Transforming Education for Complexity
Drivers of transformation of education —we should consider consequencesof three main (and interrelated) drivers that “won’t go away in next20 years”: Digitalization + impact of automation of intellectual routine laborTurbulence or “strategic uncertainty”Need for transition towards sustainable civilization The new … Continue reading
The Intelligence of Complexity
To better appreciate the contribution of the ‘paradigm of complexity’ in Educational sciences, this paper proposes a framework discussing its cultural and historical roots. First, it focuses on Giambattista Vico’s (1668-1744) critique of René Descartes’ method (1637), contrasting Cartesian’s principles … Continue reading

When Time Makes a Difference: Addressing Ergodicity and Complexity in Education
The detection of complexity in behavioral outcomes often requires an estimation of their variability over a prolonged time spectrum to assess processes of stability and transformation. Conventional scholarship typically relies on snapshots to analyze those outcomes, assuming that group means … Continue reading

Transforming Teacher Education Thinking: Complexity and Relational Ways of Knowing
In order that teacher education programs can act as significant scaffolds in supporting new teachers to become informed, creative and innovative members of a highly complex and valuable profession, we need to re-imagine ways in which teacher education programs operate. … Continue reading

Towards a new Complexity Science of Learning and Education
In this position paper we argue that the field of learning and education is in a crisis and that the current paradigms in educational science are unable to adequately resolve the problems that are encountered in pedagogical practice. We believe … Continue reading

Complexity-based Learning for Leadership Development
In programme delivery, while the international trend in education has seen a shift from teacher-centred to student-centred learning and from transmission to reflective approaches, most leadership programmes have remained heavily teacher-centred. A key feature of teacher-centred learning relies on practices … Continue reading

The Challenge of Complexity for Cognitive Systems
Complex cognition addresses research on (a) high-level cognitive processes – mainly problem solving, reasoning, and decision making – and their interaction with more basic processes such as perception, learning, motivation and emotion and (b) cognitive processes which take place in … Continue reading

Complexity and Educational Research – A critical reflection
Judgements concerning proper or appropriate educational endeavour, methods of investigation and philosophising about education necessarily implicate perspectives, values, assumptions and beliefs. In recent years ideas from the complexity sciences have been utilised in many domains including psychology, economics, architecture, social … Continue reading

Blueprints for Complex Learning
Complex learning is always involved with achieving integrated sets of learning goals — multiple performance objectives. It has little to do with learning separate skills in isolation, but it is foremost dealing with learning to coordinate and integrate the separate … Continue reading

On Social Learning, Sensemaking Capacity, and Collective Intelligence
We are transitioning to an era in which the authority of previously dependable sources of understanding is increasingly called into question, in tandem with societal and global challenges that require new ways of thinking. Correspondingly, hard questions are now being … Continue reading
