Abstract
This chapter highlights roles of ICT in facilitating creative learning processes. A knowledge conversation model of creative learning addresses four types of knowledge: individual tacit knowledge, individual explicit knowledge, collective tacit knowledge, and collective explicit knowledge. Creativity motives conversations between different types of knowledge, which means creativity shapes new learning opportunities and facilitates learning processes. Therefore, this chapter regards ICT as one stimulus of ‘explicit-collective knowledge' and could facilitate the learning loop as well as creativity development. Additionally, technological pedagogical content knowledge (TPACK) framework as a part of training programme of staff development is proposed to Chinese universities.
