Abstract:
Experiences of the classes of 'Creative Problem Solving
Thinking' at Faculty of Informatics of Osaka Gakuin University are reported. A
course of 15 lectures has been given to 2nd year (and over) students with the
theme of 'Methodologies for Creative Problem Solving'. Since the students do
not have much background knowledge of technologies yet, the course is taught by
giving basics of doing research and thinking and basics of concepts of systems
and functions. Processes of problem solving were explained step by step showing
various examples and different methods mostly of TRIZ and USIT. In the Seminar
Classes, small groups of students were trained on the theme of 'Creative
Problem Solving Thinking' at about 27 classes for 3rd and for 4th year
students. Training is mostly done with group practices by using published or
new case studies. Students have solved various everyday-life problems as their
thesis works. A new Web site "TRIZ Home Page for Students by Students"
has been established in March 2006, posting their thesis woks and discussions
on their findings with TRIZ/USIT. Some case studies of solving everyday-life
problems are demonstrated. ...
