This article is about facilitating collaborative, creative improvisations in learning with Information
and Communication Technologies (ICT) and in so doing enhancing under-utilised
creative possibilities in education and development in schools, universities, workplaces and
in every-day life. Improvisation is defined and earlier research on supporting creative improvisations
with ICT is outlined. There follows a conceptual framing where improvisation
is seen as a creative outcome of certain cultural ecological interactions in learning environments.
It is proposed that these creative improvisational interactions can be facilitated by ICT,
and developmental ideas are presented. The purpose of the article is to review current practice
and integrate it within an appropriate conceptual framework and thus outline a research and
development agenda for future innovative work in the field.
