Abstract
An urgent challenge in manufacturing PBL, including applied course in polytechnic universities, is scientific evaluation and appropriate intervention of competence for process innovation. This study therefore reviews studies which recently attract attention, that is, on innovation, teamwork in manufacturing, team-based learning, project-based learning and team learning at work. The findings suggested that: (1) active learning approaches have a limit for such needs of improving evaluation and intervention in manufacturing PBL; (2) working team learning theories have verified team learning’s impact on innovation but they still need to identify antecedent factors; (3) there is a need to investigate learning aspects of team work itself in case of manufacturing.
