41.Problem-based Learning and Creativity

Problem-based learning (PBL) is an educational innovation for greater diversity and engagement in learning. PBL diversifies learning by catering for interdisciplinary knowledge application and multiple perspectives in problem solving. It also enhances engagement through more independent learning, peer learning and teamwork in problem solving with possibilities of future learning technologies. This collection on PBL and creativity provides another quantum leap by linking the quest for novelty, creativity and innovation with PBL. One of the key features of the PBL environment is immersion in a problem context. In this volume, we see how such immersion develops not only problem-solving acumen but also insights, intuition and inventive thinking. This volume captures examples and ideas of the interlink of PBL with creative ways of knowing, creative processes, creative learning environments and creative pedagogies.

KEY FEATURES
(1) First collection of its kind that brings together two important fields: the practice of problem-based learning and the applicability of creativity.
(2) PBL with an eclectic philosophy drawing on the best of various PBL models in real practice across disciplines and contexts.
(3) Creativity applied in the context of generative and divergent thinking, psychological and social contexts, and innovation learning environments.
(4) Edited by renowned international scholar on problem-based learning with perspective grounded in psychology and learning science.
(5) International contributions by scholars and practitioners in PBL across Asia, Europe, USA and Australia

47.DENTAL ANATOMY, PHYSIOLOGY AND OCCULSION (7th Edition)

One of the major goals of previous editions has been to provide details about the morphology of human teeth that are relevant to the practice of dentistry. The importance of specific anatomical features of a particular tooth to the diagnosis and treatment of oral diseases has received very little attention in dental research and hypotheses regarding such associations go untested and remain to be verified by appropriate research. Past assumptions about the relationship between contours and periodontal health continue to be reflected clinically in restored contours that have very little relationship to function or aesthetics. Additional coverage of this subject has been provided in this edition. Relationships between developmental grooves. occlusal relations, pulp chamber and root canal morphology. and the development of cracked teeth and pain (cracked tooth syndrome) remain virtually unresearched. How then does the clinician prevent cusp fracture or approach the restoration of a tooth (e.g.. the distolingual cusp of the mandibular first molar) with silver (amalgam)? Part of the answer must relate to the anatomy of developmental grooves, ocClusal relations. facets of wear, and bruxism. Potential lines of fracture in developmental grooves have been included in tl1'is edition. Of particular interest in this edition are the recent approaches to data concerning standards of human tooth formation and dental age assessment. These kinds of data have relevance to some clinical problems. as well as to other fields. Although the dentition may be the single best indicator of chronological age in juveniles. There are important gaps in available sources of tooth formation chronologies. This e-book contains 485 pages.

Scientific theories are a type of model designed as general explanatory statements about the workings of nature. A hypothesis is a logical and rational explanation of a series of critical observations that have not yet been disproved or proved, nor accepted by the scientific community.
