In the world of academia, the divide between groundbreaking research and real-world impact has been a persistent challenge. Scholars, researchers, and academic inventors often find themselves grappling with the intricate process of turning their innovative ideas into tangible solutions that can benefit society, and also secure funding. This disconnect not only leads to the underutilization of valuable intellectual resources but also results in missed opportunities to address pressing societal issues. Moreover, technology transfer offices often struggle with knowledge disparities between inventors and managers, hindering the efficient commercialization of groundbreaking inventions. Converting Ideas to Innovation With Lean Canvas for Invention emerges as a beacon of hope, offering a transformative solution to this longstanding problem. This book introduces the Lean Canvas for Invention (LCI), an academic tool meticulously crafted to bridge the gap between academic research and real-world innovation. The LCI serves as a compass, guiding academic scholars through the complex journey from idea inception to successful commercialization. It equips researchers with the essential knowledge and strategies needed to identify societal problems, develop inventive solutions, secure grants, and navigate the intricate landscape of technology transfer.

Key authors in the field from Europe and the Americas present a comprehensive overview of the central questions at the heart of the book. They contribute to this process of reflection by taking diverse methodological, pedagogical and conceptual approaches to analyse the ways in which digital tools could advance the development of historical comprehension in the fields of formal and informal history education in different settings as schools, museums, exhibitions, sites of memory, videogames and films.Drawing together a disciplinary diversity that approaches the topic from the viewpoints of collective memory, global history, historical thinking and historical consciousness, the book's cutting-edge content offers interested academics and practitioners with a broad-based view on the current state of debate in this area, examined via theoretical exploration in-depth case analysis.

Is there hope for nations that are spinning out of control? There is! God wants to raise up generations of inspired and well-equipped youth to penetrate every segment of society with grace, mercy, and truth-young people who will become leaders, fitly joined with others, who can advance the Kingdom of God throughout every segment of culture.We need young people like David who slew the giant, Joseph who overcame the rejection of being trafficked as a teen to later save nations about to perish by famine, Moses who moved beyond his early education by heathen teachers and answered the call to lead his people out of bondage into life, freedom, and transformation, and finally Caleb who refused to give in to doubt when only he and one other chose to believe God. We need young people who will grow up into committed adults and seniors, who like Caleb as an older man of 85 years, was willing and equipped to take on new challenges as he said in Joshua 14:12, "Give me this mountain for I am well able to take it."We must inspire and equip children from every level of society to turn the world right-side up like Jesus's disciples did. He was The Good Teacher, and they were trained to seek first the Kingdom of God regardless of where they landed in culture. Equipping Generations for Kingdom Advance is designed to help schools, teachers, parents, Sunday Schools, churches, and youth groups bring out the best of each child by guiding them into the tenor of their way and into God's prophetic Destiny.This is the first in a series of books designed to begin at lower grade levels and progress one book at a time, flowing through high school and beyond. Each book will advance in what are called, "The Seven Mountains of Culture." It is our hope that young people will understand how they are uniquely called to advance the Kingdom of God in the following mountains: Family, Religion, Government/Military, Business, Education, Media, and Arts/Entertainment.
