Abstract
This paper introduces the Resonant Learning (RL) framework, building on Hartmut Rosa's sociological theory of resonance and Graham Wallas' theory of the creative process. The RL framework aims to contribute to teacher education by delineating resonant learning spaces in an increasingly digitally-mediated post-digital educational landscape. This paper suggests that the RL framework has potential to enhance teaching and learning by integrating principles of resonance, second-order resonance and creativity. The research aligns with the growing need to focus on Creativity, Innovation, and Entrepreneurship (CIE) and Maker Education (ME) with the use of Information and Communication Technology (ICT) in education. The laptop orchestra (LO) is discussed as a model resonant learning space that facilitates CIE & ME. This study highlights the significance of RL in supporting pre-service teacher training by fostering ICT efficacy, agency, creativity, and digital competencies essential for future-oriented pedagogy.
