Innovation And Entrepreneurship

China’s modern education system urgently requires entrepreneurship and innovation education. By reading literature, launching questionnaire, and giving interviews, we found that most colleges and universities in China neglect developing students’ practical ability in entrepreneurship and innovation education, and that the proposal made in existing research to add practical training just focuses on macro-guidance, with no specific solutions given. Therefore, we innovatively propose to introduce street stall economy into the curriculum based on the features and feasibility of China’s street stall economy, and offer recommendations for management and assessment by drawing on the experience of other places in administering street stall economy.

Survey Report

This study examined Chinese college students’ perceptions of the college English course. The participants were freshmen and sophomores in a Chinese university. We handed out the original English version questionnaires to 419 students. The results indicated that there were learning problems in students’ motivation with respect to empowerment, interest, and success. There were also gender and class standing differences among the participants. Data from exploratory factor analysis (EFA) illustrated that the factors of usefulness, empowerment and interest received the most attention from the participants (n=367). The results indicated that it was necessary to implement the communicative language teaching (CLT) approach in the college English course. Suggestions on how to change the classroom environment were also discussed.

Nevertheless, the differences between English and Chinese and the influence of mother tongue have caused great trouble in English study of Chinese college students, especially vocational college students. Among the problems, Chinglish is the most serious one which hinders them in making progress in English study. The author has carried out a study in Leshan Vocational and Technical College about vocational college students’ Chinglish problem. Hopefully, the paper is to help vocational college students to avoid Chinglish and further to provide some advice for English teaching and learning in colleges and universities, on the basis of the findings of the study like the types and causes of Chinglish.
