{"product_id":"the-creative-workforce-erica-mcwilliam-9781921410222","title":"The Creative Workforce: How to Launch Young People Into High-Flying Futures","description":"Creativity has become the economic engine of the 21st century. No longer the preserve of creative industries, 'creative capital'--in the form of novel thinking, navigation, interactivity and border-crossing--has become crucial to success and productivity. But are young people being equipped for a work future in which creativity is the defining feature of economic life? In this important book, Erica McWilliam argues that young people's creative capacities are not being properly developed and that education, particularly in Australia, demands a massive pedagogical shift. Using both Australian and overseas examples, McWilliam describes what creative capacities are, why they've become important to our work futures, and what can be done to optimize the creative capacities of young people.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Erica McWilliam\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1921410221\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781921410222\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e University of New South Wales Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/01\/2008\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 240\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.65lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.80d","brand":"Erica McWilliam","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48742664110335,"sku":"9781921410222","price":25.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-creative-workforce-erica-mcwilliam-9781921410222","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
