Optimization of university students’ entrepreneurial ability cultivation and biomechanics—Based knowledge sharing environment
Abstract
In the current information age, knowledge sharing, as one of the core features, provides a new perspective for innovation and entrepreneurship education (IEE) innovation. This study aims to explore the process of cultivating university students’ entrepreneurial ability, optimize the knowledge sharing environment by establishing a specialized biomechanics knowledge sharing platform, strengthen the proportion of practical teaching in biomechanics-related majors, integrate the latest research results and innovation cases in biomechanics into the innovation and entrepreneurship education, stimulate the students’ innovation interest and entrepreneurial awareness, and further promote the college students in biomechanics field to further development of IEE for college students in the field of biomechanics.. By using the research methods of literature review, questionnaire survey, multiple linear regression and structural equation model, this article analyzes the influence of knowledge sharing environment on students’ entrepreneurial will, biomechanics application ability and overall educational effect after incorporating biomechanics concept. It is found that the various complex problems faced in biomechanics research provide opportunities for college students to cultivate innovative thinking and problem-solving abilities; for example, by introducing the application of biomechanics in medical devices, sports science, biomedical engineering and other fields, students are guided to think about how to develop new products or services using biomechanical principles, thus cultivating their innovative thinking and entrepreneurial spirit. the frequency of dissemination and application of biomechanical knowledge in the knowledge sharing mechanism is positively related to students’ entrepreneurial intention, which plays a significant role in improving the biomechanical knowledge and utilization of the students in the process of entrepreneurship. Carrying out biomechanics-related entrepreneurship programs can cultivate the teamwork ability of college students. In the entrepreneurial process, students from different professional backgrounds, such as biomechanics majors, engineering majors, marketing majors, etc., need to work together to transform biomechanical research results into actual products and market them. This kind of inter-disciplinary teamwork can exercise the communication and coordination ability, resource integration ability and team management ability of college students. The results of this study not only confirm the positive effect of biomechanics-based knowledge sharing mechanism based on biomechanics on IEE, but also provide theoretical support and practical guidance for tertiary education institutions on how to optimize the knowledge sharing environment and improve the quality of entrepreneurship education.
