Medialogy – Interdisciplinary Education Challenge with Focus on PBL and Students’ Learning

The paper investigates the problems of establish an understanding of the competence connected to a new interdisciplinary program called Medialogy. The program is introduced and a definition and understanding of an interdisciplinary education and competence is discussed. One of the questions raised in the paper are: How do students carry out and combine the different disciplines in an interdisciplinary way when working with their projects? We are analysing 6 semester projects as cases to find how the students are dealing with the PBL approach and the interdisciplinary nature of their study. The conclusion is that the projects are dealing with Medialogy competences in an interdisciplinary way and that PBL is an effective method to achieve interdisciplinarity.
