Abstract

Creativity in the educational environment offers an invaluable opportunity to create a learning context with pedagogical strategies that encourage creative thinking. In this approach, students are challenged to address complex problems found in their context, differentiating concepts of creativity and innovation.

The teaching team proposes a learning experience based on the identification of complex problems, where students pose and test hypotheses, consult sources of information to interpret reality, and generate technological alternatives through creative thinking. Subsequently, they select the most appropriate option thinking about the needs and desires of the people receiving the solution, the technical feasibility and viability of the business.

This work describes a pedagogical experience carried out at the university level, in a subject of the fifth year of the Information Systems Engineering (ISI) degree. The actions implemented by the teaching team are detailed to promote the development of creativity and resolution of complex problems, fundamental skills for the future professional life of students. In addition, the students' perception of the proposed learning experience is presented.
