Where Do Good Ideas Come From. Lucy Gower.2012 FinalLucidity
Fundraising is tough. Unless, as individuals and organisations we develop our creative thinking and innovation skills our fundraising will lag behind.
Innovation isn’t about a genius working in isolation. Good ideas are formed from a series of previously unconnected connections. So how do you increase your chances of making those connections and developing ideas?
Come see examples of how not engaging your whole team in the design process, avoiding usability testing and knowing more than your users will lead to delivering a poor product. But be careful, you may leave motivated to do just the opposite.

NZCETA. Preparing for a New Entrepreneurial EconomySteve Silvey
Presentation to NZCETA Annual Conference July 2013. The most powerful economic force in the 21st Century will be entrepreneurship, and today's high school students are better placed than ever to take advantage of this. In the past, the entrepreneur has been regarded as an outlier or a misfit in the education system. In the future a much greater proportion of high school students will be considering starting up as a career option, and the system needs to respond to remain relevant.

In Visual Thinking class we are studying a major political issue, Income Inequality, and also looking at the work of 3 artists who's work could be considered propaganda. The project is to make a hypothetical billboard, which will be displayed on the busiest freeway in the USA for one month, with a message related to solutions to the problem of Income Inequality.
This is a primer for those interested in the history and theories of critical theory. More downloads on related subjects are available on my website www.TonyWardEdu.com
Hannah Fox, Silk Mill Project Director, Derby Museums Trust
ow tech, hi-tech, bi-tech, little tech – whatever the type of scale, technology provides the tools, methods and materials… but it’s what we do with them that counts. In a world where museums need to push boundaries and our comfort levels to survive and thrive, how might we use these tools and human-centred design to disrupt the form of designing and making our museums in ways that ensure they have relevance and sustainability.
Hannah will share the internationally-acclaimed approaches being used by Derby Museums to develop their sites and programmes – including their redevelopment of the Silk Mill, site of the world’s first factory, as the Museum of Making – challenging us to expand perspectives on what ‘makes a museum’.
Hannah is the Project Director for the re-development of Derby Silk Mill; the site of the world’s first factory; as a new Museum of Making. By embedding co-production and human centred design methodologies into a major museum development, citizen curators and makers are at the heart of the £17m project to ‘make’ the Museum of Making. This project features in several national and international publications, including Nina Simon’s latest book “The Art of Relevance”. Hannah is a National Arts Strategies Creative Communities Fellow – a global network of cultural and social entrepreneurs, She also mentors staff and organisations working in cross-sector projects for social impact and is a board member of FIGMENT, a global participatory arts programme.
We all have heard the word, innovation. Everyone is talking about it like a commodity.
樂 But what is innovation, really? How do we unfold the meaning of this popular yet abstract word? What makes a successful innovator?
If there is a secret ingredient for innovation, don't you want to know it?
Come and join us to discover some answers to these questions in this engaging and inspiring talk.
In this presentation you'll learn:
The core elements of innovation
Tools to guide your innovation journey
Practical examples innovators have used in the history of innovation
The SECRET ingredient to innovate
Can design save the world (and should it try?)Martyn Perks
Can design change the world? Designers have always wanted to change it -- with better ideas of how we can live differently. However today, the trend is more of wanting to restrict our behaviour than of exploring we ways of exploiting resources, creativity and notions of the future. Should design adopt a conservative outlook -- or strive for more radical and progressive ideas?
This presentation aims at boosting your creativity, whether you need it for your innovation processes, for your marketing and sales or for other purposes.
It will inform you about:
- what the creativity process is
- how creativity was perceived in history
- what are the main scientific discoveries about creativity
- what cutting edge creativity building techniques exist today
- practical information about these techniques, for instance :
- brainstorming and related approaches
- innovation games
- lateral thinking, 6 hats
- mindmaps
- improvisation derived approch
- who have been the main innovators in creativity techniques and what they have developped
By the way, I practice these techniques and teach them to companies and at the "Ecole Supérieure de Ventes" of Saint Germain en Laye.
CREATIVE PLACEMAKING: Thinking Beyond Projects
In the words of a recent National Endowment for the Arts report, Creative Placemaking animates public and private spaces, rejuvenates structures and streetscapes, improves local business viability and public safety, and brings diverse people together to celebrate, inspire, and be inspired.
Arts and culture have been a part of community revitalization and economic development strategies for years. Creative Placemaking is more than a new term for this effort -- at its highest levels, it involves a new way of thinking about the role of creativity in making society more sustainable. It is not just about doing projects -- it is also about the thinking behind the projects and about making stronger connections between creative, community and economic development.
Learn from experts and practitioners who have been at the heart of efforts to use creativity to grow communities and get a sneak peek at Creative Placemaking in action. Our three panelists will provide some helpful examples of what they have done in their communities:
Steve Dalhberg, is director of the Connecticut-based International Centre for Creativity and Imagination, vice president of innovation for Future Workplace, and faculty of "Creativity + Social Change" at the University of Connecticut.
Leonardo Vazquez, AICP/PP is the Director of Arts Build Communities at Rutgers University. He will discuss Rutgers¹ community coaching program and ABC¹s new Master Practitioner Certificate Program in creative placemaking.
The Wormfarm Institute in Sauk County, Wisconsin, is rural creative placemaking at its best. It's a 40-acre organic vegetable farm and creative hub, begun 15 years ago by artists Jay Salinas and Donna Neuwirth. Wormfarm aims to recreate the link that once existed between culture and agriculture with innovative and intuitive efforts that center around a sense of the land and the community.
Creativity is a discipline we need more than. But the right conditions are needed for it to thrive. Taking a look at academia, science and recent writing about ideas- this presentation uncovers the 11 conditions required for creativity to flourish.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.
Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

19. “A joyful life is an individual
creation that cannot be
copied from a recipe.”
― Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi
20. “Most enjoyable activities are not
natural; they demand an effort that
initially one is reluctant to make. But
once the interaction starts to provide
feedback to the person's skills, it usually
begins to be intrinsically rewarding.”
21. INTRINSIC VS EXTRINSIC
Motivated employees play a crucial role in
creating a company’s sustainable competitive
advantage. Successful ‘Management by
Motivation’ shows that in a knowledge-based
society, this goal cannot be achieved by extrinsic
motivation alone. Pay for performance often even
hurts because it crowds out intrinsic motivation.
To succeed, companies have to find ways of
fostering and sustaining intrinsic motivation.
22. What things are you intrinsically motivated to do?
Now
what
?
23. Allowing for a little uncertainty, focusing on
what you dream of doing, before committing
to action, can lead to greater success and
satisfaction in the long run.
24. “To overcome the anxieties and
depressions of contemporary life,
individuals must become independent of
the social environment to the degree that
they no longer respond exclusively in terms
of its rewards and punishments. To achieve
such autonomy, a person has to learn to
provide rewards to herself. She has to
develop the ability to find enjoyment and
purpose regardless of external
circumstances.”
