Abstract
The pedagogical concept of Project Organised Problem Based Learning (POPBL) has been implemented since 1974 at Aalborg University. With take-off in the experiences from this concept we have developed methodologies to integrate productive engineering and engineering education. We all know that the best way to learn and understand a theory is trying to see whether you can apply the theory. Engineering is problem solving – by applying results from engineering research. Therefore it is obvious to try to combine the fundamental learning process and engineering problem solving. Recently we have developed a methodology for continuing education integrated into the daily tasks called Facilitated Work Based Learning (FWBL) – mainly based on the same way of thinking. POPBL and FWBL as well as the link between these to methodologies will be presented in this paper.
