This study establishes a deep integration system between science education programs and STEM Teaching Skills Innovation Competitions through the "promoting teaching through competition, advancing learning through competition, and fostering innovation through competition" framework. The three-tier competition structure (foundation-core-transformation) and dual-track mechanism (technical implementation/pedagogical transformation) incorporate engineering practice capabilities and teaching conversion competencies into evaluation standards. The resulting cultivation pathway-"contextualized task-driven learning, scaffolded technical support, and pedagogical adaptation"-effectively resolves the disconnection between technical practice and teaching application among pre-service teachers.
