Becoming Creative Super Learners at LIT04UNITAR!




LIT04

Learning Innovation Talks 04 (LIT04) is organized by UNITAR International University on Wednesday, 15 January (2014).


MY TALK

My talk is entitled: Becoming Creative Super Learners. 

Imagine if you could read a 200-page book in 20 minutes? In today’s disruptive information overloaded world driven increasingly by innovation, we are required more than ever to transform the way we learn and think in terms of speed and creativity. In this talk, I will explore some of the things that we can do to stimulate and empower our brains and senses to be more focused, learn faster, and think more creatively. The most important message is that our brains can be rewired to become ‘Creative Super Learners’ at any age.

FEEDBACK

Here is some feedback on my talk from participants (and speakers) attending LIT04 through tweets:







Al-Hamdulilla the response seemed positive, so I must have done something right!


#LIT4UNITAR HASHTAG

The #LIT4UNITAR Twitter hashtag rocked during LIT04 and many of the participants were actively tweeting during the event. Everyone could follow the hashtag live, as the organizers had set up several flat-screens strategically around the seminar room. Thumbs up for that! Here are some stats to ponder:






The #LIT4UNITAR twitter hashtag stats were generated using Tweet Archivist.



MIND MAPS

WHAT?
The Creative Commons (CC) licenses enable copyright holders to grant some or all of their rights to the public while retaining others through a variety of licensing and contract schemes including dedication to the public domain or open content licensing terms. The intention is to avoid the problems current copyright laws create for the sharing of information ...more

JUICE?
Until today, many are still confused with what CC is really about. If you are one of them (including me!) I suppose this video below would be an excellent starters to visualize in our minds what Creative Commons is really about.



If you want to know more about CC in a creative and informative way, perhaps you should check out Robin Goods excellent article about Creative Commons licenses :)
