UnGoogleability and Radical Creativity #1128

"The world is online: entertainment, communication, and--more recently--a lot of education, and even this conference. Unfortunately, the answers to many questions are online, as well. What is not a Google search away? Teachers, now more than ever, need to be unique and creative in their tasks and assessments so that students are forced to be unique and creative in their submissions. This short presentation will explore the concepts of unGoogleability and radical creativity, give some examples, and show how teachers can add it to their assessments. If teachers can default to creativity, students will learn that some things are not a Google search away and develop the creative problem-solving skills they will inevitably need to navigate the unknown future."
