Bi Sheng invented movable type printing, and its influence on world civilization continues to this day. Nowadays, Shanghai Publishing and Printing College (referred to as "Shanghai Edition College") uses a network cable to connect the field of Chinese and foreign printing media technology, so that the father of movable type printing technology has once again "fired" overseas.
Recently, the "Bisheng Workshop" (Chinese + Skills 2021 Cloud Classroom) was officially launched. It is reported that an elite group of experts in the field of skills, including Zhang Shuping, silver medalist of the 44th WorldSkills Competition print media technology and ambassador of the 46th WorldSkills Competition Shanghai Bid, Teng Li, former director of the Shanghai Printing Museum, will open a series of "Chinese + skills" courses to provide training for young people in the "Belt and Road" countries.
【Undertake the connotation of "Luban Workshop"】
On September 3, 2018, President Xi Jinping proposed at the Beijing Summit of the Forum on China-Africa Cooperation that China would set up 10 Luban workshops in Africa and provide skills training to African youth.
After the printing industry of the countries along the "Belt and Road" introduced printing equipment made in China, due to the lack of technical personnel, there were certain difficulties in the operation of printing equipment, the supply of parts and components, and equipment maintenance, and the machinery and equipment could not play the greatest role. In this context, Shanghai Publishing and Printing College docked with the connotation of the strategic idea of "Luban Workshop" and put forward the idea of opening "Bisheng Workshop". This course not only provides technical training and Chinese training for local printing enterprise employees and printing school students, but also builds a cooperation platform for Chinese printing enterprises and foreign printing enterprises, provides information services and solutions, and promotes the export of Chinese products and Chinese services.
"Bisheng Workshop" is a new type of entity platform for vocational education services jointly built by the Shanghai edition and the Tashkent Institute of Textile and Light Industry in Uzbekistan. The entire training starts in mid-November and lasts for 2 months from mid-January next year. Courses include Chinese, History of Chinese Publishing and Printing, Print Media Technology, Packaging Planning and Design, and more. Combining online and offline, offline is for international students in the Shanghai version of the college; online radiation from Uzbekistan, Kazakhstan, Russia, Belarus, Bangladesh, Pakistan and other countries and regions thousands of students. Chen Bin, president of the Shanghai edition, said that the school will continue to carry out high-quality media technology training for students and employees of vocational colleges and universities along the "Belt and Road".
【Shanghai Vocational Education "Going Global"】
At the "BiSheng Workshop", the trainees can not only learn the skills and become the printing talents needed by the local area, but also learn the traditional Chinese culture such as Chinese language, Chinese calligraphy and painting, and experience the charm of Chinese. Kakhla Monović, president of the Tashkent Textile Institute, a partner of the "Bisheng Workshop", said: "Last year, the first 'Bisheng Workshop' refresher course received a good response and was widely loved and praised by teachers and students, and teachers and students are also full of expectations for this training. ”
Ingebel Vinnie, a Chinese language student from Rwanda in Africa, is a student of "Bisheng Workshop", and he hopes that in addition to learning Chinese, he can also learn advanced technology and Chinese culture through the "Bisheng Workshop" course, master a skill, make himself a "China Pass", and hope to engage in work related to economic exchanges between China and Rwanda in the future.
Wu Yingjun, director of the International Exchange Department of the Shanghai Municipal Education Commission, commented that the "Bisheng Workshop" docked with the national strategy and was a "Luban Workshop" that was "small and beautiful" and "accurate and refined". This is a useful attempt by Shanghai vocational education to 'go out' to run schools and a new excellent practice result of Shanghai vocational education opening up to the outside world, which promotes the cultural exchanges between China and foreign countries in the field of printing and media, and promotes the international innovation and development of vocational education.
In the next step, the Shanghai edition will enhance the radiation scope and influence of "Bisheng Workshop", deploy and build points in a wider range, and include all vocational colleges that are willing to jointly build a "Belt and Road" skill community and serve international cooperation in printing capacity into the circle of friends of "Bisheng Workshop".
