focusesthe model of university-industry collaborative cultivation on the needs of studentinternship. The collaborative models can be divided into two categories. The firstcategory is a “theoretical study before internships” model, such as the “3+1” model. Inthis model, the students will study at university for the first three years and do privateenterprise internships in the last year. For example, Xi'an University of Science andTechnology arranges for students to complete study in the enterprises in the seventhand eighth semesters. The student should finish courses related to enterprises’ actualoperation, be familiar with the enterprise, start pre-job training, develop career plans,etc. in the seventh semester, followed by the post practice in the

The display of adaptive expertise has been said to "ultimatelylead to students' depth of knowledge and habits of mind that lead to success in their career andenable them to be innovators in the field" [2]. For this reason, it is important for educators andscholars to explore how we can better prepare our students to showcase adaptive expertise. It isequally important to assess the effectiveness of our attempts at facilitating this development.Think-a-louds, [3] interviews [1], and self-report surveys [4] [1] [5][6] [7] have all been used tomeasure adaptive expertise
