Abstract

One school of thought regarding choreography says to teach only the rules of fundamental design and form and have students create from formulas. Another school of thought eschews the fundamentals and focuses on creativity. Author Diana Green espouses both theories and blends them beautifully in Choreographing From Within: Developing a Habit of Inquiry as an Artist. Her approach to integrating the art and craft of choreography grounds students in the fundamentals and takes the fear out of creativity. Green uses an inquiry-based approach to engage students, placing them at the center of the learning and allowing for multiple pathways of learning. Rather than present a cookbook approach with recipes to follow, Green offers a thorough understanding of the medium, provides examples, and allows students to learn, explore, and create based on their own unique styles. Choreographing From Within will help students * learn to create movement that originates from a specific intent, * understand The elements of choreography, * synthesize those elements through a series of exercises in which they are given explicit instruction, and * break formulaic boundaries as they create their own dances. The text contains assignments that reinforce the concepts the students learn in each chapter (including the elements of energy, space, time, and quality; partnering; transitions; and formulas). Each choreographic concept is explored through warm-up exercises, moves on to improvisations, and then focuses on students' discovery through reflective questioning, discussions, and short movement studies. The text provides tools for students and their instructors to evaluate and document their progress through class critiques, journal writing, rubrics, digital portfolios, and critical thinking essays. Students can retest their discoveries by completing exercises that focus on breaking the rules they learned. In this way, each student is encouraged to develop a unique creative style to be used in His or her own finished work, be it for solo, duet, or small-group choreography. Part I focuses on the process of choreography and how to be intentionally creative. Part II introduces students to the elements of movement, helping them to analyze the separate elements before they learn to synthesize them in part III, where music is added. Students also learn how to apply transitions in their work, use formulas to manipulate movement, and explore with props and various numbers of dancers. Finally, in part IV, students begin planning finished pieces of choreography using methods of refining and forming. The book's dynamic photos illustrate the concepts covered in the book, helping to shape students' awareness and inspire them in their own creations. Because the text is designed for use with all dance techniques, the glossary terms clarify communication across various dance styles. Choreographing From Within helps students find the unique artist within themselves. That unique artist springs from The inquiry-based approach that puts students in the driver's seat and provides numerous pathways and tools for them to develop their abilities to their fullest.

Abstract

Universal Principles of Design, Revised and Updated is a comprehensive, cross-disciplinary encyclopedia covering 125 laws, guidelines, human biases, and general considerations important to successful design. Richly illustrated and easy to navigate, it pairs clear explanations of every design concept with visual examples of the ideas applied in practice. From the 80/20 Rule to the Weakest Link, every major design concept is defined and illustrated. Whether a marketing campaign or a museum exhibit, a video game or a complex control system, the design we see is the culmination of many concepts and practices brought together from a variety of disciplines. Because no one can be an expert on everything, designers have always had to scramble to find the information and know-how required to make a design work-until now. Universal Principles of Design is the first comprehensive, cross-disciplinary encyclopedia of design. Richly illustrated and easy to navigate, it pairs clear explanations of every design concept with visual examples of the concepts applied in practice. From the "80/20" rule to chunking, from baby-face bias to Occam's razor, and from self-similarity to storytelling, every major design concept is defined and illustrated for readers to expand their knowledge. This landmark reference will become the standard for designers, engineers, architects, and students who seek to broaden and improve their design expertise.

Abstract

Veel mensen die in de psychiatrie werken, komen tot de conclusie dat het anders kan. De DSM-diagnoses voelen beperkend, ze vertellen ons niets over de kern van het psychisch lijden. Maar wat dan wel? We zijn God niet gaat over een nieuwe kijk op psychisch lijden, diagnose en behandeling. Het uitgangspunt is dat niet de hulpverlener de waarheid in pacht heeft maar dat die in gezamenlijke samenwerking met de hulpvrager gevonden wordt.Autonomie van de patiënt, bewustzijn en cocreatie zijn hierbij belangrijke onderwerpen. Vanuit professionele - en ervaringskennis nemen de auteurs de huidige psychiatrie onder de loep. Hun voornaamste doel is het streven naar een gelijkwaardige relatie tussen behandelaar en cliënt.(https://www.standaardboekhandel.be/p/we-zijn-god-niet-9789401481007)

Abstract

The printing press, the pencil, the flush toilet, the battery--these are all great ideas. But where do they come from? What kind of environment breeds them? What sparks the flash of brilliance? How do we generate the breakthrough technologies that push forward our lives, our society, our culture? Steven Johnson's answers are revelatory as he identifies the seven key patterns behind genuine innovation, and traces them across time and disciplines. From Darwin and Freud to the halls of Google and Apple, Johnson investigates the innovation hubs throughout modern time and pulls out the approaches and commonalities that seem to appear at moments of originality.

Abstract

Onze samenleving verandert in rap tempo: maatschappelijke zekerheden verdwijnen en burgers voeren steeds vaker de regie over hun eigen zorg en welzijn. Dat stelt grote uitdagingen aan de beroepsuitoefening van sociaal werkers. De sociaal werker van nu kan buiten de bestaande kaders denken en gaat -samen met anderen- op zoek naar nieuwe mogelijkheden en oplossingen. Dat vergt creativiteit! Creativiteit als uitdaging in sociaal werk focust op zowel de individuele creativiteit van sociaal werkers als op de samenwerking en cocreatie met burgers en professionals van verschillende disciplines. Het boek behandelt kennis, inzichten en tools die sociaal werkers kunnen inzetten bij de creatieve processen bij het zoeken naar nieuwe en waardevolle mogelijkheden om maatwerk te bieden. Voor het benutten en uitbouwen van het creatief kapitaal van de sociaal werker, wisselt het boek theoretische concepten en onderzoeksgegevens af met interessante casussen, praktische opdrachten en creativiteitstechnieken. Het boek is geschreven voor studenten van de opleidingen Social Work, Maatschappelijk Werk en Dienstverlening, Sociaal Pedagogische Hulpverlening, Culturele en Maatschappelijke Vorming, Toegepaste Psychologie en Creatieve Therapie. Paul Beekers en Ruud Kroes zijn docent Creativiteitstheorie aan de Hogeschool van Arnhem en Nijmegen (HAN). Jan van Rosmalen is docent, inspirator en coördinator van de minor 'Creativiteitsontwikkeling' aan de HAN
