"The general secretary listened carefully to the speeches of each teacher and student, and communicated with everyone with eyes. He also turned sideways and looked at the notes I took."

  Wang Zhuo, a 2020 master's student at the School of Education, Renmin University of China, will never forget this scene——

  On the morning of April 25, 2022, in the Lide Building of Renmin University of China, an ideological and political class with the theme of "Inheriting the Spiritual Genealogy of Chinese Communists and Becoming a New Person of the Era Shoulder the Important Responsibility of National Rejuvenation" was underway.

General Secretary Xi Jinping walked into the classroom, sat around with young students, observed on-site teaching and participated in discussions.

On April 25, 2022, General Secretary Xi Jinping came to Renmin University of China for inspection and research.

This is the General Secretary observing live teaching in the smart classroom of ideological and political courses in Lide Building and participating in discussions.

  The general secretary started from the extraordinary journey China has taken, talking about Marxism in the cave dwellings of Yan'an, the poverty and poverty at the beginning of the founding of New China, and the thunderous breakthroughs of reform and opening up... He encouraged the students to comprehensively build a modern socialist country. In the new journey, bravely be the pioneer and strive to be the career leader.

  A similar scene also appeared in Chenzhou, Hunan.

  On September 16, 2020, when General Secretary Xi Jinping walked into the fourth-grade classroom of the first primary school in Wenming Yao Township, Chenzhou, Hunan, the students were taking an ideological and political class. The blackboard read "Tell the story of the Long March to become a new generation of the times."

  "What is the story of the monument?" asked the general secretary.

  "While the Red Army was marching, the general saw an old soldier who was frozen. The old soldier's clothes were thin..." A student stood up and told how during the Long March, the director of the munitions department gave away cotton-padded clothes to his comrades, but he himself died in the severe cold. s story.

  After hearing this, the General Secretary repeatedly praised "well said".

He said to the children: "You are just small saplings now, and one day you will grow into towering trees of the Chinese nation."

On September 16, 2020, General Secretary Xi Jinping had a cordial exchange with students who were taking ideological and political courses at the No. 1 Primary School in Wenming Yao Township, Rucheng County, Chenzhou City, Hunan Province.

  Running ideological and political courses well is something that General Secretary Xi Jinping is very concerned about.

He said that it is very necessary to set up ideological and political courses in universities, middle schools and primary schools in a gradual and spiral manner. It is an important guarantee for cultivating generations of socialist builders and successors.

  As early as the summer of 1984, Xi Jinping, then Secretary of the Zhengding County Party Committee, taught ideological and political courses to college students who returned to their hometown for the summer vacation.

When working in Zhejiang, he also taught ideological and political courses to college students.

A graduate of Zhejiang University who listened to Xi Jinping's lectures recalled: "He was the secretary of the provincial party committee at the time, but he had no airs of a big leader at all, and he had no official language or clichés. Instead, he communicated with us like a big friend."

  Since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, General Secretary Xi Jinping has delivered a series of important speeches and made a series of important instructions, systematically, scientifically and profoundly answering a series of directional and fundamental questions related to the construction of ideological and political courses in schools in the new era. , pointing out the way forward for effectively doing a good job in ideological and political work in schools.

  "Some people have proposed turning ideological and political courses into hidden courses and fully integrating them into other humanistic quality courses. This is wrong." General Secretary Xi Jinping clearly pointed out that when we run socialist education with Chinese characteristics, we must confidently teach ideological and political courses well.

  Each "micro-lens" is impressive——

  General Secretary Xi Jinping personally presided over a symposium for teachers of ideological and political theory courses in schools.

At the meeting, he bluntly stated: If you work as a monk and hit the clock all day, following the instructions and doing errands, your "class attendance rate" and "head-up rate" will be greatly reduced.

  At Nankai University, he asked the teachers next to him, "How to teach ideological and political classes? Are students interested?" and told him to "speak more vividly. To cultivate socialist builders and successors, we must first cultivate students' Patriotism”.

  When discussing national affairs with members of the CPPCC, General Secretary Xi Jinping vividly said, "We must make good use of this 'big ideological and political course'" and "holding a document and reading it out there is lifeless and dry, and no one will love it." Listen, I don’t like to hear it either.”

  When he visited Hunan University in the rain, he met teachers and students who were taking ideological and political courses at Yuelu Academy. He communicated with the students with great interest, cordially asked everyone's opinions on the course, and also emphasized that "classroom teaching and practical teaching must be organically combined stand up".

On March 18, 2019, General Secretary Xi Jinping hosted a symposium for teachers of ideological and political theory courses in schools in Beijing and delivered an important speech.

  The spring breeze turns into rain, moistening things silently.

  Since 2018, colleges and universities have established undergraduate majors in Marxist theory for the first time.

  In November 2020, the total number of full-time and part-time teachers of ideological and political courses in colleges and universities across the country registered in the database exceeded 100,000 for the first time.

  In March 2023, the country's first batch of "Ideological and Political Course Integration Community in Universities, Middle Schools and Primary Schools" brand projects was launched.

  One "first" after another vividly reflects that the ideological and political work in our country's schools has continuously reached a new level of high-quality development in terms of scientific system construction, content construction, brand building, etc.——

  In Gansu, by holding "big competition" teaching demonstration activities for teachers of ideological and political courses in universities, middle schools and primary schools, and establishing studios for famous teachers of ideological and political courses, the resources of universities, middle schools and primary schools are interconnected and shared.

  In Tianjin, 1,400 primary and secondary schools and colleges and universities carry out joint construction and research of ideological and political courses, and organize more than 100 municipal-level cross-study themed activities every year.

  In Xinjiang, teachers from Wusu No. 1 Middle School held ideological and political courses at the famous Xiaobaiyang Post, leading students to experience an "immersive" day in the life of a border guard.

On March 30, 2021, Professor Kong Hainan created an "immersive" ideological and political course for students next to the "Mini Erhai" in Nansu Garden of Shanghai Jiao Tong University.

  In Shanghai, unique ideological and political courses such as Donghua University's "Splendid China" course, East China Normal University's "China Wisdom" course, and Shanghai Institute of Sport's "National Table Tennis Glory" course are being offered one after another. A common sight.

  …………

  In today's China, ideological and political courses have gone from "highbrow and low-key" to "moisturizing and silent", which has enabled the majority of students to deepen their feelings about their family and country in the comparison of history and reality, and sow the seeds of ideals and beliefs.

As General Secretary Xi Jinping summed up: “Today’s China is a China that continues its national spirit.”
