Abstract
The new energy vehicle industry is growing quickly, bringing new opportunities and challenges to automotive maintenance professional education. This paper checks vocational schools’ current new energy vehicle maintenance curriculum to see if the curriculum fits real maintenance work and industry needs. Industry and education are not linked well right now. This project takes “modular maintenance” as a starting point and rebuilds the traditional curricula. A vehicle is split into five main parts. It gets rid of gaps between different subjects and rearranges teaching content. A content system consisting of “modules-projects-tasks” is built and corresponding multimedia materials are added as a supplement. Teaching activities are designed, focusing on the “teach, learn, do, evaluate” way of learning. A diverse assessment method based on professional abilities is used. The results show that this approach is effective in developing students’ systematic thinking, boosting their overall maintenance skills, cultivating their professional qualities, and helping vocational education combine with real social needs.
