| Summary |
"In the new era of digital communication, collective problem solving is increasingly important. With the internet and digitalization of information, large groups can now solve problems together in completely different ways than are possible in offline settings (Lévy, 1999). These novel online technologies and practices challenge our conceptions of individualized human problem solving in various domains, including art, science, industry, business, education, technology, software design and medicine. It is urgent that we rethink our understanding of intelligence in a profound way. Among scholars, collective intelligence (CI) is increasingly used as a broad, multidisciplinary term to describe new types of collective problem solving. This notion of intelligence is not about individual ability or computer algorithms; rather, it describes how collectives of people, both small and very large groups, solve problems. This book intends to give an overview of some of the most important basic problem-solving mechanisms that comprise CI"-- Provided by publisher. |
