#5c21
○ Creative
collaboration as a
context-related collaborative
process of shared creation,
where a solution is
collaboratively (co)constructed
by a group of persons and
considered as original, valuable
or useful by a group of reference
(Romero & Barberà, 2015).

14. Learners as ICT co-creators

Intergenerational techno-creativity

Intergenerational creative programming engage
participants from different generations and backgrounds together
in the process of designing and developing an original work through
coding.
