Abstract
This paper delves into the application of immersive teaching in career development and employment guidance for environmental design majors. With the rapid development of the environmental design industry, the demand for high-quality professionals is increasing. Traditional career development and employment guidance methods often fail to meet the needs of students in this dynamic field. Immersive teaching, by creating realistic and engaging learning scenarios, can enhance students' understanding of the industry, improve their practical skills, and better prepare them for future employment. Through a comprehensive analysis of relevant theories and practical cases, this paper explores the key elements of immersive teaching in this context, including the design of immersive scenarios, the integration of practical projects, and the cultivation of students' soft skills. It also discusses the challenges and opportunities brought about by the application of immersive teaching and provides suggestions for its effective implementation. The results show that immersive teaching can significantly improve students' career awareness, professional abilities, and employment competitiveness in the field of environmental design. This paper hopes to provide theoretical and practical references for educators and practitioners in the field of environmental design education.
