Abstract
Education, technology, and talent are now developing together. This makes improving academic continuing education an urgent task. The graduation thesis is a key part of training students, as it helps improve overall education quality. Writing a thesis helps students enhance their knowledge, skills, and thinking. But currently, the intrinsic needs of people involved, including administration departments, supervisors, and students, are not fully stimulated. Using Maslow’s hierarchy of needs theory, this paper looks at what these stakeholders actually need and suggests ways to improve the quality of graduation theses in academic continuing education.
