by Margarida Romero & Benjamin Lille & Azeneth Patiño
  • reference
There are numerous uses for digital technology in schools. While some uses do not make learning better, others allow students to engage more in the process of co-creation. This book provides insight into the creative approaches of digital technology in education. It also explains the potential and the contribution that digital technology brings to the personal, social and professional education of citizens of the 21st century. By approaching the matter critically, it is possible to analyze the educational challenges of using digital technology while also taking into account its complexity, the interdisciplinary aspect of its contributions and the so-called “21st century skills.” Creativity and collaborative problem solving are among the skills presented to readers in a more in-depth manner based on examples of fun challenges in the sector of creative technology which encourages their commitment to learning. Furthermore, the authors discuss different approaches, from the creative use of digital technology, to teaching by playing games, to the use of educational robotics and to the approaches related to creative learning labs. In the end, their focus is the development of teachers’ digital skills and a leadership which would better the integration of the creative uses of digital technology in education. The testimonies throughout this book give a concrete picture of the various educational ideas that were studied.
