CULTIVATING CRAFTSMANSHIP SPIRIT THROUGH SCHOOL–ENTERPRISE COOPERATION: A COLLABORATIVE SYSTEMS THEORY PERSPECTIVE
Keywords:
Collaborative systems theory, School–enterprise cooperation, Craftsmanship spiritAbstract
In the context of the new era, school–enterprise cooperation serves as a crucial pathway for the promotion and cultivation of craftsmanship spirit. It also constitutes a systematic endeavor that connects multiple informational elements between institutional talent development and enterprise workforce demands. Collaborative Systems Theory provides a methodological foundation for addressing the interplay among shared objectives, collaborative intent, and communication linkages across organizations. As such, school–enterprise cooperation requires the theoretical support of Collaborative Systems Theory to co-construct an objective framework, an implementation pathway, and a guarantee mechanism for nurturing students’ craftsmanship spirit. Ultimately, this approach embeds the cultivation of craftsmanship spirit throughout the entire process of skilled talent development and shapes a comprehensive collaborative system for fostering craftsmanship spirit through joint efforts between schools and enterprises.References
