Abstract

Following the two successful EC-TEL workshops on mobile learning and creativity, i.e. Mobile Learning and Creativity Workshop in 2012 (#MLCW12, https://cloudworks.ac.uk/cloud/view/6210 ) and Computational Tools Fostering Creativity in Learning Process in 2013 (#CCL2013, https://ccl2013.iit.demokritos.gr/cfp ), the third joint workshop on Creative Mobile Learning and Teaching (#CMLT14) will focus on innovative uses of mobile and wearable technologies to support creativity in learning and teaching. Creative Mobile Learning and Teaching is about using mobile and wearable technologies for teaching and learning how to be creative as well as teaching and learning through creative practice. As a full-day workshop, CML14 will be devoted to sharing good practice examples. Just to emphasize this point: It is the actual practice, and not theoretical approaches and concepts, that lies at the heart of #CLM14. By sharing real examples from practice, we want not only to explore existing creative practice (presentations of real examples) but also to identify future innovation (collective ideation activity) in using mobile and wearable technologies for learning and teaching how to be creative as well as learning and teaching through creative practice.
