Abstract

Deepening the integration of curriculum and workplace requirements is currently a key focus for enhancing the quality of higher vocational education. The rapid development of Generative Artificial Intelligence (GenAI) has introduced new approaches and tools into this field. Focusing on Chinese language teaching in vocational early childhood education programs, this study addresses critical issues in course-work integration, such as the inadequate vocational orientation of teaching materials and inaccurate job competency analyses. Based on the Outcome-Based Education (OBE) framework and supported by GenAI, a “dual-drive, triple-center” teaching model was constructed and implemented via a four-step strategy: 1) developing a precise Chinese language competency map for early childhood education roles; 2) restructuring modularized teaching content; 3) establishing a knowledge and competency transfer mechanism driven by professional scenarios; 4) creating a collaborative human-machine evaluation system based on the theory of multiple intelligences. Empirical results demonstrate that this model significantly improves students’ knowledge and skill acquisition, competency transferability to professional roles, and overall learning outcomes, thereby providing a replicable pathway for deepening course-work integration in higher vocational Chinese language education.
