Abstract
A good schooling needs a good curriculum, a good curriculum needs effective implementation and effective implementation needs a high quality teaching team. The work-process-oriented curriculum is a challenge not only to the students but also to the teachers and administrators. The curriculum, the teaching environment and the teaching method and strategies are very different from the current curriculum. The current vocational teachers and teacher professional development does not match the new curriculum well. The vocational teacher’s professional development becomes a challenge to educational administrators. In this paper, I will use some theories to analyze some effective vocational teacher professional development methods and strategies in my school and explore some new vocational teacher professional development methods and strategies.
