No teaching method is currently available, however, about achieving a harmonized learning outcome of puzzling knowledge. To fill this educational gap, we developed an incrementally innovative learning-centered method; the consensual cooperativelearning method (CCL) and tested it on a group of executives enrolled in an innovation management PhD program. This paper describes the CCL method and highlights the potential of combining and building upon self-learning methods in achieving harmonized acquisition of sophisticated knowledge.

The Impact of Intellectual Property Protection Mechanisms on Innovation and Economic Growth Empirical Study on Industrial Sector In the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, 2019

Therefore these protection mechanisms and strategies which firms use are intended to protect their intellectual property and knowledge that can be strongly influence their ability to the benefits of their innovative industrial efforts. This study investigated how Saudi firms can chose from a range of mechanisms, including patents, trade secrets and lead times advantage over competitors which allow firms to gain a technological edge over the competition for a period of time. This strategy consists in innovating more one firm also use IP-based strategies increasingly for purposes other than just protection against imitation quickly than one's rivals, and how to determine the proper enforcement and protection should be implemented of IPR as stipulated by modern Saudi IP laws and/or by international agreements signed by the Saudi government. This study also highlights whether and how such uses of formal or informal protection mechanisms and strategies by Saudi's firms will contribute to the acceleration of innovation and economic growth performance at both the firm and country level. Furthermore this study also argues that it is possible for Saudi firms to use a strong enforcement and protection mechanisms of IPR through the enforcement of religious law, and through other means and measures that are compatible with Sharia and the 1 cultural environment of Saudi Arabia, which is in general strongly religious, traditional, and conservative. The study is divided into four main parts, as follows. Part I, comprises introduction and general background of uses of protection mechanisms and strategies of Saudis firms in this regards. Part II, emphasizes the significance and importance of the study. Part III, deals with the conceptual framework, research methodology, research design, delimitation of the study, population of the study, sampling techniques, method of data analysis, data collection procedure, statistical method and hypothesis development. Part IV, conclusion and suggestions for future research.
