Beschreibung

Innovation is a process built by many hands and its definition makes it very clear that innovation is linked to practice, bringing benefits to something or someone. Education and innovation are a duo that is still going strong, but has a lot to gain. After all, being able to think about education and the teaching and learning process through the lens of "what can I do differently?" is an opportunity to bring new ideas to a space that inspires this kind of attention and care. Being in a society that increasingly consumes technologies, develops new tools, where information doubles in size every 12 hours, the creation of automation resources grows by leaps and bounds, in short, innovation as a product, service and process is everywhere, demands a different need from us educators. That's why talking about education and innovation together, thinking practically, about how all this can change the way we act, is a subject that arises with a certain urgency. That's why this book was written for you who want to understand not only what innovation in education is, but also want to learn about methods we can use, see real examples of these methods applied, and plan for change. Because by the end of this chat, you'll certainly be out of the box.

ACKNOWLEDGMENT

Writing this book was a solitary process, in which it was necessary not only to write, but also to be critical of myself. For this to happen, I relied on the work of Rafael Rezende, the proofreader of this book, who read all the drafts, made comments and played the role of criticizing and questioning every line that seemedloose.

Every day that I sat down in front of the computer to write, it was because someone believed it was possible. But more than that, it was because this project, which began alone, became a multi-handed project, with the assistance of other professionals who contributed to the outcome of thiswork.

I would like to thank the Freitas Bastos publishing house and its team for inviting me to do something I never imagined would be possible.

Last but not least, I thank my family just for being who they are. For being there and believing it waspossible.

PREFACE

I thought it would be easier to write apreface!All the more so when you look back and see a former pupilwhom I met during a master's degreeTo ask this former teacher

Even though here, I felt a little pain- how hard I worked! -"To talk about innovation in educationTo rummage through his files and find a goodconcept"!So I had to askAnd, without hesitation, I was sent a sample of yourpapyrus!

I then read part of the bookAnd, suddenly, inspiration struckme:Innovation, this girl, from what you've written -And with great precision -It's nothing more than a mixture of creativity andavailability!Did I get itright?

And I learned more, see?From the letters you've written hereInnovationcan also be called Educate-With-Action!Did you likeit?

Because it's not just about technology"cuteness", speedetc. etc. and so onBut about commitment and attitudeWhich is her mainthing!

I also learned from AndréiaThat "an insight is the filling of a beautifulidea"That in turn these things - although invisible -Fill prototypes and become tangibleEven ceasing to beimpossible...And if it still "goes reggae", who knowsAnd someone notices (before theyperish)The latter can grow in qualityAnd suddenly become InnovationAnd touch a lot of livingpeople!And the lament with a hint ofenvy:

I wish that one dayInovação would rhyme with "Brandão"Just like "Andréia"Which in this whole bookrhymes withIdeia!

It's every teacher's dreamThat the pupils one day- In a "spelling ruma" -Overtake thedoctor!For AndréiaThat day hascome!

ABOUT THE AUTHOR

Andréia Ribeiro has a master's degree in science, innovation and technology from the Federal University of Rio Grande do Norte (UFRN), a degree in education from the Pontifical Catholic University of Rio (PUC Rio) and a specialization in Human Resources Management and Implementation and Management of Distance Education from the Fluminense Federal University (UFF).

My encounter with education took place in the classrooms of public schools that were given over to community classes for people who dreamed of one day going to university. But it was at university, during my undergraduate studies, that I began to focus my interests on technology and distance learning. Since then, I've realized that I couldn't stay "stuck" in pedagogy classes, and that being multidisciplinary was an important construction process. It's been 20 years since college, and I'm still looking for multidisciplinarity as adifferentiator.

As well as being a lecturer, corporate education consultant, project manager, creator and presenter of the livecast #nosbastidores do Design Instrucional, in partnership with my great colleague Lane Primo, I was a postgraduate lecturer at FAERPI, teaching Educational Technologies, and at Faculdade Descomplica, teaching Functionalities of an LMS, always working in the field of instructional design, technologies, online teaching and corporateeducation.

PRESENTATION

I don't know exactly when the term innovation became important in my daily life. My interest in it came gradually and, before I knew it, I was in a master's classroom in 2015, studying the topic. On the other hand, I clearly remember noticing people not understanding what innovation was and how it could beused.

The idea of innovation linked to the famous "eureka" brings the idea that this is a process that occurs by chance or is exclusive to some areas, such as science and the arts. However, innovation is a term that first appeared in an industrial context, linked to technical invention. It was in 1939, with the Austrian economist Joseph Schumpeter, that the topic of innovation was widely discussed and its concept broadened to what we know today: the creation of a new product or a new combination of something existing.

Around 2010/15, the term Internet of Things - IoT began to become popular. In simple terms, IoT can be understood as physical objects capable of exchanging data and generating information using a wireless connection and without human intervention. An example? Probably the smartwatch you wear on your wrist and which is connected to your cell phone, the so-called smartwatch. It counts your steps, generates data on your workouts and transforms all this into graphs and information on the watch and cell phone.

The IoT brought innovation back into the debate, even if it was still in the background of these technologies. During this same period, in 2014, the game Pokémon Go appeared, which brought augmented reality technology into the conversation, making it a great emerging invention. Even so, talking about innovation and creativity is not a topic that is present in pedagogyclassrooms.

I believe that it was only after 2020 and 2021, the most acute period of the COVID-19 pandemic, that discussions about innovation became so accentuated. This is because it gained a position of importance within this new context; society demanded answers to complex situations of little or no certainty. Institutions and companies realized that something had changed and the demand for solutions that really addressed their pains became morepresent.

But is this a subject that everyone has taken ownership of? In practice, was it really clear to everyone? These were the questions that guided the structuring of the content of this book.

However, before I started writing and planning what I wanted to share, I decided to ask people what they wanted to know and what they weren't interested in knowing about education and innovation. I used my social networks to do this and the result was veryinteresting.

When I asked what thought sprang to mind when reading "innovation in education", many replied: something new and creativity, but one answer caught my attention: "innovation for me has more to do with strategy than with resources". This was the first insight: I realized that common sense identifiedthe word innovation as something "new", but, on the other hand, practice seemed to show that there was a certain confusion in meaning innovation as a resource. That's why one of the phrases I like best in this book is "innovation is not technology", and you'll understand why.

Another question asked whether, when someone said they had used innovation for an educational project, it was easy to identify the results or whether they seemed abstract. The majority answered yes: the results were abstract, because everything always looked the same. Another common response was: "I don't understand how the idea applies in practice and what's different about it." This was my second insight, because I realized that as well as going into great detail about the concepts that permeate innovation, I also needed to explain what the end product(s) are that an innovative process cangenerate.

Another essential point in this book is to understand that there is no innovation without tools, and this was the third insightof the research. When asked what they always wanted to know about innovation, we had a tie between "what methodologies can be used" and "how to bring the idea of innovating to the team/company"; for this reason, we have two chapters dedicated to presenting some well-known techniques and methodologies that are widely used by institutions, companies and innovation labs. In addition, we have a few pages dedicated to talking about the importance of culture and socio-emotional skills within this process of "how to bring it to theteam".

Finally, when asked if they could answer why innovation is important in education, the vast majority said yes. Followed by "I don't know, but I want to know", and that was my fourth and final insight,
