A Study for the Curriculum and Subject Construction in Vocational High School

为弄清职业教育课程设置中存在的问题，对全国职业高中（农、技、商高中）进行了问卷调查。在这次调查中，得到了以下结果。在这些课程中，有许多特点，如引入符合学生个人意愿的课程体系，设置许多选修科目，学术科目学分增加的趋势，以及获得多项职业资格。然而，另一方面，许多问题被承认。这些问题包括：科目的扩大导致教育内容的碎片化、教师负担的增加、设施设备的不完善、职业教育目标难以实现、学生学习意愿的下降等。人们承认，一般科目（主要是学术科目）的学习是职业高中职业教育必不可少的，以便获得一些文化和学习一些特殊科目。但是，对于没有足够基础学术能力的职业高中学生来说，很难理解与普通高中相同的一般科目（主要是数学和英语）。因此，有必要重新审视职业高中普通学科的教学内容，特别是学科建设。
