(Special reporter Liu Hongyuan Photography Yujun)
Ideological and political theory course is undoubtedly one of the most important courses in colleges and universities, because it is related to how to cultivate qualified builders and reliable successors of the socialist cause. Ideological and political theory courses are undoubtedly one of the most difficult courses to teach in colleges and universities. Because of its ideological characteristics, college students have a certain rejection of this course.2015year, according to the Ministry of Ideological and Political Affairs95The learning characteristics of post-college students, combined with the characteristics of the era of self-media, will continue to promote the teaching reform of ideological and political courses, strive to build a down-to-earth and distinctive three-dimensional teaching model of ideological and political courses, and further enhance the attractiveness and effectiveness of ideological and political courses.
“A Centennial Dream”: Clarifying the Main Line of Ideological and Political Teaching
At the undergraduate teaching stage, ideological and political courses include five required courses: "Ideological and Moral Cultivation and Legal Foundations", "Outline of Modern and Contemporary Chinese History", "Introduction to Mao Zedong Thought and the Theoretical System of Socialism with Chinese Characteristics", "Introduction to the Basic Principles of Marxism" and "Situation and Policy". How to organically integrate the teaching content of the five ideological and political courses and prevent duplication and fragmentation of teaching content has been one of the key and difficult issues in the reform of ideological and political courses over the years.

“Self-determination”: establishing the dominant position of students in teaching
College students are undoubtedly the main body of classroom teaching. However, how to truly establish the dominant position of college students in teaching has been a difficult problem faced by teachers for many years. College students are different from middle w88 casino students. Simple theoretical lectures are difficult to arouse the interest of college students, and even harder to impress college students. This is especially true for ideological and political courses.
21This century has entered the so-called era of self-media. Based on this, the teaching team of the "Ideological and Moral Cultivation and Legal Basis" course95Post-college students are familiar with information technology and the characteristics of expressing their individuality, changing the one-way theoretical indoctrination in the past. Instead, college students are the main body, and through self-observation, self-thinking, and self-expression, the effect of moisturizing things silently is achieved. from2013Starting from 2019, the “Basic Course” carried out the activity “I act, I think, I gain—Chinese Dream themed micro-movie shooting”,201414866_15028201515402_15447
The "Introduction to the Basic Principles of Marxism" course is also based on95Characteristics of post-college students, carry out simulated decision-making practical teaching with the application of basic principles of Marxism as the central content. How to enable college students to apply Marxist viewpoints of connection, development and contradiction to the analysis of real problems, and how to enable college students to adhere to the principle of integrating theory with practice and analyzing specific problems, cannot be solved by simple theoretical explanations. To this end, the "Principles" teaching group conducted practical teaching exploration in the form of the "Simulated Public Welfare Fund Poverty Alleviation Competition". That is, on the basis of a given poverty alleviation amount of public welfare funds, students are required to work in practice groups to select national-level poverty-stricken counties as simulated poverty alleviation targets, and propose public welfare poverty alleviation projects in line with the scientific concept of development based on available local resources. The practice group finally submitted a poverty alleviation plan, and conducted a multimedia presentation and defense in the classroom, with a jury composed of teachers and students making scores.201517073_17133+"Carry out practical teaching in the form of a simulated public welfare poverty alleviation competition. Judging from the students' presentations and submitted practical experiences, students fully affirmed this novel practical teaching form and thought it was very down-to-earth and rewarding.
“Each has its own characteristics”: Encourage diverse teaching reforms
Although the reform of ideological and political courses emphasizes overall planning and overall advancement, the reform process does not seek uniformity or simple unity. Instead, it combines the teaching content and student characteristics, each with its own focus and characteristics. From the cultivation of ideals and beliefs to the discussion of practical problems; from perceptual and intuitive understanding to rational abstract thinking; from the training of thinking methods to simulation project decision-making, it progresses step by step and continues to deepen.
For example, the "Outline of Modern Chinese History" course features "removing the false and retaining the true" and flipped classroom. The "Outline" course highlights the criticism of historical nihilism. Based on the teaching theme of "Reflecting on Reality from History", it naturally2014The main line teaching of “removing the false and preserving the true” will be implemented. The so-called main line teaching of "removing the false and retaining the true" is to guide students to investigate and research, identify biases and fallacies in understanding, and improve their understanding of the current historical nihilism perspective through three sections: classroom discussion, scene reenactment, and critical essay writing. Among them, the "Flipped Classroom Based on Network Platform for Chinese Modern and Contemporary History Outline Course" that Professor Liu Jianping is leading the research was selected into the Ministry of Education's ideological and political course teaching reform merit-based promotion and cultivation project.
For example, the course "Introduction to Mao Zedong Thought and Theoretical System of Socialism with Chinese Characteristics" features special seminars and social surveys. The "Introduction" course highlights the guidance of "Three Confidences" and focuses on special teaching that combines classroom lectures with field research on social issues.2015Year Organization "Mao Zedong in the People's Mind" and other themed research activities. Through these activities, students' enthusiasm for participation has been better mobilized and students' theoretical thinking ability has been strengthened.
Another example is the "Chinese Marxism and Contemporary" course featuring the "Doctoral Forum". Ideological and political courses for doctoral students highlight theoretical discussions, since201322665_22755
“Initially taking shape”: Constructing a three-dimensional teaching model for ideological and political courses
In the teaching reform of ideological and political courses, the Ideological and Political Department conscientiously implements the concepts of ideological guidance, subject interaction, integration of knowledge and action, and multi-dimensional training. In terms of teaching content, it fully implements the theme teaching of "A Hundred Years of Dream Pursuing", comprehensively carries out speculative teaching of "removing falsehoods and retaining true", and actively We will vigorously explore the integrated teaching of "cultural cultivation"; in terms of teaching methods, we will continue to optimize the three-dimensional, modern and personalized classroom teaching model, further improve the activity and participation of teaching subjects, continue to enhance the practical teaching grounding and give a real sense, and strive to realize the mediaization and situationalization of teaching methods. By focusing on the key points and key links in teaching and organically integrating theory and practice, a three-dimensional teaching model such as special lectures and seminars, social practice teaching, scenario simulation teaching, and multimedia network platform teaching has been initially established, basically forming a model that conforms to the characteristics and characteristics of each ideological and political course95Post-student characteristics realize the combination of in-class and out-of-class, books and reality, brain use and hands-on, society and oneself, so that ideological and political courses show the color of theory plus practice, learning plus creation, text plus images, knowledge plus ability, and begin to receive the true "brain-into-heart" teaching effect.
Through teaching reform, we will guide college students to strengthen their confidence in the path, theory, and system of socialism with Chinese characteristics, promote socialist core values, establish a high degree of cultural consciousness and cultural self-confidence, enhance their sense of social responsibility, innovative spirit, and practical ability, and strive to train college students to become qualified builders and reliable successors to the cause of socialism.
