Technical education is essentially employment education.
Wang Zhaomeng, deputy secretary of the Party Committee and vice president of Xi'an Construction Engineering Technician College.
**, attaches great importance to the development of vocational education, since the reform and opening up, especially in recent years, actively promote the development of vocational education, support all levels and types of vocational education to develop characteristics, run the level. As an important part of vocational education, technical education is the main force to promote the construction of high-skilled talents. Carrying out the integration of engineering and learning is an important breakthrough to realize the reform of the talent training mode of technical colleges and improve the quality of skilled talent training. In Wang Zhaomeng's view, technical education is essentially employment education, and its most significant feature is vocational, and the best training mode is "learning on the job and working in learning". To promote the integration of engineering and learning, it is necessary to focus on realizing the transformation from knowledge indoctrination to ability training, from classroom teaching to production teaching, and from book teaching to practical teaching.
As a key technical college in Shaanxi Province, a national training base for high-skilled talents and a training base for the 46th and 47th WorldSkills Competitions in China, Xi'an Construction Engineering Technician College has carried out the integration of engineering teaching reform in five majors: construction technology, mechatronics technology, engineering cost, early childhood education, and UAV application technology. After several years of development, remarkable results have been achieved. The concept of integrated curriculum reform has been recognized by enterprises, schools and students. The integrated curriculum system and teaching content are more in line with the actual job requirements of the enterprise, and the teaching method strengthens the student-centered and mobilizes the enthusiasm of students to learn, which effectively improves the employment rate of graduates and the satisfaction of employers. Through the integrated curriculum reform, students' interest in learning has been significantly improved, from "I want to learn" to "I want to learn", and the teaching mode emphasizes "doing" as the main line throughout the whole teaching process, realizing the integration of "teaching, learning and doing", and the comprehensive quality, hands-on ability and practical work ability of students have been significantly improved.
The integration of engineering and learning is an all-round system engineering. At present, the party committee of the college has strengthened its leadership and accelerated the construction of supporting systems and facilities such as teaching management, internship management, teaching evaluation, teaching research, teacher management, teaching venues, capital investment, remuneration system, and logistics support according to the work objectives to ensure the smooth progress of the reform.
