Vocational education undergraduate applied chemistry major is of great significance in cultivating applied talents, however, the traditional curriculum and teaching mode can no longer fully meet the needs of students and the requirements of the industry. In order to improve students’ practical ability, innovation ability and application ability to meet the industry demand and improve students’ employment competitiveness, the curriculum construction of VET undergraduate applied chemistry major needs to be explored and considered. Taking the curriculum construction of VET undergraduate applied chemistry major as an entry point, this paper analyzes the challenges and problems faced in this field and puts forward a series of strategies and reflections.

This paper thoroughly explores the path of teaching reform for the course “Food Nutrition and Hygiene” based on the “Teaching, Research, Competition, and Innovation” model. In the context of rapid technological development and evolving social demands, the traditional educational model no longer fully meets the learning needs in the field of food nutrition and hygiene. Therefore, a comprehensive education strategy, “Teaching, Research, Competition, and Innovation,” is proposed to enhance students’ learning experiences and capabilities through innovative teaching methods, participation in research activities, competitions, and innovation and entrepreneurship training. The paper elaborates on the implementation of each component and its impact on students’ theoretical learning and practical skills, emphasizing the importance of this model in promoting students’ overall quality improvement and laying the foundation for future career development.

This paper, adopting the theoretical perspective of the “Classroom Revolution” and focusing on the “Applied Advanced Mathematics” course, investigates the practices and research in curriculum teaching reform in dual higher vocational colleges. By introducing new teaching methodologies, optimizing teaching resources, and employing diverse evaluation methods to comprehensively assess students’ overall abilities, the aim is to enhance teaching effectiveness and quality. The research not only emphasizes changes within the classroom but also examines the broader impact of the “Classroom Revolution” on the overall educational reform in dual higher vocational colleges. Through analyzing practical outcomes, proposing reform strategies, and offering recommendations, this study aims to provide valuable experiences and references for curriculum teaching reform and research in dual higher vocational colleges, fostering academic exchange and promoting the improvement of teaching quality.

Critical reading is a crucial tool for enhancing the self-reading ability and critical thinking ability of high school students. In the context of high school English reading teaching, the cultivation of critical thinking skills is not only essential but also urgent. This is because critical thinking allows students to analyze, evaluate, and synthesize information presented in texts, enabling them to develop a deeper understanding of the content and its underlying meanings. In this paper, a reading lesson in Unit 17 of Book 6 of the Selective (2019 Edition) in High School English Teaching from Beijing Normal University is analyzed to understand the design intention and analyze how the teacher cultivates students’ critical thinking ability, strengthens the critical thinking training for students, improves students’ reading ability, and ultimately improves students’ critical thinking ability and reading ability, in terms of the various teaching links as well as the teaching activities.

This paper provides an in-depth discussion of the practical path of integrating teaching and training in aerobics in colleges and universities, firstly identifying and analysing the main problems faced in the current teaching of aerobics in colleges and universities, including the uneven allocation of teaching resources and insufficient facilities, the lagging behind of teachers’ strengths and teaching methodologies, as well as the lack of students’ participation and motivation. Through in-depth analyses of these problems, this paper reveals their potential impact on teaching effectiveness and student experience. In response to these issues, this paper proposes a series of innovative strategies to optimise the teaching and learning environment and enhance teaching and learning outcomes. These strategies include strengthening the allocation of resources and the construction of facilities to ensure the smooth running of teaching and learning activities; upgrading the strength of teachers and refreshing teaching methods to improve the quality of teaching and adapt to modern teaching needs; and stimulating student participation and enhancing motivation to enhance students’ motivation and self-development ability. Through the implementation of these strategies, colleges and universities can better cope with the challenges in aerobics teaching and improve the implementation effect of teaching and training integration.

The current educational curriculum reform has entered the “core quality” era. Compared with the key objectives and implementation requirements of cultivating core English literacy, there are still some gaps in English teaching concepts, teaching models, teaching evaluation and so on. The main manifestations are: the discipline education value is not outstanding, the teaching mode is rigid, the teaching evaluation is single and so on. Therefore, in order to highlight the “quality-oriented” subject teaching, the reform of English teaching should explore ways out from the perspectives of subject education value, curriculum teaching model and teaching evaluation system.
