| description | As a wave of innovation, arising from the post-industrial society in the West,
the Maker Movement is showing its unique characteristics in China after
being transmitted from the West. The sudden rise of the “Chinese version
of Maker Movement” (the Movement) is closely related to the national
strategy of “widespread entrepreneurship and innovation”. Through festivalmaking activities and the localization of makerspaces, China has redefined
the international maker culture. The impact of the Movement in China has
extended extensively and profoundly to the fields of economy, education and
culture. In the economic field, the Movement has promoted the popularization
of the means of production, changed the relations of production, and created
the new economic engine through innovations in economic systems. In the
field of education, it has fostered innovative talents through the promotion of
deeper learning and educational fairness. In terms of culture, it has enriched
the spirit of culture, improved cultural patterns, and innovated cultural
concepts. In the coming years, the Movement in China is likely to power the
following trends: First, it will develop rapidly as a new economic model and
business form; second, it will be more popular in forms of popularization and
entertainment; third, the Movement will spread from cities to villages; fourth,
even though the Movement may be temporarily halted due to potential failures
to break through constraints such as technology, markets, policies, and funds,
the Movement in China will generally present a spiraling upward trend. |
