The pace of technological change has made the immediate and
long-term future difficult, if not impossible, to predict. Teachers
are forced to imagine the world they are preparing their students
to live in. In this situation creativity becomes a vital resource
for enabling uncertain futures to be embraced and an important
attribute for students to have both for their learning and their
employability in the future. In this book, the authors argue that
creativity is a social and collaborative process that can be
enhanced through online and digital technologies. Filled with case
studies and practical tasks, it shows teachers how they can develop
an approach to teaching and learning with digital technologies that
is inherently social, collaborative and creative. Including case
studies and practical examples of projects and lessons throughout,
the chapters cover: Learning in a networked society An examination
of sharing practices and how knowledge can be shared more
effectively Potential pitfalls of virtual learning environments and
public social networking sites Using digital media to plan schemes
of work and lessons How to facilitate meaningful collaboration and
discussion through digital media Creating online environments to
enable students to share their understandings and learning Bringing
together key ideas about creativity, collaborative learning and ICT
in the classroom, this timely book will be an invaluable resource
for all teachers.
