The aim of this study is to enhance students’ creative problem-solving ability using a project-based learning approach. The study was based on a quasi-experimental design and the participants were 69 postgraduate students in the field of education management. There were 35 of the students assigned to the experimental group, and the remaining 34 to the control group. The experiment was conducted over 15 classes for 2 months. A creative problem-solving questionnaire was used as a pre-test and post-test before and after the experiment. The results showed that the students’ creative problem-solving ability had been effectively enhanced by the intervention of project-based learning, especially in terms of identifying problems, finding solutions and evaluating them.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
