The construction of high-quality modern vocational education system needs to speed up the process of teaching reform,and curriculum reform is the basis of teaching reform.As one of the core courses of tourism majors in secondary vocational schools,Tour Guide Practice plays an active role in training tour guides.However,in the actual teaching,problems such as the weakening of the student’s dominant position,the not obvious sense of collaboration among students,and the irrational distribution of roles are more prominent.Thus it is urgent to reform Tour Guide Practice teaching methods.Optimizing the role-playing method,which is widely used at present,is an important measure to deepen curriculum reform,optimize classroom teaching and improve the quality of curriculum teaching.This paper mainly uses literature research,questionnaire survey,interview survey and statistical analysis method to carry out the research.First of all,through the literature research method,the related literature of role-playing method is combed,and on this basis,the concept,type and main theories involved in role-playing method are explained.Secondly,the necessity and feasibility of the application of role-playing method in the teaching of tour guide practice in secondary vocational schools are analyzed.Thirdly,through the statistical analysis of questionnaire and interview survey,the following problems are found in the implementation of the role-playing method:(1)In the preparation stage,teachers and students are not fully prepared,and the way in which students’ roles are assigned is not reasonable.(2)In the implementation stage,the participation of students in role-playing classroom is not high,the main position of students is not well highlighted,and the time for teachers to implement role-playing teaching is not reasonable.(3)In the summary stage,the teaching evaluation is not perfect and the content of teaching reflection is not comprehensive.The above problems can be mainly attributed to three aspects:students,teachers and schools.Finally,in order to solve the above problems and improve the quality of curriculum teaching,this paper proposes the following optimization strategies for role-playing method based on the theory of embodied cognition.First,in the preparation stage,teachers should prepare carefully and mobilize the students’ subjective initiative.Second,in the implementation stage,teachers should pay attention to students and teaching details.Third,in the summary stage,teachers should conduct mutual evaluations in an orderly manner and reflect on sublimation of the classroom.This study adheres to the problem orientation and introduces the theory of embodied cognition,which provides a new research perspective for the solution of the problem,expands the research field of the theory of embodied cognition,and enriches the relevant research of role-playing method in the teaching field of tourism specialty.At the same time,the research results also provide reference for the effective application of role-playing method in the other curriculum,and provide targeted suggestions for the effective application of role-playing method for the tourism teachers in secondary vocational schools. |
