Research on Enhancing the Affinity and Relevance of Ideological and Political Theory Courses in Universities in the New Era

As the main channel of ideological and political education in universities, Ideological and Political Theory Courses (hereinafter referred to as "IPTC") play a crucial role in achieving the fundamental task of fostering virtue through education. Affinity and relevance are key to realizing the educational effectiveness of theory, and are important directions for promoting the reform of IPTC in universities. In the new era, to enhance the affinity of IPTC in colleges and universities, colleges and universities should adhere to integrity and innovation, firmly maintain the main position of classroom teaching, and constantly improve the classroom affinity of IPTC through the reform of teaching methods and means. Universities combine knowledge with action to promote large-scale social practice classes and enhance the relevance of IPTC teaching. Colleges and universities should adopt the differentiated teaching of the same course, strengthen the construction of IPTC teachers' teaching team in colleges and universities, establish the cooperation mechanism between various disciplines and IPTC, improve the effectiveness of IPTC, and make it a truly popular course among college students.
