Building innovation capability in SMEs through university-business collaboration

Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) often struggle with company innovation, compared to their larger counterparts. A university-business collaboration (UBC) programme in the north of the Netherlands attempts to increase the innovation capabilities of regional SMEs with the support of graduating bachelor students. The 18-months long Hanze Innovation Traineeship Programme (HITP) combines the graduation phase with a consecutive 12-months traineeship, during which students are meant to implement an innovation at the company. We measure the innovation capacity of the participating SMEs at the beginning of the programme and identify strong and weak points within the organisations. We discuss the outcomes of the HITP for SME innovation and further evaluate the programme’s suitability on the intended student learning outcomes.

The implementation of the "Merdeka Belajar" (Freedom to Learn) Curriculum faces various challenges, including in terms of curriculum implementation and adjustment. These challenges include changes in student learning patterns, the broader role of teachers, and efforts to meet the established educational standards.

For example, in the cognitive aspect, when studying the Grade IV lesson on Developing My Abilities, the students' learning outcomes were unsatisfactory. Out of a total of 6 students, around 4 (67%) scored below the Minimum Completeness Criteria (KKM), which was set at 75. In this classroom action research, the researcher focuses on the dimension of critical thinking, based on the importance of building strong character and mental attitudes in the younger generation, especially in facing complex global challenges. Creative thinking skills will result in more effective learning and develop higher reasoning abilities that can be used to solve various problems in learning. Students with creative thinking skills tend to have high intrinsic motivation, strong drive, self-confidence, and better thinking abilities. In this model, the teacher acts as a facilitator who helps students develop deep understanding and relevant skills through motivation, stimulating questions, and support for meaningful learning experiences. PBL focuses on common everyday problems, and its process involves problem identification, data collection, and the use of data to solve problems. The primary goal of PBL is to develop critical thinking, problem-solving skills, and knowledge acquisition, helping to improve students' learning outcomes and critical thinking skills in the topic of developing self-abilities in Grade IV at SD Negeri Sawahan, Surakarta.

The researcher acted as the teacher, while the Grade IV teacher served as a collaborative partner and observer. The learning process was conducted over two cycles, with each cycle consisting of planning, action implementation, observation, and reflection. Data were collected through the observation of student and teacher activities, student learning outcome tests, and documentation. In the first cycle, student learning outcomes showed improvement, with 8 students meeting the minimum passing criteria (KKM) and the highest score being 90. The test was continued in the second cycle with some minor adjustments, and the results showed further improvement, with 11 students meeting the KKM and the highest score remaining 90. Based on the findings of this research, it can be concluded that the application of the Problem Based Learning (PBL) model can improve student learning outcomes in Catholic Religious Education for Grade IV. The mastery of student learning outcomes in the first cycle reached 72.72% according to the post-test results, and increased to 86.36% in the second cycle, indicating an improvement of 13.64%.
