Immersive experience

"Expand the extension and depth of the classroom, and fully mobilize the vision, hearing and thinking of officers and soldiers"

  "I am a descendant of Huaxia, a descendant of Yanhuang, a soldier of the'hard-boned six company', we will shoulder the trust of the people, and the 16 of us must plunge straight into the enemy's line like 16 sharp knives..."

  This is a recording of a pre-war mobilization speech by Lin Zuwu, the captain of the Xiaojianshan Combat Commando and the platoon leader of the "Tough Sixth Company" in a front-line battle.

Lin Zuwu's unique dialect accent is very clear, and the noise caused by the aging of the tape is also very old.

None of this can conceal the firm belief in fighting and daring to win in the recording.

  This soundtrack recorded nearly 40 years ago was played on the scene of the “Dialogues Through Time and Space · Talking about the Heroic Spirit of the New and Old Heroes” organized by the Army of the Southern Theater Command. Everyone was instantly pulled back to the fierce battle. .

  "In that battle, the commando used 5 people to sacrifice and 11 comrades wounded to open the road to Xiaojianshan victory with flesh and blood. Lin Zuwu persisted in the fight despite being seriously injured, until the grenade was fired. , Die with the enemy..." As a witness to that battle, Qi Youwei, the 27th instructor of the "Tough Sixth Company", revealed more historical details.

At the same time, precious historical materials such as the last group photo of the "Sixteen Warriors" in Xiaojianshan's lifetime and the record of battle images from that year were slowly switched on the big screen.

  All these acousto-optic elements bring unprecedented immersive experience to the officers and soldiers on the scene.

  "To win nothing, this is the bloody nature of the Chinese soldiers." In the audience, the Southern Theater Army "Bayonet Seeing the Red Company" Sergeant and Wen Sheng could not help clenching their fists after hearing the story of Lin Zuwu.

He said: "When the cold war history records written on the wall and written in books become more three-dimensional and sensible, we not only remember them, but walk into history and approach the heroes, and feel more intense. The shock."

  This touching and immersive experience is exactly the effect that the Army Political Work Department of the Southern Theater Command is pursuing in its innovative exploration of ideological and political education.

  "In the past, the single-form education model was not contagious, and we must find a way to break through." The leader of the Army Political Work Department of the Southern Theater Command told reporters that after the military ideological and political education work conference was held last year, in order to implement the "next article" , They actively play the role of the main channel of classroom education, and carry out interactive and situational education innovation and exploration.

  This year, since the initiation of party history learning and education, the Army of the Southern Theater Command has been guided by the innovative educational concept of "dialogue through time and space", and has gathered efforts to explore three-dimensional classrooms that can bring immersive experiences——

  In the chapter showing the spirit of resisting U.S. aggression and aid to Korea, the host Yang Lifang recites the "Gun Poem: Ode to the Gun", and the video connects with Shi Shoude, the 19th political instructor of the "Sixth Hardcore Company", a veteran to resist U.S. aggression and aid Korea, and broadcast related documentaries and photos;

  In demonstrating the spirit of responsibility of the "demining hero" Du Fuguo, Du Fuguo's invitation to the battle was displayed on the big screen, and the real picture of him when he was injured in the minefield was played. The hospital medical staff also described the self-improvement after the injury. Bit by bit...

  "The key to realizing an immersive experience is to break the time and space limitations of the classroom, expand the extension and depth of the classroom through the comprehensive use of sound, light and other elements, and fully mobilize the vision, hearing and thinking of the officers and soldiers." Participate in the whole exchange sharing class. Zeng Jun, a senior engineer who planned, told reporters.

interact

"From one-way instillation to multi-dimensional interaction, guiding officers and soldiers to complete self-education through enlightenment"

  In the exchange sharing class, the officers and soldiers witnessed the profound friendship between the "thundering hero" An Zhongwen and the "demining hero" Du Fuguo, and they were also infected by their revolutionary optimism.

  "I don't have eyes, but I still have hands. Fuguo doesn't even have a hand. What can he do in the future?" At first, An Zhongwen was anxious when he heard the news of Du Fuguo's injury.

He rushed to the hospital, held Du Fuguo's elbow tightly, and couldn't help crying.

He quickly adjusted his emotions, encouraged Du Fuguo to live a life of pain and bravery, and also shared his experience of facing reality and defeating disability.

  On stage, the two heroes recalled this past together.

In the audience, many officers and soldiers had sore noses and red eyes.

  In this communication and sharing class, the communication and interaction between heroes and models are ubiquitous——

  "You played tenaciously. We went up to take the defense. Your story makes me seem to have heard the gunfire on the ground again." As a witness of the same battle, when An Zhongwen finished his story, he thundered himself. After the battle experience, Qi Youwei, the 27th instructor of the "Hard-Bones Sixth Company", responded enthusiastically and told another thrilling battle story of that year;

  "Learning and practicing the party’s innovative theory youth team" representative and corporal sniper Bai Sha said that he ignored the recurrence of waist injury in the competition field and relied on closed injections to relieve pain, and finally won the army "Sniper King". Zhongwen couldn't help but thumbs up and exclaimed, "You little girl is amazing, I like it for you";

  In the face of Shi Shoude, the 19th instructor of the "Sixth Hardened Company" and Qi Youwei, the 27th instructor of the "Sixth Hardened Company", the current company commander of the "Sixth Hardened Company" Zhao Song introduced to his predecessors the latest construction achievements made since the company reformed and moved. Qi Youwei personally The old hero Shi Shoude’s "Battle Field Notes" was presented to Zhao Song, and the younger generation of officers and soldiers was asked to pass on and carry forward the "hard-boned spirit"...

  The frequent interactions between heroes and models and representatives of heroes and models gave the officers and soldiers a strong sense of presence and intimacy.

The interaction between the stage and the stage made the officers and soldiers more aware of the respectability and learning of heroes and models.

  "Everyone should call me brother or rich country. Be kind. Because I don't think I am a hero, but I just did what I should do." When the new and old heroes entered the officers and soldiers, Du Fuguo's opening speech immediately brought everyone closer.

  A comrade-in-arms asked Du Fuguo how he survived the "dark years" when he was just injured.

Du Fuguo downplayed the pain and talked more about his vision of future work and life.

His optimistic smile and sincere words made his comrades realize that the hero is already fighting on "another battlefield."

  "Sniper Gun King" Baisha and a female brigade communication professional communicated like sisters.

  "Soft shoulders can also carry heavy burdens. Who says that women are inferior to men!" Li Xiaoru, the fourth-level sergeant commander of a certain brigade's communications major, was inspired by Bai Sha and determined to bring out more outstanding fighters like Bai Sha.

She said: "There is no distinction between men and women on the battlefield, and bullets do not depend on gender. We all must strive to be the'overlord flower' who dare to fight and fight."

  "Model of the Times" Wang Rui is the youngest "double-special" amphibious armored vanguard in the entire army, and his comrades are curious: "It is generally difficult to test one special grade. How did you get two special grades?"

  "It's nothing special. It's just learning step by step and practicing one by one..." Wang Rui said, he was a soldier of the Meritorious Company, and he was full of fighting spirit when he thought of the heroes and heroes on the company's honor wall. , Full of power.

  "This class is to make everyone realize that these heroes and models are not out of reach. Army education has injected heroic spirit and red blood into each of us. Anyone can become a hero." Southern Theater Army Political Work Department Propaganda Director Zhang Shouwei told reporters that from the beginning of the exploration, they focused on communication and interaction, which made this class so lively and lively.

He said: "From one-way instillation to multi-dimensional interaction, the enlightenment guides officers and soldiers to complete self-education. Such education often gets twice the result with half the effort."

True love

"Reality itself is the most shocking force, and effective education does not require pretentiousness"

  How would the hero’s mother react when he heard that his son was about to go to the battlefield?

  Different from the impassionedness in some film and television works, in the recounting of Shi Shoude, a veteran warrior to resist US aggression and aid in Korea, when he signed up to join the army, the most fierce opposition was his mother.

At that time, Shi Shoude had just had a daughter.

The mother is worried that her granddaughter will lose her father, and she is also worried that she will lose her son.

  In order to join the army, Shi Shoudla went to his father to work for his mother, and he just got the job done.

Before leaving, his mother said to him with tears in her eyes: "Since you are a soldier, you should be a soldier, be a good soldier."

  His mother's change and entrustment made Shi Shoude's heroic performance on the battlefield more traceable, and the slogan of defending his family and the country had a more specific foothold.

These real details not only made up for the gaps in the officers and soldiers' knowledge of that era and that war, but also made them more convinced of heroic deeds and heroic spirit.

  "These heroic stories truly restored the era, restored the war, and even restored the true nature of human nature. Therefore, they have such a convincing power." The leader of the Army Political Work Department of the Southern Theater District introduced the content of the exchange sharing class at the beginning. At that time, they insisted on the principle of authenticity. No matter how innovative the education model is and how colorful the way of expression is, the truthful and inspiring story content is the foundation of the foundation.

Educational innovation that simply pursues the form and ignores the content cannot be "form for the sake of form".

  In this exchange and sharing class, there are not only the most authentic stories of heroes and models, but also the display of precious objects such as the invitation to the party, the application for joining the party, family letters, etc., so that the content of the dialogue between heroes and models has a touching authenticity.

  "There is no beautification, no exaltation, no rhetoric, truth itself is the most shocking force, and effective education does not require pretense." Sun Zhaohui, company commander of the "Hand-to-Hand Fighting Heroes Company," told reporters, "These real heroic stories, real revolutions Cultural relics are precious'spiritual bonanzas', and they are an inexhaustible source for us to match standards, draw motivation, and forge ahead."

  Although a "Dialogue Through Time and Space" exchange and sharing class is short, its accumulated exploration experience and the impact after promotion in more units are wide and far-reaching.

  Inspired by this exchange and sharing class, how to break the space-time boundary of education classrooms has become one of the common innovation directions of political teachers, and more similar educational activities have been launched one after another——

  On the site of the Xiangjiang Battle, the Southern Theater Army organized 61 colonel officers to search for the footprints of the Red Army’s breakthrough and the trenches that blocked the enemy. They drew strength from the tragic sacrifice of "no drinking water from the Xiangjiang River for three years and no fish from the Xiangjiang River for ten years";

  On the surging Dadu River, a Red Army brigade "Dadu River Company" sent representatives of officers and soldiers to the Anshun field in Guizhou to carry out the activity of "Searching for Roots in a Thousand Miles and Entering the Dadu River Battle Site", and communicating with the descendants of the "Seventeen Warriors" In, strengthen the revolutionary spirit of "ideal and belief are greater than heaven";

  A Hexing brigade visited the red historical memorial venues online through the "red live broadcast", held an event "showing our heirlooms" to dig deep into the stories behind the revolutionary cultural relics, and feel the power of belief from the vivid history...

  "How to improve the quality and efficiency of ideological and political education through continuous innovation is our unswerving pursuit. Breaking the temporal and spatial boundaries of the education classroom is only the beginning, and there are more mental and model constraints that need to be broken." Army Politics of the Southern Theater Command The leader of the work department told reporters, “Innovation has no end, and our exploration will never stop.”

Sharp point of view

Innovation, breakthrough is not just time and space

  ■Chen Dongbo

  President Xi clearly pointed out: "A hopeful nation cannot be without heroes, and a promising country cannot be without pioneers." An era has the spiritual core of an era, and the image and connotation of heroes are constantly expanding and sublimating.

In the new era, remembering heroes, advocating heroes, protecting heroes, and learning heroes are the historical mission and value pursuit of the new generation of young officers and soldiers.

Time and space change, how to tell hero stories well, inherit the heroic spirit, and establish a correct view of heroes are also issues that every officer and soldier of the new era should seriously consider.

  Plato said: "Whoever can tell a story owns the world." Practice has proved that telling a story is better than a thousand truths.

During the survey, we found that some units still stay on the old-fashioned way of educating through heroic deeds. Most of the preaching and the meticulous excavation are small. It is difficult to impress the officers and soldiers, and even more difficult to arouse a strong impression. Vibes.

To make officers and soldiers willing to listen to heroic stories and consciously inherit the heroic spirit, before telling heroic stories, they need to work hard and focus on restoring a true and plump hero, so that the heroic deeds can be learned and the heroic spirit can permeate the soul.

What needs to be emphasized is that hero stories themselves have the power to attract people. Telling hero stories must not be pretentious or fake.

Only truth can move people; only true feelings can move people.

  Telling a good hero story is to pass on and continue the heroic spirit.

At present, we are in a critical period in history that is closest to realizing the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation. We need heroes, and we call for heroes.

Only by passing on the heroic spirit can we inject inexhaustible impetus into the new era.

"Dialogue through time and space" exchange sharing class, centered on the spiritual connotation of revolutionary heroism, carefully designed exchange topics, so that people with ideals can talk about ideals, people with spirits, people with stories to tell stories, highlighting the era of heroism The value demonstrates the inheritance and continuation of the heroic spirit of the officers and soldiers of the new era.

Relive the magnificent history in the interlacing of light and shadow, not only to remember history, remember the martyrs, and pay tribute to the heroes, but also to inspire and influence the younger generation, so that the heroic spirit can be passed on forever.

  Telling a good hero story also needs to enhance the contemporary and appealing power of education.

Innovative methods and methods, so that the presentation of hero stories closely follows the times and closely adheres to the officers and soldiers, so that the officers and soldiers can be truly attracted and the effect of education can be achieved.

The "Dialogue Through Time and Space" exchange sharing class invites heroes from different periods to the podium, and presents the stories of heroes and models from multiple angles through scene-reproducing interviews, creating a multi-dimensional space that connects history and reality, and guiding officers and soldiers in a similar "traveling through time and space." Deepen the understanding and inheritance of the heroic spirit in the immersive experience.

This kind of exchange and sharing class breaks the inherent mode of educators one-way indoctrination and passive acceptance by the educators, adapts to the communication habits of contemporary young officers and soldiers, and satisfies their educational needs.

  Innovation and breakthrough are not just time and space.

Telling heroic stories requires us to continuously integrate resources, innovate and explore new ways and methods, come up with "blockbuster works" that fit the times and are close to the officers and soldiers, promote the main theme, seize the main position, guide the officers and soldiers to perceive the power of truth, inherit the heroic spirit, and inspire The majestic driving force for forge ahead.
