Abstract:
It is difficult for one enterprise to separately master all the knowledge related to its product innovation design. Aiming at this problem, open innovation is introduced to product design. Key technologies of product open innovation design based on knowledge are researched. Based on the ontology expression of internal innovation knowledge, external innovation knowledge and knowledge of innovation theory, open innovation design from function to structure is achieved by gradually indexing. Each functional structure is considered as a gene. Structure innovation design is optimized by cross evolution and variation evolution, achieving organic fusion internal and external innovative design knowledge.

Abstract:
Purpose Knowledge sharing in a master-apprentice pattern is the process of transferring tacit knowledge from masters to apprentices. In addition, 90 per cent of knowledge required for organizational innovation is tacit knowledge in the master-apprentice pattern. The purpose of this paper is to analyze the evolution of knowledge sharing in master-apprentice pattern and explore the consequences of how to improve the knowledge sharing in the master-apprentice pattern. Design/methodology/approach This paper uses asymmetric evolutionary game theory to study the evolutionary track of knowledge sharing in master-apprentice pattern of innovative organizations by analyzing the utility of masters and apprentices during the process of knowledge sharing in master-apprentice pattern of the innovative organization. Findings The results reveal that when the masters obtained utility from sharing knowledge is greater than that from hoarding knowledge, and the apprentices obtained utility from studying hard is greater than the costs, the innovative organization can get the largest utility from the knowledge sharing in the mater-apprentice pattern. Research limitations/implications The limitation of the research is that this paper mainly studies knowledge sharing among individuals and does not research knowledge sharing between individuals and organizations. Practical implications This research has extended the understanding of knowledge sharing in master-apprentice and its evolution path. Also, the obtained findings are conducive to promoting knowledge sharing in master-apprentice and improving human resource management in innovative organizations. Originality/value This paper attempts to construct the evolution path of knowledge sharing in master-apprentice pattern, which is a useful exploration of the dynamics of knowledge sharing in master-apprentice pattern and makes up for the shortcomings of the existing research.

Abstract:
Purpose – One approach for CEOs seeking to improve the effectiveness of their company’s innovation initiatives is to imitate the role that a “Scrum Master” has in high speed software development projects. Fundamentally, a Scrum Master is in the business of speeding up the rate of innovation in a software project. Design/methodology/approach – By championing Agile methodology, CEOs can focus innovation initiatives upon developing what customers prioritize and value. Pushing the organization to involve customers, and in some cases suppliers, increases the value added and value creation of the project. Findings – When a CEO practices acting like a Scrum Master, he or she does so by pursuing four goals: Keeping innovation work cycles or “Sprints” short. Focusing upon value creation and customer involvement throughout the development process. Removing barriers to development that prevent the software programmers from doing their job. Attempting to shelter developers from counterproductive interventions by external managers. Practical implications – By championing Agile teams, the CEO can communicate his or her expectation that innovations will be tested on clients and be available as a “court of last resort” to cut through the barriers and delays that prevent a development team from moving forward.” Originality/value – This article is unconventional in that it suggests that CEOs need to be particularly aware of how their actions in support of Agile teams can build medium and long term organizational capabilities. Top management oversight of Agile teams can strengthen strategic relationships with internal stakeholders, customers and suppliers.

Abstract:
Purpose Scrum, an agile software development method, has gained major interest among software development organizations. The scrum master should be well equipped with specific leadership traits and exhibit leadership behavior to effectively manage his/her team. However, in a distributed team, which is spread across geographies, having scrum master to lead the project team at each location is not viable. Therefore, every member in the team is expected to have the capability to become one. This paper aims to explore the leadership mechanisms desired for effective functioning of distributed self-organized scrum team members, leading to project success and overall customer satisfaction. Design/methodology/approach A qualitative research methodology with an open-ended questionnaire is followed by semi-structured in-depth interviews. The unit of analysis is a scrum master. Findings The qualitative findings unearth the kind of leadership mechanisms required for scrum masters and the team members in a self-organizing scrum team, leading to their project success and customer satisfaction. It includes a set of leadership approaches and behaviors explicitly related to the role of scrum masters. Both inductive and deductive approaches are used to develop a leadership framework applicable for distributed self-organized scrum teams. Research limitations/implications The proposed framework can be empirically tested with a large number of teams and more software organizations. Practical implications Organizations can use these identified specific leadership approaches and behaviors as parameters for identifying and selecting the potential scrum masters. They can be further trained on them to be an effective scrum master. Originality/value There is scant literature on the leadership mechanisms necessary for distributed scrum teams and their impact on project performance. This paper addresses this gap.

Abstract:
The Education Unit Management Course (EUM) is a compulsory subject in the Master of Education Administration (MEA) study program, Faculty of Teacher Training and Education (FTTE), University of Bengkulu (Unib). This course has a study load of 3 credits (2-1). Lectures should combine theory and practice based on innovation. However, in its implementation it is only conventional (less instilling innovation behavior in students). This condition is not in accordance with the policy of the ministry of education. This study aims to design a new innovation-based lecture management in EUM courses. This research uses action research. The research subjects are EUM lecturers in the MEA, FTTE, and Unib study program. Data were collected using FGD, observation, and innovation test scales. Data were analyzed by descriptive analysis technique. The results showed that the new design for the management of innovation-based lectures in the EUM course was based on the vision and mission of the study program, the output of graduate competencies, the need for learning outcomes in accordance with the demands of the field, and the need for practice based on school innovation. This new design has a positive effect on increasing innovation behavior in students. The novelty of this research is that a new design for the management of EUM lectures based on innovation in a school setting can make a positive contribution to the improvement of innovation behavior.

Purpose The purpose of this study is to identify the problems and possibilities for development of innovative start-ups in Latvia. Design/methodology/approach To achieve the aim of this study, a survey of Latvia’s high school students in 2015 (n = 5,910) was undertaken by an online questionnaire within a financial skill built-up contest “New Financial Expert 2016” held by the Financial Institute of Swedbank (Swedbank survey, 2016). Further, Latvia University of Agriculture master students (n = 97) were interviewed in the year 2016 to identify master students opinion about necessary support for entrepreneurship, future services or goods with potentially high added value and find out their readiness for innovative action. Findings A comparative analysis of data of the master student interviews and the survey of Latvia’s high school students showed that most of the youth associated their entrepreneurship prospects with innovative ideas, new technologies and new skills. The results of the research indicated that the foundation of start-up enterprises in Latvia led to positive results and gave an impulse to increasing economic activities as there were the necessary preconditions for their development. Originality/value The studies are mostly dedicated to start-ups that are less likely to innovate and have linked the concept of the start-up with business incubation. Unlike other studies, this is a specific research that provides insights into the situation in Latvia and is directed toward building innovative start-up enterprises that should be linked with the growth-oriented new technology, globalization and global market with a focus on innovation. Thus, research findings contribute to extant research on the possibilities of development of innovative start-up enterprises in Latvia and advance the present understanding of the main problems in the creation of new innovative start-ups.

Abstract:
Although companies in Slovakia achieve value in the use of design at the level of the European Union average, the lack of knowledge and information about the possibilities and potential benefits of design hinders the effective use of design as a key factor in successful innovation. Good design does not just happen by chance. It is usually the result of a well-managed process. Design management is becoming necessary because it allows the company to reflect the market's needs better and adapt to customers. When design management is part of a company's management processes, the design would significantly impact the company's economic performance and help ensure a competitive advantage in the market. Lack of design management skills is a major obstacle to the wider deployment and integration of design into companies. The paper aims to verify the impact of the achieved level of design management skills on the use of design in product innovation. Through a survey of Slovak companies in selected industries, the authors identified the attitude of companies to the use of design in product innovation. The authors used statistical methods to analyse the level of skills achieved in individual areas of design management. They identified the impact of the level of skills on the design use rate in innovation. This study includes factor and regression analysis methods. The design management skills assessment survey confirms the relationship and correlation between the level of design management skills and the intensity of the use of design in product innovation. The ability to engage others has emerged as the weakest in the design management skills assessment survey. Involving customers and suppliers and creating interdisciplinary teams could bring the company effective use of design in product innovation and thus achieve a significant and sustainable competitive advantage. According to the confirmed results, companies' training to gain the necessary skills in individual areas of design management should increase the level of mastery of these skills and consequently support the use of design in product innovations.

Abstract:
In the development of modern education innovation, with the continuous innovation of social economy and science and technology, education information technology has undergone significant changes. The intelligent algorithm represented by BP neural network has been applied to the design of professional teaching platform, which not only provides technical support for students' network education learning, but also provides a new idea for English education innovation. According to the situation of English teaching at various stages in recent years, traditional English teaching pays more attention to the transmission of theoretical knowledge, and ignores the educational discussion of students' individual differences. Therefore, researchers propose to use intelligent algorithms to build a personalized education and learning platform to help students quickly understand and master professional English knowledge. Based on the understanding of BP neural network algorithm and the current research status of modern English teaching, this paper deeply discusses the English teaching platform based on BP neural network algorithm as the core, and carries on the development and test of the system operating function and performance. The final results show that the system platform design meets the needs of English teaching in the new era.

AbstractThe effectiveness, efficiency, availability, agility, and equality of global healthcare systems are in question. The COVID-19 pandemic have further highlighted some of these issues and also shown that healthcare provision is in many parts of the world paternalistic, nimble, and often governed too extensively by revenue and profit motivations. The 4th industrial revolution - the machine learning age - with data gathering, analysis, optimisation, and delivery changes has not yet reached Healthcare / Health provision. We are still treating patients when they are sick rather then to use advanced sensors, data analytics, machine learning, genetic information, and other exponential technologies to prevent people from becoming patients or to help and support a clinicians decision. We are trying to optimise and improve traditional medicine (incremental innovation) rather than to use technologies to find new medical and clinical approaches (disruptive innovation). Education of future stakeholders from the clinical and from the technology side has not been updated to Health 4.0 demands and the needed 21st century skills. This paper presents a novel proposal for a university and innovation lab based interdisciplinary Master education of HealthTEC innovation designers.

Abstract:
Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to address the role of intermediaries in open innovation networks in achieving ICT-enabled innovations. The ultimate goal of open innovation networks is to create value for endusers and providers, and to share the risks and rewards. The aim of this paper is to analyse the competences that intermediaries in open innovation networks need to master and exploit during the exploration and exploitation phases of an innovation process. Design/methodology/approach – Based on 14 cases, all of which are examples of collaborative multi-party projects with a focus on ICT-enabled innovations, the paper inductively develops a competence model for intermediaries that can be applied at different stages in the innovation. Findings – The research shows that intermediaries can play an effective role in open innovation, provided they have the right set of competences. It can be concluded that the role of innovation intermediary is most relevant in the creation and development phases. Research limitations/implications – This study certainly has its limitations. The researchers were involved in several cases, which may have biased their views, even though an external expert who was familiar with the case and the work of the intermediary was involved to minimize the risk. Most importantly, the cases all involved of a single intermediary, albeit with many different private and public partners. The cases were primarily located in the Netherlands. It would be interesting to complement this study with results from other innovation intermediaries. Practical implications – The paper identified which competences of organizations in innovation are required, and how to balance the competences between the different partners, including the innovation intermediary. The study allows to link the type of goal of the collaboration to a number of best practices, including the competences and roles that are required at different stages. Originality/value – The paper combines the core innovation competences with the innovation value chain concept developed, and evaluate the resulting model in 14 different cases. The model is new and relevant in practice.

AbstrakPeranan Desain Interior dalam mengantisipasi Permasalahan Perkotaan. Masalah perkotaan di Negara berkembang di manapun di dunia hampir memiliki masalah yang sama yaitu masalah ekonomi yang berkaitan dengan ketimpangan antara pembangunan kota yang mengikuti perkembangan jaman menuju kota modern yang tidak diikuti dengan perkembangan sumber daya manusianya, yaitu pembangunan yang berantakan dan 'lari' dari master plan awal. Salah satu akibatnya adalah terjadinya banjir. Sejak jaman Orde Lama di Jakarta sudah direncanakan adanya kanal barat dan kanal timur untuk mengantisipasi banjir, namun tidak berjalan dengan baik bahkan sampai sekarang belum selesai dibangun , akibatnya Jakarta menjadi langganan banjir setiap tahun. Sudah banyak usaha yang dicoba dilakukan, seperti : perbaikan tata kota, pembukaan lahan hijau/taman, membatasi pembangunan , dan lain-lain. Namun bagaimana untuk mengantisipasi dalam mengurangi kerugian akibat banjir untuk gedung-gedung yang sudah berdiri ? Di sinilah desain interior mencoba untuk ikut berperan dalam masalah perkotaan ini. AbstractThe Contribute of Interior Design to Ancipate Flood in Urban City.Urbanproblems in developing countries around the world has a common issue. namely economical disparity of a city development that follows modern principles but not accompanied by human resiurcea development, resulting in development that are chaotic and ignored the initial master-plan. One of consequence of this the event of flood. Since the era Soekarno, Jakarta has planned west-canal and east-canal to anticipate flood, it was going the way it was planned and even untull now is still incomplete. The result of this is that Jakarta becomes flooede every year. Many efforts have been done, such as: better urban planning, green spaces, structural guidance, etc. But how to mitigate the loss from flood on the structures and buildings that already there? This is where interior try to contribute to solve the city's problem

Abstract:
AbstractDesigning courses for emerging areas of study is subject to clear challenges. If the envisaged courses are directly paid by the students – as it is the case of this research – they are actually the customers whose requirements have to be satisfied. Traditional approaches for collecting student requirements are not feasible for building up very novel topics. For such cases, an approach for course unit design that respects the lean philosophy is introduced in this paper. Lean is about creation of more value for students with fewer resources; or maximizing value while minimizing waste. The approach is based on the paradigm that, in highly dynamic and strong competitive educational markets, top quality courses must be designed from the very early stages. A hypothesis-based process defines the “content-prototype” of the course, which is further tested via web-based surveys that are directed to potential students. Results are statistically interpreted and a refined course content is formulated. The prototype for the most delicate module of the course is elaborated to test the level of delight of potential students (also called the WOW effect). Lessons learned are then considered to design the “promoter-prototype” of the course. A focus group is then used to test if potential students will feel a special experience interacting with the course content (also known as the KANDO effect). The methodology was experimented to design a master course unit on digital entrepreneurship. Empirical researches reveal the viability of the methodology to extract the appropriate topics of a course in emerging areas of study. Researches also show that a well-piloted strategy for course delivery should be in place to achieve the desired market impact.

This article highlights an innovative take on the jigsaw format, an inclusive and cooperative active learning strategy, implemented in an upper-level engineering elective course. After students complete the usual two steps of the jigsaw method—first gaining mastery in “expert groups” and then collaboratively teaching their peers in “jigsaw groups”—they then complete a third step in their jigsaw groups, in which they work together on an authentic design problem, offering a practical take on applying course content. This activity was implemented in three courses offered both in person and remotely (online only). We share how this innovation can promote learning, problem-solving, perspective sharing, and teamwork in contexts with students from different backgrounds and levels of experience.

Abstract:
Learning the concept of fractions can be one of the most difficult skills to master for primary school students. Fractions are also seen to affect other mathematical knowledge, such as algebra. Researchers have introduced an innovation called Fraction Cipher to help students learn fractions. Fraction Cipher is an innovation in the arena of education that involves learning the Malay language and Mathematics. Design research is used as the research method to solve this problem consisting of three phases: preliminary design, teaching experiment, and retrospective analysis. The instruments used are fraction cipher, fraction test, and observation checklist. The results of the pair's comparative study by controlling the type I error using the Bonferroni method show that the mean values of the mathematical achievement of the experimental group and the control group are significantly different. The results show that Fraction Cipher impacts students to understand and master the concept of fractional addition and fraction subtraction operations. This research also explains the "Sake-Beda" strategy to make it easier for students to solve fractional operation problems. Besides, this study also shows the change in students' attitudes from negative to more positive. Thus, students understand and are more motivated to learn the concept of fractions.

Finally, the feasibility is evaluated of the existing of teaching resources, and the effect of information technology teaching is analyzed through a questionnaire survey. The results show that more than 80% of students are interested in robot teaching, and more than 70% of students can master relevant theoretical knowledge in practical operation, which proves that robot education can arouse students' interest in information technology courses. In conclusion, the learning methods proposed in this study can enable students to better master related theories, and improve students' operation and innovation abilities. The study provides a reference for the application of artificial intelligence robot technology in the field of education.

Abstract:
Adoption of information technology in healthcare has in recent years improved the process of information collection, analysis and use in the Indian public health system. However, it has also led to multiplicity of information systems. Currently, a good amount of data is being generated by various health management information systems (HMISs); however, usability of these data sets is limited owing to lack of technical and institutional ability to share data with other systems. The lack of an effective standard list of health facilities is one of the major impediments to building interoperability among these multiple systems. To overcome this challenge, the Indian Ministry of Health and Family Welfare has initiated a programme to build a master facility list (MFL) known as National Identification Number to Health Facilities. Facility data from two leading national public health information systems, which were routinely reporting health data since 2008, were selected for this purpose. Common facilities were placed on an online portal for verification by state-level and district-level officers. Currently, this portal holds more than 200 000 verified public health facilities. Use of facility data from existing systems has helped to quickly populate the MFL in India. However, design limitations of the existing systems were also translated to the facility portal. Some lay challenges to sustain and evolve this portal in the future include (1) integration of other HMISs holding facility data with the MFL, (2) public notification of standards for MFL, (3) comprehensive data quality audit of existing MFL facility data and (4) establishment of robust governance mechanisms. We discuss how the benefits from this exercise in technical innovation can be materialised more effectively in practice.

Abstract:
The aim of this paper is to address the behavioral patterns of the students in peer-jury exercise and the learning outcomes in the landscape design studio. Despite the design studios run based on the relation of the master of the studio with the students, changing this relationship to the peer-learners experiments through this research. A Likert questionnaire was applied to ask the opinion of the students at the end of the semester, the data analyzed through a factor analysis test in SPSS. The findings of the analysis identified that the students addressed effective aspects of the exercise in five clusters including communication, interaction, presentation, innovation, and interpretation. The students learn through peer-jury to communicate with classmates through comments, critics, and recommendations, which is improved presentations. The comments of the peer-jury as an idea of design result in innovation in the design conceptualization. In conclusion, the students design their own style of communication in the position of peer-jury through an interpretation of the design projects. The results of the exercise shift the learning process from the instructor toward the peer-students and the peer-learners.

Abstract:
Innovation and sustainability are two areas upon which Scandinavian countries place a great deal of attention, in order to maintain strong positions in the global market and strong welfare societies. A current movement in many engineering-related universities in Scandinavia and the rest of Europe is seeing a necessary rethinking, reorganization, and relaunch of engineering curricula. This movement is underway in response to drastically decreasing student numbers in the 1990s and early years of the current decade, and to a recognition of the need to innovate educational curricula, in order to be able to educate and deliver candidates to modern-day and future industrial companies and organizations (Heller, 2001, SEFI Annual Conference, Copenhagen, 12–14, September). The sustainability focus of many of the Scandinavian universities has often resulted in instrumental contributions to environmental agendas and methodical approaches towards environmental improvements, (Robert, 2002, The Natural Step Story: Seeding a Quiet Revolution, New Society, Gabriola Island), both through educational curricula and research programs. This paper presents an initiative from Denmark, showing new interpretations of industrial needs, research insights, educational ideas, and identification of core innovative engineering competencies. (Andreasen, McAloone, and Hansen, 2000, “On the Teaching of Product Development and Innovation,” Proceedings of International Workshop on Education for Engineering Design (EED), Pilsen,E. Eder ed., November 23-24; Munch and Jakobsen, 2005, “The Concept of Competence in Engineering Practice,” in Proceedings of Engineering Product Design Conference, Edinburgh). The new Danish Master of Science engineering program, Design and Innovation, presents a radically updated set of contents, pedagogical style, and learning goals for the education of engineers. The articulation of this new curriculum points to new roles and identities for the professionalism of synthesis and innovation, including a strong focus on sustainable innovation. By focusing particularly on the Design and Innovation program’s fifth semester, which is entitled Innovation for Sustainability, the efforts we have made to renew the educational approach and contents in our engineering teaching will be shown in this paper. This semester has been the object of a research exercise, to affect and observe various approaches to the teaching of design. Particular attention will be paid in this case to competencies, both initiated in the teaching and evaluated in the students’ interpretation of the theoretical contents. The lessons learned from the first 3 years of this semester’s application and teaching to approximately 55 students per year are presented and discussed. After introducing the motivation and background for establishing the education program, the consideration of competence-based education is described, in the context of design engineering. The whole focus on competencies is central to the ambition of nurturing an innovative approach to sustainability, as described in the case, which focused on relating the contents, context, and responsibilities connected to engineering for sustainability. The two course-modules described in the case are analyzed in terms of four views of competency, to enable a discussion of the merits of training competencies in engineering students, rather than just skills.

Professional development of future teacher of philological subjects – process is complicated and lengthy. Theoretical and practical study is necessary part during of future teacher’s master of system or research knowledge in the branch of philological subjects in conjunction with general professional training. The problem of using of interactive methods in the preparation of teacher-philologists of higher school is considered in the article. The readiness to innovation teaching activities – particularly personal status of teacher, which implies the presence of a motivation-value attitude to the professional activity. Thus, the analysis of the scientific and methodological literature has shown that innovation interactive methods, in contrast to traditional teaching methods, are more effective. As a result, there is not only a transformation of goals, from teaching a foreign language to learning speaking a foreign language, but also rethinking the role of a teacher and students. Readiness for innovative teaching activities is noted – particularly the personal status of the teacher, which implies the presence of a motivating value approach to the professional activity, having effective ways and means of achieving educational goals, the ability to be creative and reflective. Many of the problems facing teachers working in an innovative way, linked to low innovation competence – teacher motivation systems, knowledge, skills, personal qualities that provide effective use of new educational technologies work with future specialist. The use of innovative teaching methods of the future teacher's linguist in teaching activities is analyzed; the content of the innovation process in education is defined; the object and tasks of educational innovation are grounded; conceptual design of efficient provision of educational technologies in the formulation of future professional competence of teachers. The effectiveness of the projecting of innovation teaching largely depends on adequate choice and the implementation of consecrate pedagogical technologies. Pedagogical technologies in the process of traditional education are called «organizational forms and methods of education. The function of a teacher can be described as a system of consequent operation, expressed in planning, observation and correction of students’ activities. The education development priority of «philological department at Hryhoriy Skovoroda University in Pereiaslav is the implementation of modern information technologies that provide access to the network of high quality databases, expanding the possibility for students to capture complex information. It is realized by building individual module teaching programs with varying levels of complexity depending on specific needs, using the interactive methods, delivering distance education, producing electronic textbooks.

Abstract:
Fostering ‘experiential learning’ in real-life situations is a critical task for engineering educators when creating constructively aligned learning activities. The paper proposes an approach to measure the students’ perception of learning in Conceive-Design-Implement-Operate activities conducted outside the classroom. The approach is based on the opportunity of gathering and analyzing lessons learned from the student reflection reports at the end of a team-based innovation project performed in collaboration with company partners. The approach is intended to provide a basis for the future development of innovation projects with engineering students, supporting the definition of learning outcomes that are relevant for the CDIO Syllabus 2.0, and of constructively aligned learning experiences. The paper exemplifies the approach with regards to a master course named Value Innovation and presents the findings obtained at the third and second level of the CDIO Syllabus 2.0. The results of the course implementation show how short team-based innovation projects largely contributed in developing social and communication-related skills in engineering students, going beyond the mere application of their technical skills.

Abstract:
Developing high quality engineering course units is a challenging task. Capacity to explain complex technical solutions and behavioral phenomena of engineering technologies in a limited timeframe is not an easy job. Moreover, ensuring information reproducibility for individual study is also important. Sometimes, courses should be delivered remotely. In this context, the latest developments in information and communication technologies (ICT), including multimedia and Internet-based education platforms, facilitate the creation of reliable solutions to these challenges. Even if information technologies are helpful, careful planning is required to design quality course units because many conflicts occur in meeting quality targets. In this respect, a generic approach for improving the quality of engineering course units when a large set of requirements and constrains intervenes on the design map is introduced in this paper as a mean to identify the best places where and how ICT can aid the education process. Quality planning and innovation tools are considered to master this situation. The research shows that smart application of multimedia technologies and web-based education platforms can deliver great results towards better quality of engineering courses.

Abstract:
This article discusses and compares statistical designs of basket trial, from both frequentist and Bayesian perspectives. Baskets trials are used in oncology to study interventions that are developed to target a specific feature (often genetic alteration or immune phenotype) that is observed across multiple tissue types and/or tumor histologies. Patient heterogeneity has become pivotal to the development of non-cytotoxic treatment strategies. Treatment targets are often rare and exist among several histologies, making prospective clinical inquiry challenging for individual tumor types. More generally, basket trials are a type of master protocol often used for label expansion. Master protocol is used to refer to designs that accommodates multiple targets, multiple treatments, or both within one overarching protocol. For the purpose of making sequential decisions about treatment futility, Simon’s two-stage design is often embedded within master protocols. In basket trials, this frequentist design is often applied to independent evaluations of tumor histologies and/or indications. In the tumor agnostic setting, rarer indications may fail to reach the sample size needed for even the first evaluation for futility. With recent innovations in Bayesian methods, it is possible to evaluate for futility with smaller sample sizes, even for rarer indications. Novel Bayesian methodology for a sequential basket trial design based on predictive probability is introduced. The Bayesian predictive probability designs allow interim analyses with any desired frequency, including continual assessments after each patient observed. The sequential design is compared with and without Bayesian methods for sharing information among a collection of discrete, and potentially non-exchangeable tumor types. Bayesian designs are compared with Simon’s two-stage minimax design.

Abstract:
This paper presents the reformulation of the Integrated Master in Mechanical Engineering (MIEM) at the Faculty of Engineering of the University of Porto (FEUP) in two independent degrees (bachelor and master). The design of the new cycles of studies, triggered by decision of the Portuguese Government, followed the FEUP’s guidelines and led to a solution close to the one adopted by the existing integrated master. Therefore, the well-known “FEUP Mechanical Engineering product” is maintained, in general, since it is widely accepted in the job market, and improved by correcting some MIEM’s shortcomings. The bachelor is a non-professional degree of preparation to the master. It is clearly distinct from the cycles of studies thought at the polytechnic institutions, providing a broader scientific background, and not including design skills and dissertation. The master is a demanding degree, with innovative content and incorporating the value added by the excellence of the scientific research carried out at the Department of Mechanical Engineering. It is aligned with the needs of the industry, being different from other master degrees in the same area offered in Portugal, and designed to attract students from abroad. A SWOT analysis performed both for the bachelor and the master shows the potential of the two new cycles of studies.

Abstract:
Service Science, Management and Engineering (SSME) is an emerging discipline which studies service industry under an integrated framework. SSME education trains scientists and skilled service workers to promote innovation and productivity in service industry. Although quite a number of universities started SSME programs years ago, most of them are still in the stage of experiment, and only address a small portion of the total subject. This paper first discusses the objectives of SSME education program—the abilities that service workers and scientists should have. Then, three types of foundation courses of the current programs are discussed in depth; the bachelor, master and PhD degree programs offered currently are analyzed, which include the course contents and teaching methods. Based on the inspirations from these practical programs, a unified model for SSME education is developed and presented, which proposes to unify bachelor, master and PhD programs, and establishes a new service science department comprising areas of service management, service engineering and design, service arts and humanities.

Abstract:
With the development of economy, translators are facing increasingly higher demands and requirements in the society. However, the status quo of translational English teaching in college as an important way to cultivate English translators is still unsatisfactory. The monotonous and obsolete English teaching model severely limits the development of students’ thinking, leads to insufficient innovation in the comprehension of English translation and makes it difficult for students to master English translation skills. In this study, interactive reading theory was used as the teaching method and Chinese learners’ English corpus and self-built corpus were used as the teaching basis to design the corresponding teaching process according to the process and stages of meme reproduction. The results show that compared with traditional teaching, the English translation teaching model based on interactive reading theory can help students master English translation skills according to the rules of English-centered memory, thereby stimulating their interest in English translation and improving their English translation level.

Purpose This paper aims to present an impact analysis in the educational dimension of the European Institute of Innovation and Technology (EIT) and specifically on its “knowledge and innovation community” (KIC), focused on the information and communications technology sector named “EIT Digital” in the university field. Design/methodology/approach After reviewing the current situation on education in ICT-related engineering and the need to address new professional profiles and/or complement the current ones to increase the value of the new professionals in a globalised society, the principles behind the EIT model are analysed, taking the experience accumulated in EIT Digital as a basis for discussion at master level. Findings The conceptual framework on “what” and “how” of the EIT described from the educational perspective constituted sound bases for ensuring the value of the EIT KICs as drivers for institutional innovation and structural reform. As the practical experience of Universidad Politécnica de Madrid (UPM) shows, the policy experimentation space provided by EIT Digital has acted as an internal transformation driver for European universities. It has played a key role to accelerate structural reforms once partner universities assumed the need of modifying or reinterpreting “any internal regulation to participate better in the EIT”. Originality/value This analysis is used as a basis for the design of an institutional agenda of education transformation in the rest of the UPM where the innovation and entrepreneurship vision is inserted into the technical education to give future professionals the tools and capacities to serve as catalyser agents of the innovation system.

Abstract:
An innovative component of modern library-information education should become a trend, in which frames it is possible not only to compact and intensify the study of professional issues, but also to shape tools for future professional activities in the innovation logic of an effective character. This in turn requires integrating multiple types of work in a holistic format. A master class on modeling personal exhibitions and its results in developing problems of reading study with application of bibliographic reconstruction and knowledge mapping is chosen as one of these formats. In the master class course a complex of tasks was solved. Among them are the following: developing the strategy of exhibition modeling, its understanding according to the completeness of information and its degree of semantic coagulation as a way to learn and present information in the exhibition format; forming the communicative culture in the exhibition presentation process; improving analytical skills, creative thinking, and improvement of psychologic-pedagogical professionalism through familiarization with the personal contribution of a scientist related to readers study; the acquisition of knowledge and skills to map knowledge. The exhibition was carried out in several stages in the logic «from simple to complex» and starts with learning the exhibition structural design options, their semantic and color solutions; exploring the scientist contribution based on the bibliographic description of publications, annotations and abstracts, later on the basis of studying publications themselves and citation. The latter allows not only to map its content in different ways, but also to build the professional communication sociometric matrix. As a result of this master class with elements of a business game students acquire specific knowledge (in our case readers’ study); a various options of a personal exhibition intelligent-information products are created; the specialist intellectual capacity grows significantly, cognitive and metacognitive skills of specialists are developed; methodological knowledge based on innovative search activities is formed. The heuristic potential of the master class lies in the fact that the tendency to internal resources of a personality determining the propensity to innovate in their professional activities is clearly expressed in the world and domestic science.

Abstract:
An education programme at the master’s level normally aims to facilitate graduates’ acquisition, mastery and application of advanced knowledge in specialised areas of education. However, there is no learning pathway that aims to improve the level of specific and transversal competencies and skills, with particular regard to those relevant for the labour market in the furniture sector, such as management, entrepreneurship, language competences and leadership toward wood and furniture industry 4.0. The methodology for this research inquiry was based upon a survey questionnaire of 54 respondents during the MAKING4.0 Seminar at Universiti Teknologi MARA (UiTM) in Shah Alam, Selangor, Malaysia. The results were analysed from the Work Package 1 (WP1) “Analysis and comparison of the current Higher Education training offer and furniture and woodworking industry”, before the learning outcomes were defined for each of the identified topics. The definition of learning outcomes was made considering the Recommendations of the European Qualifications Framework (EQF), and subsequently harmonised with the Programme Learning Outcomes defined in the Malaysian Qualification Framework 2nd edition (MQF2.0) for a Master´s Degree Level 7. The identified learning outcomes have been grouped into four modules: (1) Processes and Production of Furniture, (2) Intelligent and Sustainable Design, (3) Wood and New Materials, and (4) Innovation Management. Results of the study indicated that MAKING4.0 is in line with the actions highlighted in the Malaysian Education Blueprint (2015–2025) and the objectives of the Ministry of International Trade and Industry in developing the National Industry 4.0 policy framework. MAKING4.0 aims to ensure an adequate supply of human capital and skills, as well as develop an innovative master’s degree to modernise the current training offer in wood and furniture technology processes and design around Industry 4.0 in Malaysia.

Abstract:
The analysis of aircraft design methods reported here has revealed that building a competitive aircraft necessitates devising a scientifically based concept of integrated aircraft design employing CAD/CAM/CAE/PLM software suites. A generalized concept of integrated design and three-dimensional computer modeling of aircraft involving the CAD/CAM/CAE/PLM systems has been developed. Based on the proposed concept, the principles of integrated design of aircraft were devised. The features of designing the training and training-combat aircraft, transport-category aircraft, light civilian aircraft have been described. A method for determining the take-off weight, design parameters, and formation of the general appearance of aircraft has been improved. The method is intended to form the appearance of the aircraft at the stages of preliminary design, the purpose of which is reduced to determining the permissible version of the aircraft project. The project must meet the predefined requirements and restrictions in the selected aircraft scheme and the assigned set of parameters that characterize its airframe and power plant. A method of parametric modeling of aircraft has been improved, which includes the stages of creating a master geometry of the aircraft and a model of space distribution. Parametric models of master geometry and models of space distribution, training and training-combat aircraft, transport-category aircraft, light civilian aircraft have been constructed. Methods of integrated design of aircraft main units have been devised and theoretically substantiated. Parametric models of master geometry of the wing for a training aircraft, the wings, appendage, and fuselage of a light civilian aircraft were built, taking into consideration the design features of aircraft units of various categories

Abstract:
Nowadays, architecture education concentrates mostly on form, space, and general subjects as well as considerations of function, and art theories about design. Least attentions are on technical matters, construction courses, which cannot stand separate from the design process. This lack of synchronization between architectural design and construction courses have resulted in the idea that only design product is paramount in architectural education. However, the nature of construction courses is mostly technical and mechanical, which make it challenging for students to understand and truncate their passion for furtherance on the subject. This paper aims to examine the problems related to the learning and understanding of construction technology and its connection with the architectural design. And also to identify the primary learning necessities essential for achieving a better learning performance in construction courses, by analyzing the curriculum of construction courses of Faculty of Architecture, EMU (Eastern Mediterranean University) as case studies, and related information in the current literature written between (1993-2015) whose discourses focus on: Teaching construction technology, Bridging the gap between Theory and Practice, Education and practice of building and Evaluating Constructive Thought of Master Builder.

Abstract:
Architectural designing, creating new form and often unknown structural assemblies, is, we argue, distinct from structural engineering approaches that focus on the dimensioning of members in well-understood kinds of assemblies. Based on a review of compositional approaches, we offer in this paper an appraisal of the dominant educational approaches in structural engineering and architectural design. Based on current trends in both professions, we anticipate a future that sees architectural and structural engineering responsibilities no longer strictly separated but collaboratively integrated, in a way that harnesses benefits of specialist expertise, yet–somewhat reminiscent of the role of the medieval master builder–recognizes the need for generalist awareness and oversight required to achieve architectural and structural innovation. From this position, we propose a learning approach for architectural students that focuses less on rote learning and calculation and emphasizes applied learning through model building and the development of "structural commonsense" through the detailed study of precedent case studies.

Abstract:
We describe an innovative, semester-long course in biology and communication skills for master’s degree students in biostatistics. The primary goal of the course is to make the connection between biological science and statistics more explicit. The secondary goals are to teach oral and written communication skills in an appropriate context for applied biostatisticians, and to teach a structured approach to thinking that enables students to become lifelong learners in biology, study design, and the application of statistics to biomedical research. Critical evaluation of medical literature is the method used to teach biology and communication. Exercises are constructivist in nature, designed to be hands-on and encourage reflection through writing and oral communication. A single disease area (cancer) provides a motivating example to: 1) introduce students to the most commonly used study designs in medical and public health research, 2) illustrate how study design is used to address questions about human biology and disease, 3) teach basic biological concepts necessary for a successful career in biostatistics, and 4) train students to read and critically evaluate publications in peer-reviewed journals. We describe the design and features of the course, the intended audience, and provide detailed examples for instructors interested in designing similar courses.

Abstract:
In the last 40 years, the aeronautical industry has managed to move from a specialized sector to a worldwide leading industry. Companies, governments and associations all over the world acknowledge the importance of the aviation industry in supporting global development and the economy. However, aviation will be facing new challenges related to sustainability and performance in a technological environment in evolution. To succeed, the aeronautical industry must keep innovation as one of its main assets. It must master a wide range of technologies and then collaborate to integrate them into an aircraft design and development program. A collaborative approach to innovation is key to achieve these goals. The main purpose of this paper is to analyze the structure of technological innovation networks in the aviation industry and to characterize the map of the “Aviation Technology Space”. Two different approaches and methods are used. In one approach, we performed a bibliometric network analysis of aviation research scientific publications using a keyword co-occurrence analysis method to map the aerospace collaboration structures. Complementarily, we performed a patent analysis to evaluate the innovation capacity of the aviation industry in the cutting-edge technologies previously identified. From the results of this analysis, the paper provides recommendations for future innovation and research policies to allow the sector to fulfill the demanding goals by the year 2050.

Abstract:
In the world of education that has developed, of course, we are indirectly required to be able to understand or master the use of foreign languages. SMA Negeri 1 Cikarang Pusat is one of the schools that learn Japanese. The students who study Japanese at the school have various kinds of great motivation, but also not a few of the students who can understand and even have difficulty in learning Japanese. Given that there are many innovations in the world of education in this era that involve technology to carry out the learning process. There are many ways to learn Japanese, for example by learning through learning media that utilize technology such as smartphones. Supported by increasingly advanced technological innovations and new interaction patterns, the role of the User Interface (UI) and User Experience (UX) is important to the needs of users in solving problems. This research was conducted to find out how we can meet and know user needs by using design thinking. With this Japanese language learning media, it is hoped that it can help students learn Japanese easily.

Abstract:
Abstract Background Industrial design is an interdisciplinary subject with the organic combination of engineering and art. In order to systematically construct the curriculum system of design thinking in line with the psychological cognition of engineering students, we can better cultivate students' innovative consciousness and ability. Through the innovation of thinking consciousness, promote the change of emotional behavior. Subjects and Methods Put forward the idea of “5432” curriculum reform based on online and offline mixed teaching - 5 teaching objectives, 4 teaching levels, 3 teaching contents and 2 practical projects - reform the traditional teaching objective setting mode with knowledge objectives, ability objectives and ideological and political objectives as the basic classification mode, and refine it into five objectives: change the way of thinking and cultivate learning interest; Master the micro cycle and macro cycle of design thinking, and implement the complete design process; Use design thinking tools to generate new design concepts and comprehensively analyze user needs; Improve the ability of language expression and product publicity; Train students to become designers with family and national feelings, and use Chinese design language to design solutions with Chinese characteristics. Then, it can be summarized into four progressive teaching levels, that is, speaking theory well, connecting with the real world, teaching thinking methods and transmitting correct values. According to the teaching level, design the teaching content in line with the psychological cognition of engineering students: the process, methods and tools of design thinking; Design consciousness based on situational thinking, as well as the method and practice of design thinking. Finally, according to the teaching objectives, teaching levels and contents, formulate practical projects in line with the psychological cognition of engineering students, and apply the theoretical knowledge to practice; In addition to reforming the traditional teaching forms, we should also change the traditional examination based examination methods, comprehensively check students' online learning, teamwork, discussion and flipped classroom (students speak and teachers listen), and pay attention to the whole process of students' learning. Results The evaluation results show that students' academic performance has been greatly improved compared with previous years, and their comprehensive innovation ability and work innovation degree have also been significantly improved. It shows that the teaching organization based on students' psychological characteristics is reasonable and can be popularized. In addition, the study also found that anxiety was negatively correlated with achievement. Similarly, there is a significant negative correlation between anxiety and self-efficacy. State anxiety, trait anxiety and learning anxiety are all positively correlated. The “anxiety” component of learners' personality characteristics plays a great role in the generation of learning anxiety. The correlation coefficient between LCAS and trait anxiety was 0.408, while the correlation coefficient between LCAS and state anxiety was 0.395. Both reached a significant level (P < 0.01). There was a positive correlation between self-efficacy and achievement. Research shows that anxiety, gender and self-efficacy can be used as comprehensive variables to measure academic achievement. Conclusion “5432” teaching method provides new ideas and methods for the cultivation of engineering students' innovative thinking consciousness. It effectively improves students' innovation ability and problem-solving ability. However, due to the limitation of course time, some projects cannot be deeply implemented, and the effective connection of follow-up courses is needed.
