Abstract

The idea of “Generative Doctrine” is an important component of Tao Xingzhi's vocational education theory. Vocational education is aimed at cultivating talents with vocational skills and practical abilities under the guidance of profit-oriented education, so as to meet the needs of life and serve the social and economic development. With the development of society, China's five-year higher vocational education has also achieved significant progress, which is reflected in the continuous expansion of its scale and the continuous improvement of its quality. However, there are also many problems existing. By re-recognizing and re-studying Tao Xingzhi's profit-oriented vocational education theory, further exploring curriculum reform will have extremely important guiding significance for the development of five-year higher vocational education.
