Abstract

Against the backdrop of the new era, labor education has emerged as a pivotal link in cultivating high-quality applied talents. This paper takes the "Three-Color Guidance, Three-Park Interaction, and Three-Entity Co-Education" labor education practice project at Xuzhou University of Technology as a case study, delving into its project objectives, practical content, implementation pathways, and achieved outcomes. Grounded in regional industrial demands, the project optimizes teaching content through multi-dimensional linkage, integrates internal and external resources, and constructs a holistic educational closed-loop, providing a replicable and scalable "Xuzhou Model" for labor education reform in local universities. This model holds significant implications for driving educational innovation, serving society, and fostering individual development.
