Redesigning higher education is one of the most widely discussed topics among educators, parents, and other community stakeholders. This is due to the current developments in digital technologies and onset of the fourth industrial revolution which is set to alter the way people live and work. This chapter suggests the implementation of the flipped classroom model as an appropriate approach for equipping students with creative abilities, problem solving skills, thinking skills, and lifelong learning skills. Eight in-service teachers pursuing a postgraduate course on a part-time basis participated in a qualitative study. The study was conducted using asynchronous virtual focus group dialogue sessions. The study addressed three main questions: 1) why they adopted a flipped classroom model, 2) how they implemented it, and 3) what fourth industrial revolution skills were developed using this model. On the whole, this approach created an active and collaborative environment which enabled students to demonstrate their creativity and problem solving skills needed for future careers.

Societies and businesses are faced with problems that contain too many new, unknown, and unintended consequences and even more so as humans have to face and deal with more complexity created by the Fourth Industrial Revolution. These problems have become ‘wicked problems'. Creativity is needed to solve problems as it allows people to create new ideas by using their mental toolkit, creative characteristics and behaviours. It is possible to solve wicked problems using collective and creative problem-solving approaches and tools. This means that people need to work together to generate creative ideas to find novel and breakthrough solutions. To try and find a “silver bullet” to solve wicked problems, various problem-solving approaches and tools were evaluated and it became evident that a combination of approaches supported by various tools might lead to solving wicked problems collectively and creatively.

Background: This study was conducted to examine the effects of Action Learning-Children’s Nursing Clinical Program (AL-CNCP) for nursing students. Methods: A quasi-experimental study with a non-equivalent control group pretest-posttest design was used. The study participants were 82 nursing students (42 in the experimental group and 40 in the control group) from G metropolitan city in South Korea. The experimental group took part in the AL-CNCP, which was scheduled to take place twice per week for 10 days, while the control group took part in a traditional pediatric nursing practice education. The data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, χ²-test, ANCOVA, and an independent t-test using SPSS/WIN 22.0. Conclusion: There were significant increases in problem solving abilities (t=4.49, p<.001), competency in nursing skills (t=3.99, p<.001), self-efficacy for group work (t=3.91, p<.001), and team efficacy (t=2.25, p=.027) in the experimental group compared to the control group. Based on the findings, this study indicates that AL-CNCP is an effective teaching-learning method to improve problem solving abilities, competency in nursing skills, self-efficacy for group work, and team efficacy of nursing students.
