to what we are going to do about it?

    Details of the new Finnish Innovation Strategy which is not just about education but mainly about entrepreneurship and industry.
  • Alan McCluskey on 05 Feb 08
     
    In the page about implementation of the strategy it pleads for a holistic apporach to policy-making about innovation: "The key recommendations of the national innovation strategy will apply to the co-ordination of a broad-based innovation policy at the government level, and especially the co-ordination of the implementation of sector-specific development and innovation programmes. The objective of intensified co-ordination is to increase synergies between policy sectors in the promotion of innovations and to accelerate innovation activities especially in the public sector. The strategy will also outline how to promote the preconditions of Finnish enterprises and entrepreneurs in a comprehensive way."
