Under the background of the era of rapid change, the current education system is more severe impact and challenge. Creative industry is the product of cultural industry development to a new stage, is the most creative cultural industry and the origin of the core part of the new economic era of creativity industry is the condition of globalization. The research indicates that the combination of the big data with digital media is necessary and needed. In the future, we will test more related combination and creativeness.展开更多

This fragmentation provides limited guidance for policymakers and practitioners, hindering effective decision-making and the development of best practices. Following the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) guidelines, the review analyzed 33 empirical studies focused on enhancing farmers' innovativeness in Africa. This analysis was based on a search that yielded 2891 records published up to June 29, 2024. These records were meticulously screened to meet predefined inclusion criteria. The studies were sourced from the Web of Science and Scopus databases, with additional documents identified through Google Scholar. The findings reveal that (1) farmers' innovativeness varies across different extension approaches;(2) digital-based approaches promote the highest levels of innovation adoption, mainly for non-technological innovation, while integrated approaches perform best for technological innovations;(3) both digital-based and integrated approaches are more effective for knowledge acquisition;(4) digital-based and multi-stakeholder approaches are more effective for fostering continuous innovation;(5) capacity building, community and social networks, and access to resources and support emerged as the most significant drivers of farmers’ innovativeness;and (6) positive impacts with a greater focus on environmental and economic dimensions were reported, although variability in outcomes suggests that context-specific factors play a crucial role. This review provides valuable insights for policymakers and practitioners aiming to improve agricultural extension services and foster farmers' innovativeness. It emphasizes the need for context-sensitive approaches that support farmers in navigating complex agricultural challenges.展开更多

A quadruple model of global strategy is introduced. The model is based on the introduction of an innovation-based perspective of strategy. This is in addition to the other three but well-known perspectives of global strategy (industry-based, resource-based, and institution-based views). Thus, the four perspectives of strategy could lead a complete set of factors that need to be analyzed for the formulation of global strategy. The model could assist organizations in sustaining their competitive advantages. It is proposed that the introduction of the innovation-based view represents the fourth perspective of a strategy quadruple, thus overcoming a long-standing criticism, namely, the global strategy may lack adequate attention to innovation in developing a firms' global competitive strategies. This paper presents a set of four hypotheses. When tested, these hypotheses could result in a better understanding of the link between the innovation and the global strategy domain. Furthermore, the quadruple model could be useful in understanding the relationship between innovativeness and business performance. It is anticipated that this paper could assist researchers, business management, and analysts in developing global innovation strategies.展开更多
