Session 6 Activity - Analyzing institutional contexts on the innovation

TOPIC: Innovations in own school or workplace

Hey guys,
I post the topic we should do in the session 6. Please post you own ideas about it here. And my own experience about the innovations in my school as follow:

As you know I had the accounting background in my undergraduate school. And during my studying, we should use the computer to do some financial matters. We should use general financial software and U8 system to support us a better understanding of the accounting when we are going to work in society.

In terms of the general financial software, we should learn deeply in the excel application. In the final of the course we should create a interface like a system which can be used in reality and it must support the financial working. We learnt a lot of the function to support some difficult counting on the computer. It is one of the  most useful course in my accounting course during my undergraduate school.

As to the U8, it is a virtual system that we use it just like we are the worker in different company to do the real working for that company. There are many sub-system in U8, we should learn all the part to get the better understanding of the real work of accounting in the real company. Because in China, almost companies are using this system in their accounting department, so it is also a very useful course.

However, in terms of the accounting studying in the innovative environment is very difficult, maybe different companies use the different system. But for the school education, it is impossible for them the use all the system among their curricula. How to make the connection between school and companies is a big problem. Because accounting is a application curriculum, most of the students will take over the job in the accounting department, so getting  accustom to the system in their companies is very important both for students and companies.

  1. I would like to talk about the innovative practice in my undergraduate university -- SCNU. Alumni of SCNU donated money for developing a university app, this app is very useful for students learning, because students can check the newest lecture inforamtion on this app, also they can communicate with teachers and classmates through this app. Students can pose questions on the app, then teachers or other classmates can answer these questions or discuss with them. I like this innovative practice is similar to the case CN009.
    Besides, there are library and Lost-and-Found function of this app. Through this app, students and teachers can check and borrow books from library, or if they lost something, they can find them through this app. So I think this app makes students and teachers have the better university life.
