La creatividad vernácula en la era digital: enseñanza de la comunicación publicitaria en entornos conectivos.

This research comes about in response to the demand of centennial and millennial students for new methods to develop creativity through use of new technologies. This paper considers the need to incorporate appropriation as an educational strategy to promote the creative competence in the digital age. The main goal of this work is to promote new didactic methods that allow the integration of social and technological dynamics that determine online daily interactions. The mash- up has been adopted as the main tool to carry out a methodological proposal of teaching innovation in the academic context of Advertising Communication studies. The construction of the model called lateral visual thinking constitutes a revision of the design thinking based on two distinctive characteristics: vernacular creativity and the practice of lateral thinking through the recombination of materials of diverse origin and authorship in the World Wide Web.
