Planned obsolescence CAS 13 and manipulation of customers lead to accumulation of waste and waste economy.

The Phd students and unemployed people are encouraged to create their companies while the conditions for success are provided not.

Learning from nature and applying this knowledge to innovation may reduce its impacts and risks,

their interactions and their playgrounds and gives some available elements of their impact. Chapter 2 provides the readers with the main definitions and spectrum of innovation.

such as multidisciplinary research results, the innovation fields, social system, culture and motivations, long-and mid-term economic and Educational innovation Landscape and Fields 5 planning and motivation to work.

if everyone learns a new common language instead of privileging one's mother tongue. Esperanto was created by Ludwik Lazarus Zamenhof in 1873 ZAM 87 with the aim to provide a world communication language that everybody has to learn as a second language.

Serious games combining immersion and training changed the traditional way of learning. Computers in all forms are everywhere

offered distance learning to all, helped people to communicate and become clever in communication in order to become leaders.

Pushed by students, on the one hand, and technology providers, on the other hand, education has become an intensive user of ICT.

Politics want it to be centered students. However the educational program is adapted not to changing industrial and economic environments.

To give one example the conquest of the space could not be done without technology. In space, satellites extend the communication facilities On earth.

Their vision, strategy and innovation attitude have been fruitful in possession of a huge amount of data they have become the master of the world through data, the new capital.

They have to respect a code of conduct. Games, in particular violent, brutal, sadistic and bloody flashgames, on the Internet, may seriously influence the young and less young players.

Daniel Byman (Professor in the Security Studies Program at the Edmund A. Welsh School of Foreign Services at Georgetown University) states that drones offer a comparatively low-risk way of targeting terrorists

Virtual autopsy helps students learning medicine. Technology enables the detection of serious illnesses in the initial stages (X-rays, MRI and ultrasonography.

while the current educational system is adapted not to create more doctors, combined with a social security system that has less money.

which lets them learn about new culture and a new language, gain knowledge and network to find partners for applying to EC programs or jobs.

The current education system focuses on fields to learn and on supporting technology. The teaching methods do not facilitate obtaining the skills required by the current economic environment.

Each subject of core curricula is taught by specialized professors (geography history, mathematics, etc. and there is not enough time allocated to collaborative projects (problem-solving),

involving several fields and allowing learning by acting together. A lot of technology is pushed but the learning methods have changed a little and the content remains the same.

The entrepreneurial spirit is not a part of the curriculum in Europe, but we progress. Traditional Masters'of Business Administration (MBA) courses are introduced late in some engineering schools.

The impact of education on employment/entrepreneurship is evaluated not. A little feedback from companies is possible via internship at the condition of willing to take this point into account.

The government elaborates the innovation policy without involving companies research centers and citizens. They decide the rules, the amount of taxes, laws for employment, public research system and educational program.

Some incentives for innovation are offered but the selection methods do not accept any breakthrough idea from outside the system.

Researchers are pushed for entrepreneurship without any preparation by educational system. Innovation Ecosystems 63 The task of technology is to provide an intelligent support to the whole system.

An organized flow of knowledge with feedback and selected practice will support continuous learning. All activities benefit from the environment

U multirank, European project, defined the right evaluation criteria, but it will be introduced to the educational and research system, will be practiced

Another condition for fruitful innovation is taking into account the impact on living and planet and learning from the environment.

and knowledge by attracting the best students, young researchers and entrepreneurs. It should also help to increase the efficiency of technology transfer.

It must be focused on graduates and must assert an overall view of its actions according to the results

The duty of educational systems is to integrate a creative way of thinking into educational programs, from kids to university.

This involves the radical revision of educational system and those of research publication and evaluation. Eco-design is an example of 76 The Innovation Biosphere convergence of traditional design methods (lifecycle analysis) with intelligent technology

if only the universities succeed with connecting their research objectives and motivation with regional ones and express their interest in

union's claims and educational program adapted to the current challenge. As there are many unemployed not only in France,

Certainly, this vision could be applied for an IT professor. Such a professor could be replaced by a robot in the nearest future.

The role of IT (including AI) is to teach the synergy between human computers and other intelligent machines and how to combine the best of both capabilities to help humans in their activities and increase their well-being.

It raises another challenge for educational system: to extend teaching of intelligent systems. One of the most difficult challenges remains the evolution of mentality and the way of thinking.

The China world factory ambition is to become the master of the world. How many years will it take to understand that this way is dead end?

96 The Innovation Biosphere Major rethinking University IP policies including Chief Academic Innovation Officers with a focus on building the flow of knowledge across stakeholders.

New field of Knowledge/Innovation Economics has emerged learning to measure the intangible value. The recent OECD publication OEC 14a reviews the key trends in science, technology and innovation policies,

monitoring, evaluating, learning and improving. Such an approach rests on close cooperation with private and nongovernmental actors which have better knowledge about the innovation barriers

and networks in learning, experience sharing, integrating feedback for improvement and improving the innovation policy (knowledge flow).

while the other fields are also playgrounds for successful innovation. The emphasis is made on involving the venture capital (VC) industry at the early stage of start-ups lifecycle.

It focuses on well-designed performance measures of existing policies, continuous feedback and learning for improvement.

This action focuses on higher education and research, research evaluation criteria, university ranking, knowledge alliances and e-skills;

involving partners, competitors, universities and users; corporate entrepreneurship: enhancing corporate venturing, start-ups and spin-offs; proactive intellectual property management:

The previous government (2007 2012) introduced the autonomy of public universities and launched the reforms innovation for 8 http://www. retis-innovation. fr. 114 The Innovation Biosphere industry,

the Plan of Future Investments of €35 billion was launched in 2010 and centered on higher education, research and industries of tomorrow.

universities with research departments each have a special service devoted to technology transfer, instead of grouping them at the city or regional level.

The french National Research Agency (ANR) provides funding for project-based research in all fields of science for both basic and applied research to public research organizations and universities,

Employing a method based on competitive peer reviews, ANR attaches great importance to providing the scientific community with instruments

ANR has also been the principal operator of the Investments for the Future program in the field of higher education and research.

better evaluation of public research and closer coordination between industry and the public sector. Universities with powerful public research should be involved better in the process.

Masters'of Entrepreneurship and schools are now booming, but only a few teach modern entrepreneurship. In Europe, the United states and other countries, efforts are made to encourage students

and Phd scholars to start their companies. Almost every university in France has the transfer service.

Evaluation of projects is made once a year to offer €5 000 to the best project.

Many events are devoted to pushing people, particularly students and researchers to become entrepreneurs. Innovation contests are blooming.

The infrastructure of innovation considers the role of universities, incubators and other possible supports for innovation-related activities.

students must learn realworld problem-solving; we have to connect science and business. There is also the need for a common language facilitating communication between innovation and social/labor experts.

Their foundation invests on social and educational programs and supports disasters. HP Life E-learning offers free information technology (IT) training.

For example, do not remove a student from the database after he dropped out since this may lead to misleading analysis results.

For example, it is often not 112 W. M. P. van der Aalst useful to know the name of a student,

but it may be important to still be able to use his high school marks and know what other courses he failed.

Consider for example the study process of students taking a particular course. Rather than creating one process model for all students,

one could create (1) a process model for students that passed and a process model for students that failed,(

2) a process model for male students and a process model for female students, or (3) a process model for Dutch students and a process model for international students.
