Information

Ziele, Inhalte und Methode der Lehrveranstaltung

The world is growing in complexity. One leading factor is the exponential growth of knowledge. Researchers estimate that knowledge doubles every 12 months. According to IBM, the doubling will soon occur every 12 hours. The exponential growth of knowledge comes along with the education and development of hyper-specialized experts. Expertise research answers the question on how experts are made in general and in particular on how experts are made in specific domains such as math, surgery, chess, sports etc. This course goes one step further and tries to examine if there is a cultural component to the development of expertise. More specifically we ask whether or not an East Asian model of expertise exists, and if so, how does it relate to the global competitiveness of the East Asian region.
