About this Unit
Creativity is a systematic, logical process mixing imaginative and creative thinking. Ideation is a process for forming and relating ideas derived through creativity. Innovation seeks to take ideas through invention and entrepreneurial processes to create new economic and social value. Students will be exposed to a variety of brainstorming, creativity and foresight methods and tools, with emphasis on scenario planning methods. Students will be introduced to workshop development, moderation and management approaches and methods. Selected key themes on economic, social, technological, and sustainable development for Australia over the next 10-30 years will be analysed and developed through a scenario planning workshop process, with outputs mapped to business and social innovation and entrepreneurship thinking, and platforms. Students will also be exposed to creativity and foresight methods used by the Western Sydney University Launch Pad Business Technology Incubator.
