Abstract
In the era of artificial intelligence, virtual simulation technology has injected vitality into the reform of higher vocational education. It is conducive to innovating practical teaching models, improving students’ practical abilities, enabling real-time monitoring of the teaching process, and carrying out precise teaching, thereby enhancing teaching quality. This paper analyzes the importance of applying virtual simulation technology in higher vocational education and teaching, examines the current status of its application, and proposes approaches to promote high-quality development of higher vocational education, such as building virtual simulation training bases through school-enterprise cooperation, compiling virtual simulation teaching cases, simulating typical work scenarios, conducting good virtual simulation data analysis, and improving skill evaluation and feedback mechanisms.
