Abstract
Universities are committed to preparing students to think creatively and entrepreneurially. According to Pinto, a university is a place of professional education that promotes the articulation of more effective pedagogical alternatives, the integration of theory and practice, and the resolution of real-world problems through the generation of critical and reflective actions informed by concrete experiences. Educational innovation influences the transformation of methodologies, instructional methods, and students' learned skills. Combining innovation and learning increases public awareness of this issue. This chapter aims to determine whether innovation is incorporated into teaching, whether it is incorporated into course planning, what is the students' perception of it, and the differences between cultures – taking into consideration higher education institutions from Portugal and Poland.
