디자인 PBL 수업이 창의적 문제해결력, 수업만족도에 미치는 효과

초록

With rapid social changes in the 21st century, the creative problem-solving ability has become one of the major topics in the field of education design. This study was carried out to develop a design of aiming to look into the creative problem-solving ability and instruction satisfaction in university students. Thus, we compared and analyzed differences of the creative problem-solving ability and instruction satisfaction between the following two groups: an experimental group of 40 students that formed two design classes, in which case the Design PBL was applied, and a comparison group that received general lessons. Our results were the following: First, the design course that applied PBL more effective in improving the creative problem-solving ability than general classes. Considering the creative problem-solving ability sub-variables, it was particularly effective in improving divergent thinking and decision making. Second, in the course for design majors, the PBL methods appeared to have a greater effect on lesson satisfaction than general classes. In particular, there was a significant difference in the interest level, which is a sub-variable of lesson satisfaction. With these outcomes, the Design PBL was effective considering the improvement of creative design thinking for systematic problem solving. Furthermore, through team activities, the Design PBL provided a great opportunity for the students to build up their character by learning to care and by improving cooperativeness, responsibility, and communicative competence, which designers should possess. Study findings suggest that Design PBL expansion is necessary to bolster problem-solving abilities, cooperativeness, and creativity, which are core competencies required in the era of the Fourth Industrial Revolution.
