Teaching Creative Problem Solving in Engineering Education
Abstract
In this chapter, the principles of active learning and the contents of a creativity course entitled: Creativity and Problem Solving, are presented. The main purpose of this course was to create a space for discussing, reflecting and experimenting with creativity, creative processes and creative methods of relevance for university students working with problem-solving approaches. This course was developed at the Technical University of Denmark during the period 1998-2008 for engineering students of various specialities. It started with very few students and developed to a very popular course attracting many students from abroad. The selected themes, the methods and techniques, the structure of the course, the learning processes and the achieved results can be applied to a similar course for university students of other fields such as IT, Mangement Sciences, System Sciences, Computer Sciences, Design, Agriculture, Businees, Art and Education, etc. Finally some reflections, recommendations, and conclusions are also presented.
