以应用能力为导向的数据库(VFP)课程教学探讨

数据库(VFP)课程在传统的教学模式下已不能适应培养应用性人才的目标,因此采用了"以项目为核心,以任务为导向"的教学模式改革。在教材建设方面自编了"任务驱动型"教材;在教学方式上采用"任务驱动"教学法,把教学过程分为任务介绍、任务分析、任务实施、任务总结、任务拓展、任务评价和项目实训七个阶段,极大地增强了师生间的互动,显著提高了学生的应用能力;在考核方式上突出了应用技能的考核;并将进一步加强教学团队的建设和网络资源的开发建设。

The strategic decision making of entrepreneurs within small high innovator firms

The study examines strategic decision making among entrepreneurs from small firms engaged in early stage commercialisation. It is based on a questionnaire survey of 57 firms and the results suggest that if entrepreneurs within small innovator firms feel the innovation can be commercialised with relatively few obstacles they will tend to downgrade the importance of external advisors. Greater value is placed on the views of customers and where the entrepreneur has the power to proceed with the innovation without recourse to other stakeholders he/she is most likely to go ahead if a positive response is received from leading customers. The article expands upon these findings to outline the design, development and application of a diagnostic assessment and screening tool to assist such entrepreneurs, formulate more systematic strategies than the response to an initial customer.     

Spatial co-localisation of firms and entrepreneurial dynamics

In this conceptual paper, I propose an interpretation of business dynamics in terms of the spatial co-localisation of firms—considered as an intelligent cognitive system—in a circumscribed area in order to form clusters of various types. I interpret clustering by adopting the methodology of multi-agent combinatory systems: that is, systems formed by collectivities of agents (firms) in which an internal feedback recombines the micro behaviours of the agents (localisation) in order to produce a macro effect (cluster) which, in turn, modifies the attractiveness of the area and conditions the subsequent localisations. I also present the idea that if a cluster has fitness advantages for new firms, then usually new entrepreneurs are formed within it and the cluster widens, due to the endogenous genesis of new firms.
