A Ptf Framework for Undergraduate Innovation Education: Integration Within the Modern Emerging Engineering Education
Year: 2025
Type: article
Abstract: In response to the reform imperative of engineering education under modernization, a novel education model named PTF (one-Pyramid, Two-axis, Four-driving) learning ecosystem is proposed and validated. The model comprises a Pyramid-style, hierarchical sequence of four types of innovation and entrepreneurship competitions—foundation, professional fundamentals, professional integration, and top comprehensive—along with a progression of projects from college-level scientific innovation to national-level innovation and entrepreneurship initiatives. Two platforms are established: an Innovation Education-Service-Platform and an Integrated-Practice-Platform, which enable sustained positive attention and growth in project activity, thereby enabling qualitative change. Four driving elements are identified: Cultural Driver, which builds an immersive environment for innovation; Institutional Driver, which provides structured guidance and motivation; Resource Driver, which supplies the physical and intellectual infrastructure; and Outcome Driver, which ensures practical validation and value creation. The PTF model offers a viable paradigm for the reform of modern engineering education to cultivate adaptable and innovative talents with in-depth thinking abilities who can tackle future complex challenges.
