What is scientific creativity? (46) True scientific creativity is often presumed to be the preserve of independent investigators operating in an environment with none of the practical or political concerns that bother many other workers.In truth, far from being creative, most scientists spend much of their time worrying about funding, sitting in meetings and dealing with administrative bureaucracy.In this age of economic austerity, has the concept of absolute academic autonomy become a luxury that the scientific enterprise can no longer afford ?
But, in many ways, academics do live very sheltered lives by today's standards—how many other careers offer tenure or employment for life? (47)And, frequently, an individual's insistence on working as free from restrictions as possible can be taken too far, forcing everyone and everything around them to accommodate their needs.This becomes a waste of time and effort—in other words, of money.
Consultant Thomas Marty describes how, in some departments, faculty members insist on each doing their own course planning, choosing times and subjects independently.(48) This forces the administration to revise courses to ensure that the credits assigned to each are consistent, that students have taken the necessary knowledge the professors require, and that everything is presented in the format that the computer system recognizes, so that students can register online.Although this may sound like part of administrators' responsibilities, the job can be so big that one department had to dedicate two full-time staff members to resolving such conflicts.Yet academics often complain about the resources their universities devote to administration.
Scientists may rage against some of the suggestions proposed to improve the efficiency of the research enterprise.Increase the power of institute directors and university presidents so they can make more executive decisions without asking for faculty members' input? Place a "tax" on the use of temporary workers such as graduate students and postdocs, to encourage scientists to hire more permanent staff scientists?
But scientists should think twice about this instinctive, defensive approach.Something that may seem a threat to academic autonomy is often quite the opposite.(49) A standard pattern for course planning that all faculty members must adhere to, for example, with strict deadlines for each phase,could cut the number of course revisions.This would free staff to deal with other administrative issues, letting the scientists who had been shouldering that burden get back to research and teaching.(50) Although giving leaders more power to make executive decisions without consulting faculty members may seem to threaten academic independence, in this instance giving updecision-making powers allows scientists to spend more time doing creative,independent research.

答案:

null

解析:

该题主要探讨了真正意义上的科研创新的含义及其与独立研究者的关系。根据文中的描述,真正意义上的科研创新通常被认为是独立研究者的特权,因为他们能够在不受现实问题和政治干扰的环境中专注于科研工作。与此相反,大多数科学家则需要处理各种行政事务和筹集资金等实际问题,这些活动可能会分散他们的注意力,影响他们在科研创新方面的表现。因此,真正的科研创新被视为一种特权,需要独立研究者具备特定的条件和环境才能得以实现。
