w88 casino News Network (Reporters Hong Yuman, Wang Zheng, Photography Miao Yiping)2021 is the 100th anniversary of the founding of the Party,The w88 casino carries out a series of party history study and education activities, organizing teachers and students to learn and understand the history of the party, and learn and understand the century-old development history and glorious achievements of the Communist Party of China. Wang Fangzhou, a junior student in the w88 casino of International Economics and w88 of w88 casino, and his team actively responded to the w88 casino’s party history publicity activities and developed and designed a product called with innovative thinking.The party history education board game "Red Ship Voyage" aims to contribute new methods and new ideas to the study and education of party history, learn while playing, learn through play, and make party historyLearning and education are deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.
“2021 is the 100th anniversary of the founding of the Communist Party of China, XiGeneral Secretary Xi Jinping said:‘The history of the party is the most vivid and convincing textbook.’According to the party history data researched by our team members, sinceFrom the founding of the Communist Party of China in Jiaxing Red Boat in 1921 to the founding ceremony of Beijing in 1949,The development route of the Communist Party of China forms a quasi-geometric circle on the map of China. We were inspired by this and independently developed and designed a set of immersive board games with the theme of red party history.‘Study the Four Histories’Under the general theme, several popular board games currently on the market have been integrated to form a unique set of game mechanisms, which is what everyone sees now‘Red Ship Voyage’。"General Manager Wang FangzhouSaid so.
Because they are both board game enthusiasts and it coincides with the 100th anniversary of the founding of the Party, Wang Fangzhou and his team were inspired.“Why not design a board game about party history education?”After preliminary research, they found that there is a market gap in the current tabletop game market for tabletop games with the theme of party history education. Some products are only available in certain grassroots party and league branches, and the production of the products is relatively rough, which cannot attract the attention of young people and lacks in the propaganda of party history. Therefore, using board games, a novel form that is more in line with the preferences of current students and young people, to empower party history learning and education has become the core idea of Wang Fangzhou’s team’s game development.
The reporter was fortunate enough to observe the entire process of the game, and immersed himself in the game. He tried it out personally, gained a deeper understanding of this board game, and also discovered several highlights of this game.
The game adopts a thinking model similar to Ludo and Monopoly, but it is also full of students’ original ingenuity.
First of all, the board game is supported by two maps, one is the development road map of our party, and the other is the closed advance road map of the chess pieces. The number of squares the chess pieces advance is determined by rolling dice, but the final winner must be determined based on the order of the party's development history chart. By participating in the game, players can have a clearer understanding of the development process of the Communist Party of China, strengthen the memory development sequence during the game, and learn party history knowledge subtly.
Secondly, the designer was ingenious and designed an additional card link. After referring to party history materials, Wang Fangzhou's team designed a number of question and answer cards about party history, integrating party history knowledge into the game and making the learning of party history knowledge interesting by asking each other questions.
In addition, the game inherits the red spirit in some name designs, which are full of the characteristics of the times.The "Red Ship Voyage" is taken from the historical date of the birth of the Communist Party of China on the red ship in Nanhu, Jiaxing, Zhejiang in 1921, which is full of contemporary significance. "Zhazi Cave", "Supply Station" and other placesThe design of the name has a strong sense of substitution and is eye-catching.
In the just-concluded Jingwei Cup competition, Wang Fangzhou’s team won the third prize and received relevant funds. Regarding the future development of this board game, Wang Fangzhou and his team expressed their hope that the party history game can be promoted in universities in Beijing as soon as possible, so that more young students can participate in the game process and play the role of the game in promoting party history. They said that if it is successfully promoted in Beijing, they also hope to promote it nationwide in the future.
“Maybe many people talk about board gamesIt feels like this is a game played by young people. Why should old people play board games? But party history is a very serious matter, so many people can’t imagine how party history is related to board games‘Symbiosis’. But I think when two completely unrelated things are combined, different sparks will collide, so I think this is a very new attempt. We can show the positive side of board games to everyone. Board games are not only games for young people, but people of all ages can participate. The study of party history is not only in books and classrooms. If we turn it into a game, it will achieve the effect of subtle and entertaining education, and the great party-building spirit will be more easily accepted by everyone." Wang Fangzhou said.
On the occasion of the 100th anniversary of the founding of the Party, the forms of party history learning can be rich and colorful. We need more innovative ideas like the party history learning and education board game developed by Wang Fangzhou’s team to inject a steady stream of fresh vitality into party history learning, so that party history can be removed from textbooks and participate in the learning life of the majority of young people!
