We’re celebrating 10 years of exploring the role that design thinking can play in schools. In that time, we’ve learned a lot about building creative school cultures based on two essential design practices: changing your point of view and prototyping. Below are some of the most effective practices we’ve seen. Via paul rayner

A great example of how Design Thinking doesn't just belong in the Design and Technologies Learning Area.

Intrapreneuriat et intelligence collective
Le "Think out of the box" doit se faire aussi bien à l’extérieur qu’à l’intérieur de l’entreprise. L’intrapreunariat, en s’appuyant sur une culture commune, reconnue et partagée, est tout aussi essentiel et prioritaire pour quiconque souhaite développer de nouveaux business.
L’alliance entre une organisation, des processus et des valeurs, et enfin des comportements, autour d’une vision partagée engendre cette culture de l’innovation. Et cette alliance, centrée autour de l’humain, va bouleverser les schémas classiques de leadership, mais aussi de considération de ce capital humain, devant être reconnu comme générateur de valeur ajoutée pour l’entreprise.
On voit de plus en plus apparaître dans les politiques managériales notamment du côté des États-Unis des Managers Inspiring, qui sont "des managers porteurs de sens", qui partagent leur passion. Aussi, pour faire émerger l’innovation, faut-il développer de nouveaux modèles d’organisation.

We recently told you about Canada’s blossoming tech scene. Now, some of the world’s biggest education influencers are gathering in Toronto to shape our schools of the future. Andreas Schleicher, a Director at the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD), is just one acclaimed speaker who’ll be tackling themes of big data, gamification, social media, coding and digital culture at … Via Tom D'Amico (@TDOttawa)

As emphasized in the excerpt below, I picture this as the old serfdom... Those who are fully digitally literate will live in the castle and those who are not will not. Further, they will be woefully ignorant of what is going on within those walls. We must make being digital not just trendy but instead create a culture where people realize that it is a landscape that has become an intricate part of living on the planet. It is not 'other' and people there are not 'those people' but rather a fully integrated part of humanity.
"“Students unable to navigate through a complex digital landscape will no longer be able to participate fully in the economic, social and cultural life around them,” he explained."

The world's first algae-powered building is being piloted in Hamburg. Designed by multinational firm Arup, features panel glass bioreactors on a facade containing microalgae that generate biomass and heat, serving as a renewable energy source.
The systems provide insulation for the building- 129 bioreactors have been fitted to the southwest and southeast faces of the building. They are controlled by an energy management center in which solar thermal heat and algae are harvested and stored to be used to create hot water.
Jan Wurm, Arup’s Europe Research Leader, said: 'Using bio-chemical processes in the facade of a building to create shade and energy is a really innovative concept. 'It might well become a sustainable solution for energy production in urban areas, so it is great to see it being tested in a real-life scenario.'
The news comes after Arup announced their vision for the future of skyscrapers which suggested that buildings would be 'living' buildings powered by algae that respond automatically to the weather and the changing needs of inhabitants... Via Lauren Moss, João Greno Brogueira, juandoming

I am interested to follow this story and to learn more details about the specific sources for the algae and a bit more of the science behind it. |
