Workshop Announcement: Creativity and Cognition in Engineering Design
At the conference on Creativity and Cognition 2009:
http://www.creativityandcognition09.org/
October 27, 2009,
Berkeley, CA.
The goal of this workshop is to bring together researchers in engineering
education, engineering design, and learning sciences who study theoretical and
pedagogical issues at the juncture of creativity and cognition within the
disciplinary context of engineering. The need to produce a creative engineering
workforce for the 21st century is well recognized and this workshop aims to
contribute to this dialogue by exploring what is creativity in engineering and
how do engineering students develop the knowledge and skills of acting
creatively.
Some topics of interest include:
-Constraints and Creativity in Engineering Design
-Prior Knowledge and Framing Theories
-Technology and Creativity in Engineering Design
-Acting Creatively while Designing
-Assessing Creativity
We are open to a broad range of submissions. To participate please submit a 2-4
page position paper outlining your interests and current work to the workshop
organizers (listed below) by August 31, 2009. Decisions will be made by
September 07, 2009. Please send submissions to: [log in to unmask]
