ABSTRACT

The curriculum system serves as the core and foundation of vocational undergraduate education, and is also the logical starting point for promoting its steady development. This study analyzes the existing problems in vocational undergraduate curriculum systems, such as insufficient integration between industry and education, vague talent development standards, and unsatisfactory integration of industry and education. Taking early childhood education as an example, this research reconstructs the curriculum system for vocational undergraduate early childhood education majors using a "platform course + modular course" approach. Ultimately, the effective implementation of the curriculum system is guaranteed by strengthening the implementation system and building up the dual-qualified teaching team, practical training equipment, and practical training bases. This study will provide a theoretical basis for the development of a unique curriculum system for vocational undergraduate education and offer ideas for the construction of curriculum systems for other vocational undergraduate majors.
