Balve, Patrick; Krüger, Volker; Tolstrup Sørensen, Lene – European Journal of Engineering Education, 2017
Problem-based learning (PBL) has proven to be highly effective for educating students in an active and self-motivated manner in various disciplines. Student projects carried out following PBL principles are very dynamic and carry a high level of uncertainty, both conditions under which agile project management approaches are assumed to be highly…
