One major complaint was the simplicity of the quizzes, sincedrawing figures and more substantial responses from the students were not possible.Teaching by Examples and Learning by Doing (TELD) is a pedagogy based around cooperativeand interactive learning, but requires specific resources for successful implementation.

of generating diverse and originalideas with fluency and speed. Even during design experiences, neither the importance ofcreativity nor various methods to boost it is covered, leaving students mostly on their own for alimited duration for “brainstorming”. However, creativity and originality are among the mostsignificant skills employers want today; and they are also projected to be in demand in years tocome (see Figure 1).Figure 1. A Comparison on Skills Demand – 2018 vs. 2022 (The Future of Jobs Report, 2018,pp.12 [4])To a certain extent, this rather ad hoc approach to creativity is due to a lack of knowledge on thecognitive and neural mechanisms underlying divergent thinking, and creative ideation moregenerally.

Estimation specifically allowsentrepreneurs to make quick inexpensive decisions, which would otherwise cost time andresources. This paper shares research work that involves various, example-based estimationmethods that are useful in engineering. The methods provide rough predictions of expectedoutcome, allowing students to intelligently guess a reasonable range of expected outcomes, givenbasic raw data within its necessary parameters.
