A Survey on the Current Situation of Professional Literacy and Craftsmanship Spirit in Mathematics Classes of Secondary Vocational School Students —— A Case Study of Computer Major

Abstract

This study aims to systematically investigate the current situation of professional literacy and craftsmanship spirit displayed by secondary vocational school students majoring in computer science in mathematics classes. A questionnaire titled "Questionnaire on the Current Situation of Professional Literacy and Craftsmanship Spirit of Secondary Vocational School Students in Mathematics Classes" was used to survey 285 computer major students from a secondary vocational school, and in-depth analysis was conducted combined with interviews. The results show that: (1) Secondary vocational school students majoring in computer science performed relatively best in the dimension of "strictness and standardization" (M=3.82), but relatively weak in the dimensions of "striving for excellence" (M=3.21) and "exploration and innovation" (M=2.97); (2) Senior students were significantly better than junior students in the dimensions of "logical thinking" and "systematic thinking" (p<0.01); (3) Students generally recognized the importance of professional literacy (M=4.15), but thought that the current mathematics teaching was not closely combined with it (M=2.89).
