From Dreamers to Doers - The Art & Science of Educational Project Management (Hardcover)

This educational project management book aims at providing project management knowledge and skills for the purpose of education. Project management requires science and art to coexist; science refers to the systematic and precise project management process. Science is combined with the artistic skill to deal with unpredictability and human behaviour. An educational project manager creates the plan, as no battle is ever won without one. However, in the current era of global crisis, shared visions and countries policies relate to educating future citizens in managing confusion and complexity, even sudden change, in everyday life. Unpredictability is dealt with through creativity and flexibility. At the moment, a major gap in educational authorship exists in regard to educational project management; there is no book on the subject. In addition, many educational approaches become more and more obsolete; they are replaced by new ones due to rapid world changes and ubiquitous technology. Thus, new modes of thinking and learning are prerequisites to encompass such global perspectives and technological advances. This book discusses innovative ideas and solutions for designing, developing, evaluating and sustaining educational projects. It is within humanitys natural competence to learn, adapt and evolve when reaching the abilities barriers and entering a new developmental spiral on a lifelong learning journey. Technology provides the medium to think, create and act in a more mindful and effective way for sustaining future life and wellbeing. Hence, this book offers an additional perspective and focus on existing knowledge for the next generations learning spaces design and development, so that the learners can initially reach their levels of abilities, and furthermore, unlock their hidden potential. Such implication requires an interdisciplinary background to create the underpinned matrix for the next generation educational project management (EPM). EPM is anchored in solid theoretical pillars combined with the best practices, including the human immersive experience when using new technologies. This book is an everyday tool for educational practitioners towards excellence in teaching and learning without interfering with natural learning, removing barriers and creating unlimited possibilities for the evolution of the individual, group and community. As the tools aid in the externalisation of our abilities, learning to adapt and be free to express is now considered situational and theme-based learning, utilising all shades from the real to the virtual matrix. EPM provides additional educational solutions to trigger new and undiscovered human abilities to visualise, harness, realise and advance educational communities common purposes. This book is part of the global solution in an era experiencing a world crisis, moving beyond known states and barriers by designing and developing progressive and cutting edge immersive educational experiences and projects for an inclusive world for all.
