Research on the Teaching Reform of Pre-Primary Education Specialty Practice Course Under the Demand Orientation

With the further deepening of preschool education reform in China, high-quality preschool teachers have become highly sought-after in the job market, thereby creating more job opportunities for students studying preschool education. Colleges and universities should align their curriculum with the demands of the industry by optimizing the teaching practice system for preschool education courses, establishing off-campus training bases, and regularly organizing student placements in kindergartens. They should also prioritize employment-oriented approaches by collaborating with kindergartens to develop practical courses tailored to preschool education, thereby enhancing the curriculum system. To enrich the teaching staff, a “double tutor” teacher team should be established, integrating kindergarten teachers as part-time instructors to create a professional and diversified teaching faculty. Additionally, a teaching evaluation system focusing on post-competence should be implemented to foster the holistic development of students, consequently enhancing the quality of preschool education personnel training.
