Under the background of public entrepreneurship and innovation, undergraduate innovative undertaking becomes an important subject in the present society. However, undergraduate students still lack recognition and precaution against intellectual property risk, which is one of the key elements deciding the success of undergraduate innovative undertaking. Undergraduate students, therefore, should establish the consciousness of respecting others' intellectual property and safeguarding their own, fully capitalizing on the support from related policy, ingeniously utilizing the information about intellectual property, and constructing consummate precautionary system of intellectual property risk.

The development of academic research is always accompanied by the continuous transformation of research methods, which can't be separated from the series of advanced systems science research methods. At present, there are three major problems in the academic debate in the field of Educational Technology, such as the lack of academic ideas, the vague theoretical roots and the lack of reference to related disciplines. Therefore, one needs to actively form and innovate the Educational Technology academic point of view and construct the ecological roots of Educational Technology research theory. On the other hand it also needs actively absorb and innovate from the education and the psychology. In the next period of time, the development of research methods of Educational Technology will pay more attention to the dialogue participatory research, the ecological research, research combining scientism with humanism, practical orientation of reflective education research and localization orientation of the original education research.

This paper takes the course of Microcomputer Use and Maintenance as an example, taking the junior students as the research object, and constructs a sequential procedure of pre-class (including preparing teaching content, making clear the teaching problems), while-class (including problem characterization, solution-path selection, and evaluation & feedback), and after-class (including application transfer) steps of a flipped classroom teaching model suitable for class and carries on the contrastive experiment between the flipped classroom and the traditional teaching through the two groups of students in the innovative experiment class of educational technology through the method of separate sample T test by self-learning ability, cooperative learning ability, academic record and learning satisfaction. The results show that the flipped classroom teaching model can cultivate the students' self-learning ability, cooperative learning ability and improve their academic performance and that the students are satisfied with the flipped classroom teaching model.

With the rapid development of information technology represented by big data and its continuous infiltration in the field of education, the importance of educational informatization in the process of higher education reform and development has become increasingly prominent. On the basis of understanding the basic characteristics and structure of big data, this study first summarizes the role of big data in the development of higher education from the theoretical level. Secondly, from the aspect of practice, this study analyzes the application of big data technology in the field of personalized learning, improving the teaching level of teachers, and promoting the reform of education and teaching in colleges and universities. Finally, this study puts forward the countermeasures to promote the deep integration of information technology and higher education from the practice level, theory level, system level and organization level.

In this study, TPACK as the theoretical basis, the following questions have been studied, the structure and characteristics of Chinese teachers TPACK in primary school. And factors that affect the TPACK structure of teachers. According to interviews, we explored structure and characteristics of TPACK as well as factors that affect the TPACK structure of the two teachers. Through analyzing the elementary school language teacher TPACK, I build the factors that affect the teacher's TPACK construct. The results can help teacher training departments for changing curriculum setting and improving the training mechanism and helping novice teachers to become expert teachers to adapt to the society.

Assessment is an important prerequisite for the intervention of children with autism. The traditional approach has a high dependence on the assessor's expertise and experience, and is susceptible to some subjective factors. Due to the lack of experienced assessors, it is necessary to investigate alternatives to assess the children with autism properly. Computer games have great potentials for assessment of children with autism, which provide objective results by collecting and analyzing the game data. However, the validity and reliability of assessment based on computer games still need to be investigated further. The comparative studies are carried out in this paper. Four assessment functions in the PEP (Psycho-Educational Profile) scale, such as perception, fine motor, hand eye coordination and cognitive performance, are compared with the computer games. The results indicate that the assessment based on computer games can correctly reflect the assessment results of traditional PEP scale. Statistical analysis confirms that these two methods are well consistent. Moreover, the assessment based on computer games can provide more quantitative indicators of the capacity of children with autism.

The degree of students actively engaging in learning greatly affects their academic achievement, cognitive development as well as education quality. Assessing student engagement in blended learning environment could help instructors and administrators understanding the quality of student learning, improving instructional design, in order to enhance student engagement in this environment. Based on the analysis of characteristic of blended learning environment, pivotal measurement indicators of student engagement, and related student engagement instruments, this paper designs and constructs a student engagement scale framework of blended learning environment in higher education, including the initially developed item pool.

The smart classroom is the materialization of the wisdom learning environment which provides technical support for the development of teaching and learning. Technology-enhanced assessment is helpful for improving learners' high-order thinking skills. In this paper, a rubric-based technology-enhanced assessment approach is proposed to help students design research proposal and draw mind map, evaluate peers' works and modify their own works. To evaluate the performance of the rubric-based technology-enhanced assessment approach for improving students' meta-cognitive awareness and learning achievement, an experiment was conducted in a college. A total of 83 students participating in the experiment were assigned to an experimental group and a control group. The students in the experimental group used the rubrics before designing the research proposal and mind map, while those in the control group used the rubrics after finishing them. From the experimental results, it was found that giving the rubrics before designing the research proposal and mind map significantly improved the students' meta-cognitive awareness and learning achievement and reduced the students' cognitive load.
