An Applied Study On Simulation Teaching Method In Secondary Vocational School’s Major Courses

This thesis is a systematic study of simulation teaching method applied on major courses in secondary vocational schools. The thesis points out simulation teaching can enhance student’s learning interest and confidence, improve students’comprehensive occupation abilities and offer students a good learning environment as this teaching method is subjective, applicable, reactive, creative and situational. And simulation teaching should observe four principles, which unite environment and economy, combine vocational teaching and thought, put teaching forms and content together and associate the role of teachers with the part of students. Theoretically simulation teaching is based on three principles-subjectivity, practice and direct observation. This teaching method is indispensible to being applied on construction course in a secondary vocational school and it has achieved a lot. It has promoted the school’s development, aroused teachers’ enthusiasm for teaching and research, increased students’ learning confidence. However, there are still some problems hindering the application of the teaching method as the method requires sufficient teaching equipment, enough qualified teachers, standardized teaching, the combination of teaching and information technology and other related aspects. Therefore, when applying the simulation teaching method a secondary vocational school needs to pay attention to many elements. The school should deepen multi-cooperation to optimize the simulation teaching environment, apply this method flexibly to make it combine other teaching methods and strengthen the training of major courses teachers to enhance the teaching quality. Moreover, the school should attach more importance to the standardization of teaching to ensure its outcome, make the simulation teaching combine with information technology to realize a modern simulation teaching.
