Background: Researchers may often find it challenging to gather data with underserved populations, even when using traditional qualitative methods. They may also be at risk of further entrenching the hegemony of the dominant narrative, silencing participants' experiences and further marginalising and excluding those most in need. Timelines and other creative methods are useful, sensitive tools that combine flexibility and malleability with an ethical appeal, such as feminist ethics of care.

Background First-year medical students may find it challenging to integrate complex physiological concepts, particularly neuromuscular physiology. While concept mapping has shown promise in medical education, its specific application in teaching intricate physiological mechanisms still needs to be explored. With this background, the objective of the study was to assess the feasibility of using concept mapping among first-year medical students and to explore the perception of students about concept mapping as an educational tool.

Creative Problem Solving (CPS) is an important competency when using digital artifacts for educational purposes. Using a dual-process approach, this study examines the divergent thinking scores (fluidity, flexibility, and originality) and problem-solving speed in CPS of different age groups. Participants engaged in CreaCube CPS tasks with educational robotics for two consecutive instances, with performance analyzed to explore the influence of prior experience and creative intentions.

This study proposes a novel artificial intelligence (AI)-assisted design model that combines Variational Autoencoders (VAE) with reinforcement learning (RL) to enhance innovation and efficiency in cultural and creative product design. By introducing AI-driven decision support, the model streamlines the design workflow and significantly improves design quality. The study establishes a comprehensive framework and applies the model to four distinct design tasks, with extensive experiments validating its performance.
