Students in higher vocational education are always encountering various challenges. The way they attempt to conquer these challenges influences their success in achieving their academic goals. With the development of the times, the needs of students in China's vocational colleges to cope with challenges are also changing. In order to understand the changing needs of these students to cope with the challenges, based on Trautwein and Bosse's academic counseling demand model and Knowles's demand theory, this study adopted semi-structured interviews, key event collection methods, and purposive sampling to select 12 students of different grades majoring in art and design in a higher vocational college in Guangzhou, China. With reference to related studies on the key academic needs of students, interview outlines were designed, interviews were conducted, and coding and analysis were performed. Students' experiences were categorized according to learning-related, individual, organization, and social constructs. The study results showed that the academic counseling needs of China's higher vocational art and design students mainly focused on the learning-related construct, such as understanding the courses and course systems they were majoring in, setting and realizing academic goals, coping with setbacks, pressure and other students' comprehensive evaluation. This was followed by dealing with personal and financial issues, building social circles and peer relationships, and so on. Therefore, for students to overcome challenges and achieve academic goals, it is helpful to strengthen the collaboration between professional teachers and counselors, the influence of peers, the focus on academic consulting work related to learning, and to explore and carry out guidance on students' individual needs in higher vocational colleges.
高等职业教育的学生总是面临着各种各样的挑战。他们试图克服这些挑战的方式会影响他们实现学业目标的成功率。随着时代的发展，中国高职院校学生应对挑战的需求也在发生变化。为了了解这些学生应对挑战的需求变化，本研究基于特劳特温与博斯的学业辅导需求模型以及诺尔斯的需求理论，采用半结构化访谈、关键事件收集法和目的抽样法，选取了中国广州一所高职院校12名不同年级的艺术设计专业学生。参考有关学生关键学业需求的相关研究，设计访谈提纲，进行访谈，并进行编码和分析。学生的经历按照与学习相关、个人、组织和社会结构进行分类。研究结果表明，中国高等职业艺术设计专业学生的学业辅导需求主要集中在与学习相关的结构方面，比如了解所学课程和课程体系、设定并实现学业目标、应对挫折、压力以及其他同学的综合评价等。其次是处理个人和经济问题、建立社交圈子和同伴关系等。因此，为帮助学生克服挑战并实现学业目标，加强专业教师与辅导员之间的协作、同伴的影响、关注与学习相关的学业咨询工作以及探索并开展高职院校学生个人需求方面的指导是有帮助的。
