內容簡介
內容簡介 瞬息萬變的經濟情勢與科技競爭,如何迎頭趕上,成為先行者,讓各國政府與全球企業頭痛不已。他們需要具備創意、創新,與應變能力的人才。但這種結合了創造力、人文素養、人際溝通、合作精神及問題解決能力的人才為何如此缺乏?為何所有機構的頭號難題會是這個?問題出在哪裡?該如何解決?本書會為所有政府機關與企業解答這個創意與創新匱乏的問題。提倡創意為什麼那麼基本? 政府、企業,與組織從來沒有這麼重視創意與創新。這為什麼那麼基本,少了創意的代價又是什麼?發展創意為什麼必要?為什麼有那麼多成年人自認缺乏創意(而且不夠聰明),但多數的孩子都可以不停丟出許多點子?我們的成長過程中到底出了什麼問題?提倡創意需要什麼?創意是人人都有,還是只限於得天獨厚的少數人?創意能培養嗎?該如何培養?好創意能帶來什麼好處?Robinson認為,各國政府企業都面臨了同樣的問題:許多社會新鮮人出了校門卻仍然摸不清自己的能力與專長。這個問題的根源就在學校。Robinson的說理與敘事能力向來讓人信服,他指出了政府與個人可以從什麼角度來迅速補強創造力。新版的內容符合全球性教育制度的變遷,也收錄更多案例,重點是以更多國外教育的例子與美國教育制度對照,希望能吸引更多海外讀者。
