"Food Physical and Chemical Inspection Technology" as a core course in the Food Quality and Safety major faces three major challenges: limited access to large instrument operation, poor demonstration effects in experiments, and difficulties in evaluating ideological and political education. To address these issues, the teaching team has developed a "trinity" digital transformation solution. Through digital transformation, reforms have been implemented in three aspects: teaching resources, teaching environment, and teaching evaluation: (1) Virtual simulation software for large instruments has been developed to enhance students' practical training effectiveness; (2) A smart laboratory has been constructed to enable screen projection and live demonstrations of operation interfaces, optimizing the experimental teaching experience; (3) An evaluation mini-program for ideological and political education has been designed to quantify students' learning outcomes and achieve diversified evaluation. The digital transformation of the course has yielded significant results: (1) The quality of talent cultivation has markedly improved, with students consistently achieving excellence in national vocational skills competitions; (2) Teachers' teaching abilities have continuously strengthened, resulting in awards in teaching competency competitions; (3) The international influence has expanded, as the team completed the development of Tanzania's National Occupational Standard "Food Inspection Technician NTA-6" based on the course content. This study, aimed at precisely addressing teaching challenges, innovates the deep integration of digital technology and teaching, providing a replicable practical path for course reform in vocational colleges and contributing to high-quality educational development.
