Description
Summary:Project-based learning as a principle of the educational process that is being implemented at the universities has a long history. The model of Aalborg University (Denmark) which was created in 1974 to change the traditional approach to teaching students in higher educational institutions of the country is the basic (archetypal) model of project-based learning. The School of Economics and Management of the Far Eastern Federal University is currently implementing its own model of project-based learning (SEM model). This model is developed on the basis of design thinking, which is a methodology for solving ill-structured problems in the face of uncertainty. The implementation of design thinking in the educational process should promote the development of creativity and critical thinking competencies among students, and the organization of project work should contribute to the development of communication skills necessary for interaction with internal and external stakeholders as well as teamwork skills. The purpose of the article is to compare this model with the base model of Aalborg university, to identify the general and the special features of both of these models, to outline prospects for the further development of the SEM model. Thesis: the experience gained at the SEM over the three years of the learning implementation provides an opportunity to create its own systemic model of project-based learning and to recommend its implementation in the other Russian universities.
