Research on the Path of Digitally Empowering the Connotative Development of Ideological and Political Courses in Colleges and Universities

Abstract

With the deepening of education digitization strategies and the rapid advancement of generative artificial intelligence, college ideological and political courses—which play a central role in fulfilling the fundamental mission of moral education—are now confronted with both significant opportunities and challenges for qualitative growth. This study employs a literature review approach to systematically examine the current era, the value significance, and the practical difficulties faced by digitally empowered ideological and political courses. Furthermore, it proposes practical strategies for enhancing their connotative development through three key dimensions: innovating teaching concepts, building a robust resource system, and strengthening teachers’ capabilities. The findings aim to offer both theoretical insights and practical guidance for the reform and innovation of ideological and political education in the contemporary context.
