Description: Abstract:
This study investigated the degree to which various creative problem solving techniques taught in a graduate level course were applied by students in their personal and professional settings. The impact of the training was assessed through the use of student surveys administered at three months, six months and one year intervals. The results indicate that students trained in Creative Problem Solving techniques are able to apply many of the techiques learned in the course in their personal and professional lives. Furthermore, those techniques were found to be useful to the students up to a year after the course. Students also reported implementing various outcomes from challenges worked on in the course.
