Incorporating design thinking in project-based learning (PjBL) can generate a new praxis to epitomise an ecology of active-learner approaches and embrace the authenticity of collaborative problem-based learning (PBL). Design-oriented disciplines in higher education are expanding their teaching and research objectives to prepare future designers to…

The ideas of project-based language learning (PBLL) align well with the action-oriented approach, which is considered a promising approach in language education (Piccardo & North, 2019). In this study, we carried out the scoping review of empirical research articles describing the implementation of PBLL in higher education during the period…

A scoping review (also called a scoping study) is an increasingly popular type of literature review in diverse fields. Aiming to promote this research methodology among those researching project-based learning (PBL), the article provides a thorough overview of scoping review methodology by reviewing its history and development, elaborating on the…

This paper addresses one of the major confusions in the study and practice of problem-based learning today, namely the use of the term "problem-based learning" to refer to both the small-group tutorial method pioneered by McMaster University and Maastricht University in medical education, and the problem-oriented project-work method…

Interdisciplinary competence is important in academia for both employability and sustainable development. However, to date, there are no specific interdisciplinary education models and, naturally, no empirical studies to assess them. Since problem-based learning (PBL) and project-based learning (PjBL) are learning approaches that emphasize…
