Reconstruction of Vocational Education Scenarios through Digital Technology:Theoretical Basis,Representation Patterns and Action Paths
Digital transformation of vocational education is an organic component of the strategic action of digital transformation of education.Its basic idea is to use digital technology to reconstruct the main scenario of vocational education,and then reshape the new ecology of digital vocational education.The scenario theory originated from sociology and perfected by modern media and technology experts provides an appropriate theoretical analysis framework for the reconstruction of vocational education scenarios through digital technology.The technological scenarios are driven by big data,mobile devices,social media,sensors,and positioning systems,including three dimensions:space,practice,and information.From the perspective of digital transformation in the core business of vocational education,the reconstruction of voca-tional education scenarios through digital technology is mainly characterized by five forms,including multi-dimensional adaptation through precise docking and reshaping the relationship between industry and educa-tion,reconstructing the teaching space through multi-modal mixing of virtual and real fusion,optimizing resource supply through diversified adaptation by integrated innovation,innovating teaching models through multi-disciplinary applications of two-way integration and promoting the transformation of vocational edu-cation governance through data-driven multi-agent collaboration.To promote the pace of digital technolo-gy reconstruction of vocational education scenarios,educational entities related to vocational education should take the following actions.Firstly,the new infrastructure should be promoted to consolidate the new cornerstone of digital technology reconstruction in vocational education scenarios,and to expand the spatial boundaries of vocational education scenarios;secondly,by improving cross-border,capability,and data collaboration mechanisms,a new scenario should be created where digital technology can reconstruct voca-tional education scenarios;thirdly,by regulating three types of standards:technology,capability,and management,the digital technology is explored to reconstruct a new scenario of vocational education;final-ly,through multi-dimensional innovation driven by institutional,theoretical,and practical approaches,the new driving forces are cultivated for digital technology to reconstruct vocation.
