Abstract

Against the background of in-depth reform of vocational education and the deep integration of artificial intelligence (AI) technology, the integrated teaching of "Foreign Language + Vocational Skills" has become a key path to cultivate compound technical and skilled talents. Taking Jingdezhen Art Vocational University as the research sample, this paper addresses the problems existing in vocational colleges, such as the separation of foreign language teaching from vocational skills training, the superficial application of AI technology, and the lack of integrated evaluation. By adopting mixed research methods, interdisciplinary research methods, and action research methods, it systematically constructs an AI-empowered integrated teaching system of "Foreign Language + Vocational Skills". The research shows that through the "Vocational Competence-Language Demand" two-dimensional matrix, the intelligent platform for virtual vocational scenarios, and the "human-machine collaboration" evaluation system, this system can effectively improve students’ cross-cultural vocational communication competence. It provides theoretical support and practical paradigms for the teaching reform of vocational colleges, and at the same time delivers compound talents for the international development of local cultural industries.
