The document summarizes the findings of a case study on the role of knowledge sharing in fostering innovation at Tallinn University. It discusses how innovation is perceived at the university, how staff share knowledge through both formal and informal means, and how knowledge sharing contributes to innovative initiatives. It identifies factors that influence knowledge sharing such as organizational culture, incentives, and management commitment. The summary emphasizes that innovation involves risk of failure but a supportive culture can encourage continued effort.

The document discusses linking higher education to the labor market in Denmark. It notes that while Denmark previously experienced issues with graduate unemployment, the unemployment rate for graduates is now at 27.3%. It outlines initiatives by the Danish Students' Union, government, and universities to address this issue, such as promoting entrepreneurship, investing in career centers, and making education more practice-based through external lecturers and real-life case studies. The goal is to encourage academics to seek jobs in smaller companies and outside major cities.

This document summarizes Dr. Ebba Ossiannilsson's presentation on quality considerations for the digitalization of education. The presentation discusses challenges like the need for social, emotional, collaborative and empathic skills in the 4th industrial revolution. It also covers trends like personalized just-in-time learning, collaborative learning, evolving models of quality, and recommendations to focus on learner experiences and outcomes over time. The presentation argues that quality assurance must consider access, flexibility and lifelong learning on a macro, meso and micro level to truly transform education.
The presentation reveals those key skills which PhD students/researchers acquire (sometimes unbeknowingly) during their period of study. The presentation highlights the explosive growth of the ‘PhD market’ especially in China and looks at two basic scenarios – those graduands who will continue in research and perhaps a majority who will not. Attention is drawn to the Vitae Organisation researcher development framework and in particular the Employability Lens for careers outside academia. The skills (knowledge, behaviour & attitude) which are highlighted in the lens are possibly better expressed in the form of an outer circle of key transferrable skills which all PhD students should be capable acquiring during their PhD studies. However it is the inner circle of complex interactive and intellectual skills which will be those most sought after by future employers and these will be the skills that that will take graduates the furthest in careers outside academia. Ray Wallace has coined the term ‘EPIMERIC’ for these skills. Not everyone will have these skills and attention should be given by graduate schools to investigating how students might acquire these skills during their studies. One suggestion is a secondment to industry/commerce for a short period. The transformation of undergraduate students taking internships as part of their degree programmes is well documented.

Satellite Center History and Culture LessonRhitt Growl
The document provides a history and overview of Satellite Center, a school that aims to create a student-centered learning environment that prepares students for the 21st century. It discusses how Satellite Center was inspired by similar New Tech Network schools across the US and Australia. The school was constructed in the early 2000s after a bond issue passed. It now offers courses in various fields like culinary arts, health science, education, technology, and applied science. The document contrasts the "old school" approach of having the teacher monopolize information and individual work with Satellite Center's emphasis on accessible information, team-based projects integrated across subjects, and detailed feedback to encourage improvement.

KU Leuven - Stellenbosch University Think Tank EADTU
This document outlines an extracurricular honors program between KU Leuven and Stellenbosch University called the Think Tank. It involves up to 15 students from each university working together virtually and during campus visits on an interdisciplinary research project over 10 months. Students define the research topic within a given theme and are coached by academic and administrative staff. The program aims to broaden students' knowledge across disciplines and cultures through activities like workshops, speaker sessions, and campus visits. Past themes have focused on art and science, technology and society, and urban planning. Feedback from participants highlighted the benefits of international collaboration and being challenged outside one's comfort zone.

Troy Stretton Students for Sustainability - The Sustainable ClassroomTroy Stretton
The document discusses the need for education to prepare students for the knowledge era by focusing on transferable skills like analyzing information, adapting to change, and collaborative learning. It advocates for an integrated curriculum that combines subjects like geography, history, science, and math through problem-based learning centered around local environmental issues. This allows students to engage in real-world inquiry, work with community experts, and take responsible action on problems that matter to them. The ideal classroom is a flexible learning space that facilitates student-driven, experiential, collaborative and connected learning both indoors and outdoors.
The Knowledge Integration program at the University of Waterloo allows students to integrate interests from different disciplines. Students take core courses that teach integration skills and how to collaborate. They also take a variety of electives to gain depth in their areas of interest and do a final research project in their fourth year. The program is flexible and supports students through academic advisors, professors, and the Knowledge Integration Student Society. Students participate in experiential learning opportunities like designing a museum exhibit and have pursued careers and further education in diverse fields after graduating.

How to Manage Reception Report in Odoo 17Celine George
A business may deal with both sales and purchases occasionally. They buy things from vendors and then sell them to their customers. Such dealings can be confusing at times. Because multiple clients may inquire about the same product at the same time, after purchasing those products, customers must be assigned to them. Odoo has a tool called Reception Report that can be used to complete this assignment. By enabling this, a reception report comes automatically after confirming a receipt, from which we can assign products to orders.

This document provides an overview of wound healing, its functions, stages, mechanisms, factors affecting it, and complications.
A wound is a break in the integrity of the skin or tissues, which may be associated with disruption of the structure and function.
Healing is the body’s response to injury in an attempt to restore normal structure and functions.
Healing can occur in two ways: Regeneration and Repair
There are 4 phases of wound healing: hemostasis, inflammation, proliferation, and remodeling. This document also describes the mechanism of wound healing. Factors that affect healing include infection, uncontrolled diabetes, poor nutrition, age, anemia, the presence of foreign bodies, etc.
Complications of wound healing like infection, hyperpigmentation of scar, contractures, and keloid formation.
