Traditional assessments in undergraduate psychology often prioritise technical accuracy over creativity. In response to growing calls for more inclusive, flexible, and student-centered pedagogy, this article presents two case studies on the use of the 'unessay' in mid-level undergraduate psychology courses. The unessay allows students to…

Currently, students tend to be less innovative and creative in learning and its implementation in everyday life. Project-Based Learning (PjBL) is a learning strategy oriented towards contextual problem solving to find solutions based on the experiences of students so that they can be more creative and innovative. This research aims to reveal how…

Design and Technology (D&T) in the UK is approaching a crisis point, with declining enrolment, staffing shortages and increasing marginalisation in the curriculum. However, this paper argues that D&T is not a problem to be solved. Rather, it is a solution to be scaled. Positioned at the intersection of material practice, iteration and…

Within creative domains in studio- and project-based education, documentation is often central to demonstrating outcomes, process, and progress. Despite much prior work into the instructional practices, technologies, and tools that support cultivating documentation practices, no prior work explores the student valuing and perception of…

Collaborative creativity (cocreativity) is essential to generate original solutions for complex challenges faced in organisations. Effective cocreativity requires the orchestration of cognitive and social processes at a high level. Artificial Intelligence (AI) techniques, specifically deep learning sentence embedding models, have emerged as…

The long-standing traditions of the dissertation are long overdue for a challenge. Creative and disruptive thinkers operate with a default "what if?" mindset that helps them challenge the status quo (Carter & Krahenbuhl, 2022). It is time for creative minds in higher education to kick-start how and why they see new opportunities…

After waiting in a long line for your favourite cup of coffee, you finally sit down with your mug and find that the coffee is still scalding hot! How long do you need to wait before you can enjoy it? Once it cools enough, how much time do you have to enjoy it? Are there ways to speed up the process? These questions motivate the presented modelling…

The objective of this research was to assess the efficacy of project-based learning in enhancing the analysis of student worksheets in the domains of Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, and Mathematics (STEAM) with the integration of the ecoprint technique, focusing on its influence on student motivation and creativity. This investigation was…

Compared to more complex personality assessments, Wired That Way by Marita Littauer, presents four personality types that students find easy to understand and internalize: Popular Sanguine, Powerful Choleric, Perfect Melancholy, and Peaceful Phlegmatic. Students' awareness of their own and their peers' classification in this comprehensive…

This quasi-experimental study investigates the effectiveness of project-based learning (PjBL) and its integrated science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) variant (PjBL-STEM) in enhancing scientific creativity among high school students. Conducted in an Indonesian senior high school, 69 tenth-grade students were assigned to an…

Background: Early childhood education (ECE) is crucial in cultivating creativity, especially in today's tech-savvy world. This study explores the impact of collaborative project-based learning (PjBL) with computer and play motivation on kindergarten children's creativity. Aim: Our research aimed to determine if collaborative PjBL, combined with…

Project-Based Learning (PjBL) has become an essential pedagogical approach in mathematics education, fostering critical thinking, problem-solving and student engagement. As its implementation continues to expand, a bibliometric analysis is necessary to examine the prevailing landscape, emerging trends, leading contributors and core research themes…

Background/purpose: Learning chemistry is often considered challenging due to its abstract nature. To address this, the application of Project-Based Learning (PjBL) emphasizes learning through real-world projects to enhance conceptual understanding. The Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM) approach enriches this process by…

The enhancement of higher-order thinking skills (HOTS) can be achieved through the implementation of active learning models. The current study aimed to examine the efficacy of the Pj4CS (Integrated Project-Based and 4C-Scaffolding) learning model on pre-service biology teachers' HOTS. This study employed a quasi-experimental design. The…

Purpose: Design thinking, as a creative and innovative methodology, has been proposed as a process for non-designers to address complex problems. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effectiveness of using design thinking to foster English-major students' team creativity and collaboration. Design/methodology/approach: This study…
