Abstract

This paper deals with a progress report on the execution of the sense making in the curriculum development for global AGILE Problem-Based Learning incorporating computational thinking enhanced with ICT, which has been based on the collaborative endeavors between School of Business Management at Nanyang Polytechnic University in Singapore (NPU) and Center for Teaching and Learning at Kansai University (KU), intending to foster the Vision 2020 skills as well as the future work skills defined by Institute of the Future. Although Problem-Based Learning has been ubiquitous in the realm of the face-to-face onsite learning environment, the project is based on PBL in which project team members with common interests in entrepreneurship from both universities organize several teams to aim for startup business plans with simulation in the virtual learning environment. The paper will walk readers through the rationale behind such curriculum as well as the entire process of the curriculum development from the initial preparation to the final product including the assessment. The key factors of such curriculum development are elaborated in the conclusion.
