  3. Introduction • Learning at the workplace is a crucial factor to enhance students’ occupational competency and make them success. Blending work-based practice and school-oriented learning has been justified as an effective learning way in vocational education. • Almost all kinds of Chinese TVET colleges are keen to import authentic work into their classroom. But what are effective, and how to explain these blended learning activates have incurred huge debates in China.

  4. Research question • How Chinese vocational colleges integrate authentic work into teaching and learning in cooperating with enterprise? • In what extent can teaching and learning activities in vocational colleges approach authentic work?

  5. Methodology • Meta-analysis of research and documents • Hermeneutics and discourse analysis of research and documents • More than hundreds of publications in this topic within recent ten years • Semi-structured and in-depth interviews and case study • Qualitative semi-structure interview and case study methods • 8 vocational colleges as cases • 9 managers and academic-related staff were interviewed

  6. Research Findings • 1. Learning Place Dimension

  7. In some rural areas, researcher finds that students spend most time in theory classroom and little time in skills training rooms, and they have no chance to get in touch with authentic work. • But in some developed area, such as Guangdong Industrial Training Center, student are arranged to practice their skill in Single-Function and Multi-FunctionTraining Room.

  8. The occupational activities are divided into different working tasks, student are arranged to practice their skill in single or multi-function training room. And each skill can be practiced in certain training room. Single-Function Training Room Multi-Function Training Building from Guangdong Industrial Training Center from Nanjing Vocational College
