Abstract

Maker space has become an important position for students' scientific and technological innovation practices in many colleges and universities. Our research is focused on the operation of a shared maker space based on the product driven for an engineering education union. Firstly, practice teaching assistant system is established for the students to preview in advance. Series of the basic practice massive open online courses (MOOC) curriculums and virtual reality platforms are two main contents in the system. Students would be familiar with the basic practice skills for the product through the system. Then a student association led by instructor is organized for the management of the maker space. The student association is responsible for the event organization and product promotion. Finally, the top-level design is proposed by the school-enterprise association based on innovative technology. The innovative design would be applied to the product according to the product requirement. Through the maker space, product lifecycle curriculum is provided to the students. Within two years of operation, the products made by the students have won a number of national awards. The construction and operation of makerspace is of great significance to the sharing of higher education parks and the improvement of students' scientific innovation practice level.
