Abstract:

This study investigated the professional competence of innovative and entrepreneurial teachers in application-oriented universities. It aimed to assess the development status of teachers’ professional competence. There are six(6) dimensions of teachers’ professional competence, including teaching, scientific research and professional development, entrepreneurship training and guidance, communication and cooperation ,student education and management, and resource integration. The participants of the study are 160 innovative and entrepreneurial teachers from 10 application-oriented universities in Guangxi, China. The findings showed that innovative and entrepreneurial teachers’ professional competence in six(6) dimensions presented unbalanced development. They showed a high level in four(4) dimensions: students’ education and management, communication and cooperation, teaching and resource integration. However, scientific research and professional development, entrepreneurship training and guidance showed moderate level. Based on the above conclusions, this study put forward the action plan for innovative and entrepreneurial teachers. The results of the study can be used as an important basis for improving the professional competence of innovative and entrepreneurial teachers in application-oriented universities, and as a useful reference for educational administrators to carry out practice and formulate policies.
