This book was released on 2023-01-01 with total page 235 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explores the complex, yet critical, relationship between technology and creativity, specifically in educational contexts. Creativity is important for success in today’s rapidly changing, radically contingent and hyperconnected world. This is even more relevant in the context of teaching and learning—where the psychological, sociological and cultural aspects of human learning confront the challenges of a rapidly changing, technologically saturated world. Written by some of the foremost thinkers and researchers in the area of creativity and/or technology, the chapters in this volume examine the impact of recent and future technologies on creativity, teaching and learning. Individually and collectively, they help us develop an understanding of this nexus of creativity and technology for education. They offer new perspectives on this rapidly evolving future—exploring issues, paradoxes, tensions, and points of interest for creativity and technology. They position these issues in ways that consider implications for thinking, learning, teaching, and education in general.

Download or read book The Natural Dynamic of Imaginative and Creative Technology written by Anthony Ugochukwu O. Aliche and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2014-11-07 with total page 465 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There is an age-old controversy regarding the major source of human knowledgewhether it arises from experience or from reason. The Natural Dynamics of Imaginative and Creative Technology presents a revolutionary reconciliation on this topic. As an arbitrator in the philosophical battle of mind-body dualism as championed by Aristotle and his contemporaries, this study offers a balanced approach. It stands out as a peculiar and distinct library in the dynamism of knowledge, with particular reference to the domain technological prowess. Author Anthony Aliche writes with passion as he seeks to represent a stipulative monolith in the ethical pattern of the present and upcoming generations for a clear achievement of the millennial development goals. Humanity has launched itself into a detrimental quagmire, allowing appetitive elements to gain the upper hand and oversee the affairs of the rational elements. To combat that challenge, Aliche offers a blueprint that, when used in its conclusive mission, will uplift humanity beyond the bounds of sense experience and materialism and into the domain of true knowledge and realities.

Download or read book Creative Technologies for Multidisciplinary Applications written by Connor, Andy M. and published by IGI Global. This book was released on 2016-03-29 with total page 486 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Given that institutions of higher education have a predisposition to compartmentalize and delineate areas of study, creative technology may seem oxymoronic. On the contrary, the very basis of western thought is found in the idea of transcendent knowledge. The marriage of opposing disciplines therefore acts as a more holistic approach to education. Creative Technologies for Multidisciplinary Applications acts as an inspiration to educators and researchers who wish to participate in the future of such multidisciplinary disciplines. Because creative technology encompasses many applications with the realm of art, gaming, the humanities, and digitization, this book features a diverse collection of relevant research for the modern world. It is a pivotal reference publication for educators, students, and researchers in fields related to sociology, technology, and the humanities.
