阿根廷vs墨西哥竞猜 ’s dr. pauline sameshima has been renewed as a canada research chair in arts integrated studies.

“research helps build the life we want now and for future societies,” said dr. sameshima, a professor in the faculty of education. “imagination allows researchers to construct narratives, stories, and mythologies of the kind of world we wish to occupy. as we think and imagine, we construct a new society.

“the knowledge economy has been replaced by the creative economy, bringing to the forefront worldwide studies that link weak creativity development at work and school to unhealthy economic and societal well-being,” she said. “advances in canada’s creativity will depend on broader audiences being able to participate in active learning and making at all levels. creativity is not relegated to artists.”

the canada research chairs program, which attracts world-class researchers to universities, has positioned canada as an international leader and destination of choice in research and development. the research has potential benefits for canadians and their families, businesses, practitioners and policy-makers. 

dr. john o’meara, dean of lakehead’s faculty of education, said dr. sameshima will continue working with partners and faculty in thunder bay, other parts of canada, and internationally to develop creative ways of exploring and expressing research.

“we are proud to have dr. sameshima renewed as a crc and look forward to seeing her research reach broad audiences through the arts,” dr. o’meara said.

dr. sameshima's research projects include the implementation of creativity propulsion theories, community-engaged research, prenatal education access, dementia studies, and designing teaching and learning models. her position, funded by the social sciences and humanities research council, has been renewed for five years.
