Application of Museum Digital Resources in Middle School History Teaching:A Case Study on the Teaching of the War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression

The rapid development of information technology has greatly facilitated the extensive use of museum digital resources in secondary school history education, becoming a key contributor of educational innovation. The display of digitized artifacts and historical materials overcomes the spatial and temporal limitations of traditional teaching, bringing historical scenes into the classroom. It allows students to intuitively grasp the stories and the spirit behind the artifacts, enhancing the authenticity of learning and fostering emotional resonance. Virtual exhibitions and immersive experiences create dynamic cultural scenes, breaking the static nature of traditional classrooms and enabling students to gain a deeper understanding of history through sensory and multi-sensory experiences. Integrating museum academic resources into the classroom helps students move beyond textbook knowledge, providing insights into the complexity of historical events while developing critical thinking and research skills. The digital resources from international World War II museums cover the wartime experiences of various countries. Through teaching strategies such as thematic research and comparative analysis, these resources help students understand the multidimensional impacts of war, fostering global perspectives, critical thinking, and historical reflection. Using the teaching of the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression as an example, this paper explores the application strategies of these digital resources in secondary school history classrooms, aiming to provide diverse and practical solutions that enhance the effectiveness of history education.
