The objective of this research is to show how to design, implement, and establish how and why the Design thinking-based innovative teaching method is more effective. Following an action research method, a design thinking-based innovative pedagogy was introduced among the first-year postgraduate media students to teach a few modules of the course 'Television and Video Production'. An ill-defined story idea for an animated sci-fi television series was presented to student groups, and they were asked to develop upon the idea as well as provide some creative solutions to the problems. The entire activity was carried out in five different stages, such as Empathize, Define, Ideate, Prototype, and Test. At the end of the activity, the effectiveness of design thinking as an innovative method was analyzed. The findings suggest that design thinking was effective in imparting 21st-century skills, such as empathy, critical thinking, problem-solving, collaboration, creativity, and innovation.

As an EU member state, Latvia has set high-quality education provision as a goal in all education cycles. An innovative project called SCHOOL 2030 (SCHOOL 2030) was launched in Latvia in 2016 and is working to introduce a competency-based approach that would promote a holistic view of school subjects. Within the project, a team of experts is working on a framework and content (methodologies, materials, etc.) for integrated learning, using a competency-based approach in specific sciences organized around seven thematic areas: languages; social and civic education; culture and arts, science, mathematics, technology, health and sport. This study is concerned with a new approach to problem-solving in Technology teacher education applying the design thinking approach as an innovative methodology. The aim of the research was to identify the interpretations of design thinking, the importance of the stages of the design process in the design thinking process and the achievement of the result, as well as the aspects of logic and creativity in design thinking. In the research process, bibliometry was conducted to gain the understanding of design thinking and its connection with logical and creative thinking. A survey as the research method was applied to explore the applicability and importance of design thinking in the study course Design and Technology. The survey questions were related to the understanding of design thinking, the process, its main stages and role in creative activity and development of design products. The data obtained revealed that the design-thinking approach can be effectively incorporated into the Technology Education field to promote more purposeful problem-solving. Both logic and creativity are present within the application of the design-thinking approach.

Scientific discourse in the pedagogical sphere implies coverage of the activity of all subjects of the educational space. Scientific exploration aims to coordinate the positions of education applicants, teachers, and representatives of the administrative cluster possible in the organization of a comprehensive pedagogical discourse. The task of the article is to develop effective theoretical-methodological and practically oriented guidelines, which will become a reference point for the construction of higher professional education of the future. The methodological arsenal for conducting this type of research served as general scientific, educational-pedagogical, and philosophical methods. The key issues shaping the agenda of pedagogical discourse on the prospects of education are the definition of short-term pedagogical innovations and long-term strategies for the development of higher professional education. A promising area of research is the correlation between the potential of the educational environment and the potential of socio-cultural space. Thus, pedagogical discourse is called to implement synergetic models of educational development. Despite the conservatism of education, the present and, even more so, the future of this sphere requires innovative transformations. Scientific-technological and humanitarian-informational progress allows updating education and forecasting its development based on further transformations. Higher vocational education is in dire need of constant updating of the pedagogical discourse because the abilities and skills acquired (acquired) by future professionals immediately turn into indicators of professionalism, which is a determining factor in the competitive environment of the modern world. Flexibility, mobility, multidisciplinarity, openness, accessibility, efficiency - are the attitudes that guide the construction of future education perspectives and meet the principles of dynamism in this sphere of social activity.
