Problem-based Learning and Creativity

Problem-based learning (PBL) is an educational innovation for greater diversity and engagement in learning. PBL diversifies learning
by catering for interdisciplinary knowledge application and multiple
perspectives in problem solving. It also enhances engagement through
more independent learning, peer learning and teamwork in problem solving with possibilities of future learning technologies. This collection on PBL and creativity provides another quantum leap by linking the quest for novelty, creativity and innovation
with PBL. One of the key features of the PBL environment is immersion
in a problem context. In this volume, we see how such immersion
develops not only problem-solving acumen but also insights, intuition
and inventive thinking. This volume captures examples and ideas of the
interlink of PBL with creative ways of knowing, creative processes,
creative learning environments and creative pedagogies.
