Reform and Practice of Online-Offline Blended Teaching in the Mechanical Drawing Course through University-Enterprise Collaboration

Oct 29, 2026

Mechanical Drawing is a core technical course for cultivating engineering talent, and it requires continual reform as industry technologies and student learning habits evolve. This study leverages the “Online and Offline Blended First-Class Course of Mechanical Drawing” at Dongguan City University, using university-enterprise collaboration to redesign teaching objectives, contents, models, and the evaluation system. A circular teaching system with integration of online/offline delivery and recyclability is established, enabling alignment of course resources with industry development, improving engineering practice ability and innovative quality, and receiving positive student and enterprise recognition.

Reform and Practice of Online-Offline Blended Teaching in the "Mechanical Drawing" Course through University-Enterprise Collaboration Yuchun Yang*, Yuepeng Zenga, Hai Huangb College of Urban Construction and Intelligent Manufacturing, Dongguan City University, Dongguan, China * [469261130@qq.com](469261130@qq.com), [a](a 447620419@qq.com)[ 447620419@qq.com](a 447620419@qq.com), [b](b 24449676@qq.com)[ 24449676@qq.com](b 24449676@qq.com) [Abstract](Abstract). As the technical language of the industry, Mechanical Drawing is a crucial component in cultivating engineering talents. This study takes the construction of the "Online and Offline Blended First-Class Course of Mechanical Drawing" of Dongguan City University as an opportunity to establish cooperation with enterprises and comprehensively promote the curriculum reform through the university-enterprise collaboration. By reform the teaching objectives, teaching contents, teaching models and evaluation system, a circular teaching system of " university-enterprise collaboration, online and offline integration, and recyclability" has been constructed. This system has achieved a comprehensive reform of course resources, teaching models and evaluation feedback mechanisms, and provides guarantees for the synchronization of course content with the development of industry technologies, the alignment of teaching models with students' learning characteristics, and the adaptation of students' abilities to industry demands. Practice shows that the reform has significantly enhanced students' engineering practice ability and innovative quality, which has been recognized by enterprises. Meanwhile, most students have also given positive evaluations ofthe reform. This study provides valuable insights for application-oriented universities in mechanical drawing curriculum development.

With the rapid development of the manufacturing industry and the trend of integration of disciplines, the modern manufacturing industry has put forward higher requirements for technical talents, who not only need solid drawing ability but also need to have the ability to comprehensively apply multidisciplinary knowledge to solve practical problems [3] . On the other hand, © The Author(s) 2025 Y. Feng et al. (eds.), Proceedings of the 2025 International Conference on Digital Technology and Educational Psychology (DTEP 2025), Advances in Social Science, Education and Humanities Research 970, [https://doi.org/10.2991/978-2-38476-487-7_5](https://doi.org/10.2991/978-2-38476-487-7_5) technological advancements and social transformations have made the students' learning needs and learning habits also change significantly. As the core basic course for mechanical majors, in order to meet the continuous changes in the needs of society and industry, as well as accommodate the learning characteristics of contemporary students, the teaching reform of the mechanical drawing curriculum is imperative. With the increasing requirements for the fit between education and industry, the integration of industry and education has become a typical feature of the development of international higher education [4] . Zhang et al. highlighted that joint university-enterprise training strengthens students' practical experience and addresses the disconnect between theory and practice in traditional teaching [5] . Bakar et al. believed that schoolenterprise cooperation is of great significance for improving the quality of vocational education and promoting the cultivation of skilled talents [6]. Li et al. pointed out that university-enterprise cooperation ca
