Incorporating the Spirit of Craftsmanship into the Professional Development of Young Teachers in Higher Vocational Colleges: An Exploration of the Development Pathways

Abstract

Young teachers, as a crucial component of the teaching faculty in higher vocational colleges, still face numerous challenges in their professional development. Integrating the spirit of craftsmanship into the professional development planning and practice of young teachers in vocational colleges holds significant importance. Through research methods such as literature review and questionnaire surveys, this study proposes a concerted effort from three levels—top-level design by schools, promotion by teams and master teachers, and individual practice by teachers. The study aims to achieve the professional development of young teachers across four dimensions: value guidance, teaching, practice, and research.
