Exploring the Teaching-Examination Separation Model for Theory-Practice Integrated Courses

The reform of teaching evaluation methods represents a critical component in the advancement of higher vocational education. This process encompasses a reassessment of educational objectives and actual outcomes, a comprehensive review and updating of evaluation criteria and methodologies, and an exploration of the relationship between instructional practices and teaching quality. The teaching-examination separation system implemented in higher education institutions is designed to decouple the teaching and assessment phases, enabling these components to operate independently while fostering mutual reinforcement. For integrated theory and practice courses in higher education institutions of learning, particularly in experimental and practical training sessions, improving the curriculum, developing an up-to-date question bank, adopting assessment methods that align process and objectives, and promoting the implementation of a teaching-exam separation model can more effectively evaluate students' practical skills and mastery of the course.
