This adaptability of vocational education is shown in the following aspects: Vocational education is the adaptability of vocational education system. The state develops vocational education, establishes and perfects a vocational education system that meets the needs of socialist market economy and social progress, including the direction, level, teaching content, vocational training institutions and management of vocational education, and has always been in an active position to meet the needs of social and economic development. The second is the adaptation of vocational education objects. Educated people should not only have a narrow professional nature or be limited to mastering one skill, because rapid change is the characteristic of our times. Therefore, the main purpose of future vocational education must be to make young people have strong adaptability. The third is the adaptation of vocational education mode. In order to meet the needs of the market, vocational education should change from the traditional closed school-oriented mode to the diversified mixed school-running mode of enterprises, institutions, individual citizens and schools. In view of the above statement, some people question that basic education and higher education are also adaptable. This adaptability of basic education and higher education is still an integral part of vocational enlightenment education (basic education) and vocational preparatory education (higher education), and it is also the adaptability of vocational education.

intermediary

The intermediary nature of vocational education refers to the special position of vocational education between human development and social development, and between education and occupation. In other words, vocational education promotes people's personality development and social progress, which is not "universal" or "special object", but directly corresponds to social needs and personal survival. It promotes the combination of scientific spirit and humanistic spirit, promotes the improvement of personality quality needed by social development, is an intermediary process to make people's personality more adapt to social development, perfection and renewal, and is the most basic bridge. Both basic education and higher education shoulder the intermediary responsibility of cultivating "natural person" into "social person", but an important symbol of social person is professionalism.

individual

The foothold of vocational education can only be "individual existence" in reality. The main body engaged in vocational education and the main body receiving vocational education are people in real life. Their real life needs and abilities determine the educational purpose, content, method, form and level of vocational education. Only those who are based on real life can objectively analyze the external phenomena and internal laws of vocational education. It is unscientific to leave its basic logical starting point, that is, people in real life, whether it is ideal or realistic vocational education.

historical

Vocational education is a contradictory unity of history and transcendence. Historicity is the internal connection of vocational education, which is always pulled and restricted by certain historical premise, so vocational education cannot exist and develop in a "vacuum". Vocational education has been restricted. Acknowledging its historicity means its "finiteness" and "non-supremacy", but this does not mean that it has lost its transcendence. On the contrary, it is its historicity and the resulting limitation and non-supremacy that provide people with real freedom and possibility to develop vocational education. It can be said that its historicity provides realistic possibilities for its infinite openness, and vocational education is constantly in a limited state.

This negative unity of finiteness and infinity, non-supremacy and supremacy, and historicity and transcendence just constitutes the dialectics of vocational education. Description: First, the historical nature of vocational education means that vocational education is not the product of absolute free will and cannot be divorced from the real society. If we deny the historicity of vocational education, it is equivalent to raising vocational education to the status of "God" and "Savior", and the result can only be the cover-up and abstraction of vocational education.

Secondly, the historicity of social development restricts the historicity of vocational education, and the level and stage of social development restricts the development speed, scale and degree of vocational education. Thirdly, the historical and limited nature of vocational education does not mean people's fate and inaction. On the contrary, realizing this realistic stipulation of vocational education is the premise and foundation for people to constantly surpass and create new vocational education. "Transcendence" is also one of the essential provisions of vocational education, which means that vocational education is "deciding what kind of person we will become, that is, focusing on tomorrow". Finally, it is the negative unity of historicity and transcendence of vocational education that constitutes the reality and ideal of vocational education. Reality points to the present and ideal points to the future. Reality and ideal are interdependent, mutual purpose, mutual connection and mutual progress. Reality is driven by ideals and development goals. Without ideals, vocational education will be a backwater. Ideal must be based on reality, and ideal vocational education needs people's creative activities based on reality, so as to obtain real "realistic" character.

feasibility

Vocational education is a practice under the guidance of rationality, which can be divided into practical rationality and poetic rationality. Practical rationality of vocational education pays attention to educational methods, techniques and experiences, and pays attention to the benefits of vocational education (including economic benefits and social benefits, etc.). ), pay attention to the actual existence of individual students, base themselves on and return to real life. The poetic rationality of vocational education emphasizes "people-oriented" and "ultimate concern". Specifically, it is the ultimate idea of vocational education to pay attention to whether people's "potential" is fully exerted, whether people's personality is fully publicized and whether people's subjective personality is freely developed. The practical rationality of vocational education is not only for survival and profit, but also the result of human survival game for thousands of years, which is the historical choice of vocational education development game. The poetic rationality of vocational education is not simply a mirage, but an ideal value pursuit with super-utility, which plays a guiding and restricting role in practical rationality. In a word, the practical rationality and poetic rationality of vocational education are different, complementary, interactive and restrictive.
