Abstract

This paper discusses two learning concepts (problem-based learning,research-based learning) as promising approaches for initiating deep and sustainable learning processes. Drawing on Dewey and others, we use the notion of crisis and uncertainty as lenses to help locate ways of conceptualizing the beginning of learning. We present empirical findings from two research projects that were influenced by the concepts of crisis, uncertainty and learning. We close with a critical discussion of implications for the future of learning and the role of teachers in higher education.
