Transdisciplinarité

http://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transdisciplinarit%C3%A9 Un article de Wikipédia, l'encyclopédie libre. La transdisciplinarité est une posture scientifique et intellectuelle. Elle a pour objectif la compréhension de la complexité du monde moderne et du présent. Le mot transdisciplinarité a été inventé par Jean Piaget , en 1970 .

Category:Transdisciplinarity

As the prefix "trans" indicates, transdisciplinarity (word introduced in 1970 by Jean Piaget) concerns that which is at once between the disciplines, across the different disciplines, and beyond all discipline. Its goal is the understanding of the present world, of which one of the imperatives is the unity of knowledge. Basarab Nicolescu defines transdisciplinarity via three methodological postulates: existence of Levels of Reality and Levels of Perception, the included middle logic and complexity.

Interdisciplinarity involves the combining of two or more academic disciplines into one activity (e.g. a research project). It is about creating something new by crossing boundaries, and thinking across them. It is related to an interdiscipline or an interdisciplinary field, which is an organizational unit that crosses traditional boundaries between academic disciplines or schools of thought , as new needs and professions have emerged. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Interdisciplinarity

Transdisciplinarity

Transdisciplinarity connotes a research strategy that crosses many disciplinary boundaries to create a holistic approach. It applies to research efforts focused on problems that cross the boundaries of two or more disciplines, such as research on effective information systems for biomedical research (see bioinformatics ), and can refer to concepts or methods that were originally developed by one discipline, but are now used by several others, such as ethnography, a field research method originally developed in anthropology but now widely used by other disciplines. [ edit ] Usage Transdisciplinarity has two common meanings: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transdisciplinarity

CSID - Center for the Study of Interdisciplinarity

http://www.csid.unt.edu/research/theory.html There are at least two approaches that can be taken to research into the state of interdisciplinarity. From the perspective of the mid- to late 20th century, societal pressures revealed gaps and inadequacies in the disciplinary structure of the academy: connections not being made, and topics not being examined. Interdisciplinary programs were developed in areas such as women's studies, gay studies, and environmental studies to address these needs.

Les Metaphores comme Vehicules Transdisciplinaires de l'Avenir

This bibliography closes with a brief selection of works that "theorize interdisciplinarity." While the rest of this bibliography has consisted of theories useful in doing interdisciplinary analysis, the pieces in this section are ones that reflect on what interdisciplinarity is, and on general problems and possibilities of doing interdisciplinary scholarship. These problems and possibilities include institutional issues regarding the academy's disciplinary structures, as well as abstract and practical dimensions of combining, synthesizing, multiplying or otherwise bringing more than a single disciplinary knowledge base to bear on a topic.

Creating a "Fourth Culture" of Knowledge: Jonah Lehrer on Why Science and Art Need Each Other

by Maria Popova From Gertrude Stein to Karl Popper, or how to architect “negative capability” and live with mystery. One of my favorite books of all time is Jonah Lehrer’ s Proust Was a Neuroscientist , which tells the story of how a handful of iconic creators each discovered an essential truth about the mind long before modern science was able to label and pinpoint it — for instance, George Eliot detected neuroplasticity, Gertrude Stein uncovered the deep structure of language, Cézanne fathomed how vision works , and Proust demonstrated the imperfections of memory .

Interdisciplinarité

Un article de Wikipédia, l'encyclopédie libre. L’ interdisciplinarité est l'art de faire travailler ensemble des personnes issues de diverses disciplines scientifiques. L'intérêt est de parvenir à un but commun en confrontant des approches différentes d'un même problème. Richesse initiale du cloisonnement des disciplines [ modifier ] Le concept de discipline scientifique renvoie à « une catégorie organisationnelle au sein de la connaissance scientifique ; elle y institue la division et la spécialisation du travail et elle répond à la diversité des domaines que recouvrent les sciences. Bien qu'englobée dans un ensemble scientifique plus vaste, une discipline tend naturellement à l'autonomie, par la délimitation de ses frontières, le langage qu'elle se constitue, les techniques qu'elle est amenée à élaborer ou à utiliser, et éventuellement par les théories qui lui sont propres » (Morin, 1994).
Quelques notions clés "L'interdisciplinarité, c'est partir d'un projet , d'une problématique, pour faire percevoir, favoriser la recherche des interactions des savoirs et de leur complémentarité, dans un esprit d'ouverture." (***) "L'interdisciplinarité, c'est une association de compétences en vue d'une réalisation commune (étude ou projet)." (***) "L'interdisciplinarité, c'est travailler ensemble pour reconstruire une réalité morcelée artificiellement par le cloisonnement des disciplines et viser l'acquisition de compétences transversales." (***) Il ne s'agit pas de rechercher l'interdisciplinarité parce que c'est une valeur en soi.

L'approche interdisciplinaire

The CRI Located 5 minutes walk from the Luxembourg Gardens at the Paris Descartes Medicine Faculty in Cochin, the Centre for Research and Interdisciplinarity (CRI) was founded in 2005 as a convivial place at the crossroad between Life Sciences and exact, natural, cognitive and social sciences. Renovated in 2009, our environment includes a fully-equipped seminar room, a meeting room, office space for visiting professors, a library and coffee rooms and a modelling as well as wet-lab space. >>>> CRI NEWS
