Design thinking: inovação e propósito
In its second edition, Design Thinking: Innovation with Purpose revisits and expands the role of Design Thinking (DT) as a catalyst for significant change in complex realities. More than a problem-solving methodology, DT reaffirms itself as a philosophy that places the human being at the center of the innovation process, driving the achievement of individual and collective purposes, as well as the construction of innovative, ethical, and sustainable solutions.
In this work, the theme is addressed in a practical way, with dialogical language and permeated with visual resources, without losing its theoretical foundation. The objective is to offer readers an overview of the approach and a set of strategies applicable to real-world contexts.
DT has been successfully applied in companies and universities for over 20 years to generate new products, processes, and services. It has gained followers in public organizations, private organizations, the third sector, and educational institutions, as it helps prepare people to face contemporary challenges in all their phases.
Written for an audience eager for innovative strategies, this book is an accessible guide for managers and researchers in the areas of Leadership, Innovation, Education, Design, Knowledge Management, and Administration.
Design instrucional para professores
After several projects and publications focused on instructional design, we present this book to educators in general and, particularly, to teachers, those who are on the front lines of education and who increasingly recognize the need to update their original training to meet contemporary challenges.
The book is structured in eight chapters. The first two provide the reader with an overview of the fundamentals of instructional design (ID) and its steps for building educational solutions.
The third chapter places the learner at the center of the process, while the fourth provides an overview of learning theories, as well as ID from a pedagogical, andragogical, and heutagogical perspective.
The fifth and sixth chapters go to the heart of so-called micro ID and explore the design of learning activities and educational content. The seventh chapter addresses media and technologies, and the eighth – and final – chapter is dedicated to evaluating learning and the proposed solution from the ID perspective.
Throughout the book, we seek to alternate between tradition and innovation in instructional design; that is, we bring together guidelines tested and proven by researchers and practitioners throughout history, while also pointing to innovations that can make a difference in education in the present and the future.
DI 4.0 – Inovação na educação corporativa
In recent decades, the digital transformation movement has only increased the challenges in the field of corporate learning. A new professional environment, a new set of skills to be developed, and a multitude of new technological resources give rise to new responses, for which conventional, tried-and-tested solutions no longer work.
Aimed at human resources professionals, managers, coordinators and analysts of training & development, professionals from corporate universities, learning solution providers, and education specialists in general, this book is dedicated to those who have the responsibility of training/empowering professionals to act in accordance with the organization's strategic objectives.
The author updates the concept of Instructional Design (ID), offering a mix of tradition and innovation that combines classic instructional design (ADDIE model, Design Thinking, Learning Experience Design, and User-Driven Instructional Design). By presenting ID 4.0, she aligns the human perspective with business strategy, for professionals who wish to meet the challenge of innovating in corporate education.
