L'intelligence collective

L'intelligence collective | 21st Century Learning and Teaching | Scoop.it

Intelligence collective : définition


L'intelligence collective représente la capacité intellectuelle d'une communauté d'individus qui est issue des interactions entre ses membres, permettant d'effectuer des tâches complexes grâce aux synergies réalisées. L'intelligence collective suppose, pour la communauté, le partage de l'information, le respect de règles communes, de nombreuses relations sociales, et un bénéfice à collaborer pour chacun des membres.


L'intelligence collective en entreprise 
Dans le monde du travail, l'intelligence collective est une réalité quotidienne puisque le principe même de l'entreprise est de faire travailler ensemble des membres aux profils divers (salariés et partenaires extérieurs) dans un objectif commun. Elle a un impact direct sur la réussite d'un projet et la performance globale de l'entreprise. Bien souvent, les entreprises résonnent donc en intelligence collective sans le savoir...

Peter Senge : « L'intelligence collective se construit dans l'action partagée. » | #MIT #Sharing #Collaboration 

Peter Senge : « L'intelligence collective se construit dans l'action partagée. » | #MIT #Sharing #Collaboration  | 21st Century Learning and Teaching | Scoop.it

Pour Peter Senge, professeur au MIT et spécialiste des organisations, le partage d'expériences et la collaboration entre individus, entreprises ou ONG sont la clé de la créativité et du progrès.

 

Entre la diffusion d'Internet et la globalisation, l'environnement des entreprises et les entreprises elles-mêmes ont profondément changé. Mais les idées à la base de cet ouvrage restent d'actualité car les ressorts profonds de la créativité, eux, sont restés les mêmes.

 

Créer une nouvelle entreprise ou lancer un projet, par exemple, requiert toujours autant de mobiliser l'imagination et l'intelligence collective. Les nouvelles technologies n'ont pas supprimé le besoin des individus de communiquer et de se faire comprendre pour travailler ensemble.

How can we create organizations and governments that are cooperative, productive, and creative? These are the questions of social physics, and they are especially important right now, because of global competition, environmental challenges, and government failure.


The engine that drives social physics is big data: the newly ubiquitous digital data that is becoming available about all aspects of human life. By using these data to build a predictive, computational theory of human behavior we can hope to engineer better social systems.

Collective Intelligence and practice-based Innovation: An idea evaluation method based on Collective Intelligence

Collective Intelligence and practice-based Innovation: An idea evaluation method based on Collective Intelligence | 21st Century Learning and Teaching | Scoop.it

Users and customers are becoming increasingly important sources of knowledge due to changes ininnovation policies and paradigms. Simultaneously innovation is becoming more of a networking activity. New methods are needed for processing information and ideas coming from multiple sources more effectively.


For example, the whole personnel of an organisation are seen as a great potential for innovation. The recent development of communication technologies such as the Internet has increased interest towards the multidisciplinary field of collective intelligence. To investigate the possibilities of collective intelligence, the nest-site selection process of honey bees was used asmodel for an idea evaluation tool, a prototype of which was then tested in a case organisation.


The results were promising; the prototype was able to evaluate ideas effectively, and it was highly accepted in the organisation.

Cosmopolitanism - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Cosmopolitanism

Cosmopolitanism is the ideology that all human ethnic groups belong to a single community based on a shared morality. A person who adheres to the idea of cosmopolitanism in any of its forms is called a cosmopolitan or cosmopolite. The word derives from Greek κοσμοπολίτης, cosmopolites, i.e.

I’m thrilled to have been chosen to write the next book for the World Innovation Summit for Education (WISE).

 

To be released in 2014 this new publication will focus on the link between technology and education by investigating how the connected society is transforming learning.


The rapid spread of digital platforms, increasing connectivity, the potential for massive online collaboration and “networked intelligence” are not only opening new doors to lifelong learning but breaking down generational, geographic and disciplinary boundaries.

Collective Intelligence

Collective Intelligence | 21st Century Learning and Teaching | Scoop.it

As all the people and computers on our planet get more and more closely connected, it's becoming increasingly useful to think of all the people and computers on the planet as a kind of global brain.

 

THOMAS W. MALONE is the Patrick J. McGovern Professor of Management at the MIT Sloan School of Management and the founding director of the MIT Center for Collective Intelligence. He was also the founding director of the MIT Center for Coordination Science and one of the two founding co-directors of the MIT Initiative on "Inventing the Organizations of the 21st Century".

 

Pretty much everything I'm doing now falls under the broad umbrella that I'd call collective intelligence. What does collective intelligence mean? It's important to realize that intelligence is not just something that happens inside individual brains. It also arises with groups of individuals. In fact, I'd define collective intelligence as groups of individuals acting collectively in ways that seem intelligent. By that definition, of course, collective intelligence has been around for a very long time. Families, companies, countries, and armies: those are all examples of groups of people working together in ways that at least sometimes seem intelligent.

USC Viterbi School of Engineering researchers believe that some of the most complex technologies of our times, such as robotics or cognitive computing, can learn a thing or two from swarms of ants, pigeons and bacteria.

For starters, let’s look at ants. Drop some sugar on the floor and wait. Sooner or later, one or two straggling ants scoping the area will stumble upon it. What happens next is perhaps one of the most elaborate orchestrations of organized teamwork in nature.

How the Internet's Collective Human Intelligence Could Outsmart AI

How the Internet's Collective Human Intelligence Could Outsmart AI | 21st Century Learning and Teaching | Scoop.it
Okay, collective intelligence is deeply engrained in animals; the collective intelligence of bees and ants is well-known. You also have collective intelligence in social mammals. They signal each other about danger and where food is. But in the case of humans, our collective intelligence is much more powerful because we have language, we use technology, and we have complex social institutions. It’s a higher level of collective intelligence, and it’s fundamentally based on symbolic manipulation.

In human history, there is an increase in collective intelligence based on media that increase our ability to manipulate symbols. Currently, we are at the state of algorithmic symbol manipulation, but it’s just the beginning of this new era. My work is devoted to the improvement of collective intelligence by exploiting this new medium.

There are a lot of misunderstandings about collective intelligence. The first is that we have to create it; we don’t have to, it already exists. The second idea that should be avoided is that collective intelligence is group think. It’s just the opposite of group think. It is the integration of variety and singularities in the philosophical sense, not the Kurzweilian. It’s not uniform, it’s thinking together.

Cross-Cultural Communication and Collaboration: Case of an International e-Learning Project

Cross-Cultural Communication and Collaboration: Case of an International e-Learning Project | 21st Century Learning and Teaching | Scoop.it

Via Ana Cristina Pratas
Ana Cristina Pratas's curator insight, February 18, 2014 9:18 AM
Abstract

Communication is an indispensable part of international cooperation and it requires managing different cultures. Being prepared to see and understand different values, trying to understand contrasting views in a consortium, can decrease the potential of misperception which otherwise may act as a real barrier to cooperation. This is why international cooperation necessitates negotiation across cultures. In the case of collaboration, parties come together for a joint work which itself may create common values/understanding, besides the set goals. This is because collaboration requires strong we-feeling and commitment. The purpose of this paper is to focus on cross-cultural communication and collaboration in the area of Open and Distance Learning (ODL), concentrating on the communication processes in project management. Cross-cultural studies point to different communicative behaviours of individuals in multinational work environments e.g. the cultural characteristics affect the preferences towards the use of the media. For the purposes of this paper, the authors make a phenomenological-oriented case study of project management based on interviews with partners of a multilateral Grundtvig (adult learning) project, affiliated with distance education institutions in eight different countries. The authors test their assumptions for constructive and cooperative communication in e-Learning projects; delineating the effects of different cultures as regards the expectations from (1) international projects and (2) communication media.
