abstract
Dr. Diana Stentoft
“PBL as a challenge and as opportunity for innovative and interdisciplinary learning”
One of the key characteristics often attributed to a problem-based approach to learning in higher education is the opening of possibilities for innovative and interdisciplinary learning processes. Seeking ways of enhancing students’ innovative and interdisciplinary competencies is also one argument often presented when universities around the world make the decision to transform into PBL. This talk will address assumptions about PBL as an educational strategy leading to students developing competencies in innovation and interdisciplinarity further. The talk will highlight some key principles of PBL and discuss these in relation to development of competencies and our expectations towards students and their navigation in their education. Thus some of the questions raised are:
- How does PBL support and challenge students to work across disciplinary boundaries?
- How can supervisors and facilitators support students to deal with disciplinary uncertainties of complex problems?
- How may PBL contribute towards innovation and entrepreneurship in higher education?
The talk is based on research literature on PBL from around the world coupled with solid experiences from Aalborg University, Denmark, where PBL has constituted the educational approach since the establishment in 1974.
abstract
“Ingredients for Innovation: Creating the Design Thinking Learning Experience”
Design thinking gives students a framework for using their knowledge from other fields to create innovative, real-world-ready solutions for a complex world. We teach this collaborative, problem-based, human-centered innovation process at both the HPI D-School in Potsdam and the Stanford d.school, and its spread to other learning institutions has mirrored its uptake in businesses large and small around the world. However, teaching design thinking is not simply handing down a process: in a challenge-based learning environment like ours, our conceptual approach, how we teach is as important as what we teach. The design of our program is what makes it work, and I’ll offer a look at some of the elements, from the way we coach coaches and mentor students, to how we design our studio space, to our process from crafting design challenges to finding new solutions with our project partners.

About Lodz
Łódź is the third-largest city in Poland. Located in the central part of the country, it had a population of 742,387 in December 2009. It is the capital of Łódź Voivodeship, and is approximately 135 kilometers (84 mi) South-West of Warsaw. The city’s coat of arms depicts a boat. It alludes to the city’s name which translates literally as the “boat”.
An important industrial center, the city, dubbed the Polish Manchester, has been famous for its textile industry; however, after years of prosperity during the socialist era, the city experienced decline when the communism fell throughout the Central and Eastern Europe. In recent years, Łódź was seemingly forgotten by the government, investors, and travelers in favor for other cities, such as Kraków, Warsaw or Wrocław, but the situation is changing now in favour of the city.
About TUL
Lodz University of Technology is a well-established higher education institution with an evolved structure. Prospective students have nine faculties to choose from as well as many additional units which enable interdisciplinary studies, provide study support, foreign language instruction, entertainment and sports.
TUL is the fourth best university of technology in Poland according to the 2014 Perspektywy magazine university ranking.
In 2009, TUL was the first university in Poland to be awarded the prestigious ECTS Label Certificate by the European Commission. In 2013, not only was the University once again recognized with the ECTS Label, this time for the years 2013 – 2016, but was also awarded the Diploma Supplement Label.
More than 2000 students have graduated from programs offered in foreign languages. TUL is the only university in Poland with such a wide range of programs in foreign languages offered at its International Faculty of Engineering. On top of that, selected courses are taught in English at each of TUL’s faculties.
Every year, several hundred of our students – the highest number of all technical universities in Poland – participate in exchanges at universities abroad – which was acknowledged by the National Erasmus Agency in Poland by awarding the University with the title of “Mobility Friendly University”.
More than 30 percent of the entire summer student placement exchange is carried out within the IAESTE program, which means that TUL receives and sends out the highest number of students to complete their placements abroad. TUL is also one of two Polish universities participating in the Campus Europae student exchange network.
