In "to Oak", Ting believes that love by prayer and begging cannot be equal, and the minimum condition for an oak tree to be equal is to be a kapok, and if you are a grass, then no matter how humble the oak tree is, it is not equal. Secondary vocational schools to be the same type of education as ordinary high school, like Ting, "I must be a kapok near you, as the image of the tree and you stand together."
Whether it is a top-level design or a theoretical study, it is recognized that secondary vocational education is a kind of education different from that of ordinary high school, rather than "inferior" education under ordinary high school education. But the reality seems to be contrary to the original intention of the system design and the results of theoretical research, most of the secondary vocational schools are the bottom of the admission batch, the admission of course is also the lowest, junior high school or secondary school "shunt" has become a reality version of the "layering."
For such a drop, the vocational education people often seek the reason from outside the vet. Criticism of the traditional culture of "learning and excellence" dissatisfaction with the lack of government funds, the recruitment of civil servants or state-owned enterprises to recruit qualifications for the threshold of complaints, the implementation of the employment system is not strict criticism of the teacher's employment mechanism of inflexible helplessness, the vocational school dilemma due to the general high school huddled, and so on. Admittedly, these factors are restricting the development of vocational education to a certain extent, but the conclusion may be biased or unconvincing as a result of the lack of the courage and wisdom of introspection.
Vocational education is the most closely related to economic and social development, and vocational education undertakes the important task of cultivating technical skills and talents.
However, at present, there is a seemingly paradox but actually exist phenomenon, on the one hand, enterprise recruitment difficult, on the one hand vocational school graduates employment difficult. Why? Dilemma "The most fundamental reason is that the existing vocational education system can not effectively docking market demand, the training of students can not meet the demand for employment.
Ask some well-known vocational education hot words, such as school-enterprise cooperation, the integration of production and teaching, the work of alternating, modern apprenticeship system, as if every vocational school has done very well, in fact, most of the time the majority of schools are a typical alternative, or some schools simply to the goal as a reality. If our professional settings really and industry demand docking, really achieve the course content and professional standards docking, teaching process and production process docking, Diploma and Professional Qualification certificate docking, vocational education and lifelong educational docking, then "dilemma" how can universal and long-term exist?
Nowadays, vocational education is no longer "beheading education", the "ceiling" of vocational school students ' growth is being broken, and the "overpass", which is a diversified choice for students, is being gradually built up. However, some secondary vocational schools regard the path of further education as a way to cater to the advantages and characteristics of the parents, and the alienation of the vocational school behavior into the orientation of further studies. Although the part of the students who aim at the study also learn some professional skills, but that is also the orientation of the study, because what to test what to learn, but not the content of the test will not dabble. The tendency of this kind of heavy education and light occupation has actually turned the secondary vocational school into a "second high school", and the final result may be "eliminating" vocational education rather than becoming stronger.
The learner's intelligence is different, the learner's interest is different, therefore, from the perspective of education supply should be the same level of learners to provide diversified educational choices. Secondary vocational schools, as well as ordinary high schools to aim for further studies, is undoubtedly the shorter than the person's length.
The vocational education takes the service development as the objective, promotes the employment as the guidance.
Service development, including at least two levels of content, one is the economic and social development of talent specifications and quality requirements, the second is the individual lifelong development of the demand for education supply, and professional social needs and educational personality needs are organically integrated, the kind of overemphasis on social needs and neglect of individual feelings, or excessive emphasis on individual feelings and neglect of social needs is wishful thinking, of course, will not be long. For those students who are unwilling or not suitable for further studies, the school is in contravention of the rules of education and the principle of individualized teaching.
The promotion of employment, including two levels of content, one is to make the unemployed have the industry, that is, vocational school graduates have to settle down occupation and post, the second is to enable the industry to work, that is, on the basis of employment to realize the value of life and the overall promotion of happiness. There is industry is the foundation, the pleasure is the purpose, although the pay is related to the salary, but not entirely depend on the salary, depends largely on the interests of people, interests and perseverance of the spirit.
The state has implemented a system of tuition free of charge and set up a national scholarship, and built up the overpass in the middle and high vocational and the middle. In other words, students who are financially disadvantaged will not be able to afford vocational schools because of poverty, and students in vocational schools would like to have a path to pursue their careers. It should be said that secondary vocational schools should have a strong appeal, but the secondary vocational school enrollment is difficult, ordinary high school a difficult to seek a phenomenon is very common. A cruel reality is that a good external environment does not enhance the attractiveness of vocational education, nor does it significantly enhance the status of vocational education.
External cause is the condition of change, and internal cause is the basis of change. In order to enhance the attractiveness of secondary vocational schools, we must follow the path of connotation development.
Doli from, analyze some good secondary vocational schools, improve the quality is only. Of course, the quality of secondary vocational schools is based on employment-oriented, is based on the depth of the integration of school and Enterprise, just as the quality of ordinary high school can not narrow into the entrance examination, secondary vocational school quality can not narrow into a skill contest or other single indicators.
The kind of "ordinary high school has the college entrance examination, vocational education has a big contest" of the formulation, seems to seize the main contradiction or contradictions of the major aspects, is actually a utilitarian thought in the trouble. Both secondary vocational schools and ordinary high schools should serve the development of students, both at present and in the long term. Junior high school graduates choose secondary vocational schools or choose ordinary High school, like the hillside when the choice of different, they enjoy the climb in different scenery along the way, eventually they will reach their ideal height.
1977 Ting published The famous love poem "To the Oak tree". Ting believes that the love of prayer and begging cannot be equal, and the minimum condition for an oak tree to be equal is to be a kapok, and if you are a grass, then no matter how humble the oak tree is, it is not equal. Secondary vocational schools to be the same type of education as ordinary high school, like Ting, "I must be a kapok near you, as the image of the tree and you stand together."
Oak has the oak's stalwart, Kapok has the tall and straight kapok. Kapok to grow tall and straight, must be rooted deep.
In order to be a type of education, secondary vocational schools must be supported by quality.
