Title: | Modelling a laboratory for ideas as a new tool for fostering engineering creativity | Authors: | Tekić, Željko Tekic A. Todorovic V. |
Issue Date: | 1-Jan-2015 | Journal: | Energy Procedia | Abstract: | © 2015 The Authors. Published by Elsevier Ltd. This is an open access article under the CC BY-NC-ND license. This paper outlines the principles of modelling and designing a laboratory for ideas, an innovative solution dedicated to the development of creativity and creative problem solving skills in an engineering context. Reflecting the objectives, this paper defines the connection between creativity and engineering, adopting them as a single mindset, and describes how creativity should be taught, having in mind new education models at leading engineering schools. It highlights five factors which have a significant impact on creativity of individuals-motivation, environment, knowledge and domain skills, openness to other domains, and open ended problems in assignments. As a co-creative and supportive environment, laboratory for ideas covers these factors and encompasses different groups of actors and activities. By encouraging students' entrepreneurial intentions and practical innovativeness, it is described how it should systematically strengthen both their creativity and engineering mindset. | URI: | https://open.uns.ac.rs/handle/123456789/6515 | ISSN: | 18766102 | DOI: | 10.1016/j.proeng.2015.01.384 |
