Research On The Application Of Virtual Simulation Technology In The Teaching Of "Mechanical Foundation" Course In Secondary Vocational Schools

With the development of social division of labor and education integration,secondary vocational education has become an important bridge to realize the effective docking of schools and enterprises,shouldering the responsibility of cultivating high-quality technical and skilled personnel.The continuous advancement of education informatization in today’s society makes the combination of information technology and teaching mode become a new trend.Virtual simulation technology,as an emerging information means,is widely used in the field of education because of its immersion,interaction,virtuality and verisimilitude,which can effectively solve the disadvantages of high risk and high cost of traditional teaching mode and improve the teaching effect.It points out a new direction for the teaching reform of mechanical specialty in secondary vocational schools.As a basic core course for mechanical majors in secondary vocational schools,"Mechanical Foundation" requires students to have basic theoretical knowledge and practice the ability to use knowledge to solve practical problems in the course.In this paper,virtual simulation technology is applied to the teaching of "Mechanical Foundation" in secondary vocational schools,and the research is carried out from four aspects: theoretical analysis,investigation,teaching design and teaching practice.(1)From the perspective of the development of vocational education,the demand for manufacturing talents and the current situation of course teaching,the literature related to virtual simulation technology was summarized to clarify the connotation,advantages and theoretical basis of virtual simulation teaching;(2)According to the literature research and theoretical basis,the investigation method is used to investigate the students and teachers of secondary vocational schools,identify the current teaching status and main problems of "Mechanical Foundation" in secondary vocational schools,and analyze the necessity and feasibility of applying virtual simulation technology to the course of "Mechanical Foundation".(3)In view of the current problems,the elements of teaching design are analyzed from five aspects: learners,teaching objectives,curriculum content,teaching methods and teaching evaluation.At the same time,based on constructivism theory,life education theory and embodied cognition theory,virtual simulation teaching software is selected,teaching practice cases are determined and teaching implementation process is designed.(4)Select actual teaching cases to make simulation teaching resources,carried out teaching experiments from the three stages of pre-class,middle and post-class,and compared students’ learning interests,learning attitudes and learning effects through questionnaires and performance data,so as to verify the effectiveness of virtual simulation technology applied in the teaching of "Mechanical Foundation" in secondary vocational schools.In this study,virtual simulation technology is integrated into the course teaching,which is beneficial to stimulate students’ interest in learning,improves the teaching effect,the teaching quality,and provides new ideas and new methods for the teaching reform and personnel training of mechanical major courses in secondary vocational schools.
