ABSTRACT

At present, there is a lack of policy guidance and professional research on the general vocational integration curriculum system in China's comprehensive high schools. This study plays a promoting role in changing this phenomenon. The main purpose of this paper is to construct a general vocational integration curriculum of tourism management and service major in comprehensive high school by looking into the similarities and differences of the curriculum system of ordinary high school, comprehensive high school, and secondary vocational school. The relevant information of the main curriculum integration mode in China's general vocational integration and the research status of the development of comprehensive high schools were obtained through the network inquiry. The course materials of comprehensive high schools, ordinary high schools and secondary vocational schools in Weifang City, Shandong Province were collected through personal interviews with teachers and course designers of these schools. Document analysis was utilized for the curriculum system of tourism service and management major in a secondary vocational school. Based on the curriculum setting requirements of secondary vocational schools and the concept of general vocational integration curriculum setting, the course types, content, class hours and class hour ratio of tourism service and management major were analyzed and summarized. By comparing the three curricula according to concept, content, difficulty and arrangement, the similarities and differences were obtained.
