Abstract

[In this volume, we have covered the core components of transdisciplinary thinking to bring us to a greater understanding of how it functions as a structure of thinking for creativity. We position it as an imperative for the twenty-first century, and contextualize it in examples of transdisciplinary creativity, as implemented for in-service teachers in working with technologies. Yet at the same time it must be clear that while we discuss this construct of transdisciplinarity as being key for twenty-first century thinking and learning, it is also a way of thinking, working, and acting in the world that creative minds have emphasized historically for a long time. Our historical examples shared here describe a range of exemplars of creative thinking across disciplines time periods and contexts, from Pablo Picasso to Elon Musk, from Alexander Fleming to Temple Grandin, from Albert Einstein to DJ Danger Mouse, and many others.]
