Re: [MTC Global] US universities lead in innovation, Asia a rising power

True.

We are following Macaulay's model in our education system with so called occasional reforms wherever we find strengthening one's chair.

The scenario:

We have left behind chalk-talk and adopted mobile technology to instruct students at the eleventh hour regarding their tests, assignment submission, etc. without regard to the fact whether the topic is taught or not.
We firmly believe teaching (institution) and industry are separate, independent and can survive without the help of each other.
Teaching and research are separate and not at ll related.
Teaching bears no community, government or social responsibility.
Teaching is the softest profession requiring no accountability, no performance , no target.with monthly assured income.

Subject: [MTC Global] US universities lead in innovation, Asia a rising power

Asian is an umbrella term, used by lazywestern journalists to club 5 very different regions together.

The 1 new oil & gas comes from ';Central Asia';, the 2 new war and refugees come from ';West Asia';, the 3 new '; economic and military growth'; comes from ';East Asia';, the 4 new ';hope and dynamism'; comes from SE Asia, 5 the new hope forreform momentum in administration comes from ';South Asia';

India is certainly not part of the Asia in which its Universities are exhibiting';dynamism in Innovation';. Its China, South Korea, Japan and perhaps Singapore / Taiwan.

It shall require generational mindset makeover for Indian Universities to permit, leave alone, encourage Innovation in enabling teaching / learning outcomes and incentivizing Innovative thought leaders.

US universities lead the world in scientific innovation but face strong competition from Asian rivals with close ties to industry, according to a detailed analysis of academic papers and patent filings, writes Ben Hirschler forReuters.

The inaugural Reuters Top 100 survey, published mid-September, places Stanford University in top spot, reflecting its position as a crucible for new ideas at the heart of Silicon Valley. Stanford alumni have gone on to create some of the world';s biggest technology companies, including Hewlett-Packard, Yahoo and Google. The top nine places are all taken by US colleges, with Massachusetts Institute of Technology and Harvard University ranked second and third. Asian universities are a growing force in scientific innovation and have proved particularly adept at turning this into products, with South Korea – home to rising tech giants such as Samsung – scoring highly in patent approvals. South Korea has eight schools in the top 100 universities, while Japan has nine – more than all countries bar the United States.

The new Reuters league table aims to produce the most comprehensive and systematic ranking of academic innovation to date by analysing 10 different measures, based on the volume and impact of scientific research, the volume and success of patent filings and the use of cited discoveries in the academic and corporate worlds.
