Abstract

With the rapid advancement of information technology, the digital transformation of ideological and political education courses in higher education institutions has become an inevitable trend. This paper conducts an in-depth analysis of practical challenges encountered during this digital transition, including uneven quality of digital teaching resources, insufficient digital pedagogical competencies among faculty, low student engagement, and an underdeveloped evaluation system. By combining theoretical exploration with empirical research, the paper proposes optimization strategies for advancing digital transformation in ideological education courses. These include enhancing the development of digital teaching resources, strengthening professional training for educators, stimulating student participation, and refining assessment mechanisms. The aim is to elevate the quality of ideological education while achieving modernization in political education practices.
