IBL: problem solving – students identify information needs, formulate research questions, search appropriate information, share and discuss information in group meetings, use information and insights to develop/describe an outcome – in this course a solution (product+Services) for a defined customer group.

 
Team-based learning: together – students define information needs, find answers to questions, solve tasks and formulate an outcome. Each student should participate actively in and come well prepared to all the group activities. Sharing is the key. Co-creation should happen in dialoque.

International connections

Innovation pedagogy

Innovation pedagogy i.e., Innopeda refers to a learning approach which aims at the development of the innovation abilities of individuals and groups.

The aim of Innopeda is to produce information, skills and attitudes which not only provide a sound basis for success in working life and for developing working life, but also for a good life and building a sustainable future.
