Strategy Construction and Practice Research of Embodied Teaching Integrated into Chemistry Experiment Teaching in High School
Section: Article Keywords: embodied cognition, chemistry education, teaching strategies, core literacy, experimental teaching Under the guidance of core educational literacy, high school chemistry experiment teaching carries the critically important mission of cultivating students' scientific inquiry abilities, practical skills, and innovative consciousness. However, there is a growing tendency of "separation" and "superficialization" in current experimental teaching methodologies. Frequently, students' physical participation in laboratory settings is entirely disconnected from their underlying cognitive thinking and knowledge construction. Embodied teaching, an emerging pedagogical paradigm, emphasizes that human cognition is deeply rooted in bodily perception, sensorimotor interactions, and active physical experience. This framework provides a highly promising new perspective for comprehensive experimental teaching reform. Based on the foundational theory of embodied cognition, this study systematically analyzes the inherent pedagogical compatibility between embodied teaching principles and chemical experiment instruction. Furthermore, it critically examines the existing structural problems and limitations prevalent in current experimental teaching practices. To address these challenges, this research constructs a comprehensive five-dimensional strategy system designed to seamlessly integrate physical action with cognitive engagement. The implementation of this embodied teaching strategy demonstrates significant pedagogical benefits. It can effectively improve students' hands-on experimental operation abilities, elevate their overall scientific thinking levels, and substantially boost their intrinsic learning interest. Ultimately, this study provides a highly practical and operational path for the systematic reform of high school chemistry experiment teaching, ensuring that students achieve a more holistic and deeply integrated scientific education.

Exploring the Application of Generative Artificial Intelligence to Support Pre-Class Preparation in County-Level High School Chemistry
Section: Article Keywords: generative ai, chemistry education, educational technology, independent learning, instructional design In the pre-class preview stage of chemistry education within county-level high schools, several pedagogical challenges are commonly observed, including insufficient resource support, highly formalized preview activities, and the persistent difficulty teachers face in promptly assessing students' learning statuses. Generative artificial intelligence (AI), which excels in dynamic content creation, offers a promising solution by providing timely feedback, constructing diversified learning scenarios, and organizing a comprehensive educational environment. Consequently, this advanced tool introduces innovative strategies for optimizing the pre-class preview paradigm in chemistry instruction. Grounded in the authentic teaching conditions of county-level high school chemistry courses, this study systematically explores the application value of generative AI in pre-class preparatory activities. Drawing upon AI-TPACK theory, constructivist learning theory, and distributed cognition theory, we propose a practical application model encompassing task release, intelligent preview, learning situation diagnosis, and seamless classroom integration. This comprehensive model diversifies pre-study materials, cultivates students' problem-finding habits, and significantly enhances independent learning capabilities, while simultaneously allowing educators to dynamically adjust classroom instruction based on empirical pre-study data. However, the practical deployment of this intelligent tool presents potential risks, such as students directly copying standard answers, developing an overreliance on AI, and encountering factual errors or informational omissions in AI-generated content. To mitigate these issues, educators must strategically position generative AI as an auxiliary teaching instrument, design preview tasks emphasizing the cognitive learning process, and rigorously verify students' preview outcomes during classroom sessions to provide targeted, effective guidance.

A Study on the Meaning Construction of Digital Narrative Discourse of Learners of English in Universities: Taking Holiday-Themed Multimodal Videos as an Example
Section: Article Keywords: digital storytelling, multimodal discourse, visual grammar, english teaching, discourse analysis Learner digital storytelling transforms given narrative content into dynamic multimedia works, a pedagogical approach which has demonstrated a highly positive impact on contemporary English language teaching. Drawing extensively on the Visual Grammar theoretical framework proposed by Kress and van Leeuwen (2020), this empirical study systematically examines foreign language videos published on the official WeChat account of a university located in Northwest China. It conducts a rigorous multimodal discourse analysis across three primary dimensions—representational meaning, interactive meaning, and compositional meaning—to comprehensively explore how university English learners construct complex discourse meaning specifically at the visual level. The analytical findings reveal three key insights: 1) At the level of representational meaning, the utilized images frequently lack sufficient narrative strength; 2) At the level of interactive meaning, the overall meaning construction tends heavily toward the objective transmission of factual information; 3) In terms of compositional meaning construction, visual salience is notably insufficient across the sampled media. Therefore, while the visual modality in the short videos created by these learners generally serves an adequate communicative function, it functions primarily as a supplementary tool to the dominant textual modality, meaning the holistic construction of visual meaning remains incomplete. By analyzing bilingual videos focused on traditional Chinese festivals, this study explores the nuanced characteristics of learners' multimodal expression, offering valuable pedagogical insights for language teachers. Furthermore, it helps learners gain a deeper understanding of Chinese history, customs, and cultural heritage, ultimately laying a robust foundation for effective cross-cultural dissemination.

A Study of the Picturesque Aesthetics in Waverley
Section: Article Keywords: Walter Scott, historical fiction, picturesque aesthetics, national identity, scottish literature, cultural heritage In his foundational historical novel Waverley, Walter Scott masterfully depicts Scotland's rugged landscapes, distinctive characters, and traditional costumes from a profoundly picturesque perspective, thereby highlighting the nation's "primitive imagery" and inherent exoticism. This deliberate artistic choice not only echoes the prevailing picturesque aesthetics of the nineteenth century but also significantly deepens the shaping and global dissemination of Scotland's national image. Through Scott's evocative prose, the natural landscapes, historical figures, and cultural artifacts in the novel are endowed with a romantic and mysterious aura. Consequently, these elements transcend mere background details, becoming essential visual codes for constructing a cohesive Scottish national identity and preserving its rich cultural heritage. Furthermore, the protagonist, Edward Waverley, functions as more than a passive spectator; he acts as an "alien" observer who deeply penetrates the Scottish Highlands. As an outsider, he appreciates the sublime vastness of the Scottish moors, the melancholic dilapidation of ancient castles, and the vibrant splendor of clan costumes through a highly stylized picturesque lens. This perspective effectively filters the harsh, often violent socio-political realities of the Jacobite rising into a captivating aesthetic spectacle designed for the reader's gaze. Ultimately, Waverley undergoes a profound emotional and psychological conversion, navigating the complex tension between cultural distance and newfound intimacy, which underscores the transformative power of aesthetic experience in historical literature.

The Core Theses and Theoretical Logic of Ideological and Political Education in the Classic Works of Marx and Engels
Section: Article Keywords: ideological education, political education, marxist theory, human development, party spirit The core theses and theoretical logic of ideological and political education embedded within the classic texts of Karl Marx and Friedrich Engels can be systematically summarized into three fundamental dimensions. First, these foundational works emphasize adhering strictly to the proletarian stance of Party spirit, or party-mindedness. This clarifies that ideological and political education inherently serves the broader proletarian revolutionary movement, consistently upholding the vanguard leadership of the Communist Party, and deeply relying on the mass line for sustained momentum. Second, the classic literature reveals that the essential function of such education lies in the concept of "theory gripping the masses," thereby transforming abstract philosophical thought into a tangible, revolutionary material force. Furthermore, its social origin is rooted in the historical materialist fact that material production and social intercourse fundamentally shape and change ideological concepts. Consequently, its ultimate historical mission is to realize a society where "the free development of each is the condition for the free development of all." Third, these texts establish critical methodological principles for educational practice. They take "real, active men" as the definitive logical starting point, adhering to the dialectical principle of transformation where "thought strives to realize itself" and "reality strives toward thought." This transformative process relies heavily on "those who wield practical force"---namely, the dedicated contingent of Communists---for effective implementation. Ultimately, these comprehensive theses provide a robust textual basis and enduring conceptual principles for advancing ideological and political education in the contemporary new era.

A Study on the Value Exploration and Practical Path of Traditional Culture Education in Chinese Language Classrooms from the Perspective of Moral Education and Character Building
Section: Article Keywords: Traditional Chinese culture, Moral education, Character building, Chinese language pedagogy, Curriculum integration, Confucian virtue ethics, Teacher professional development This study investigates how traditional Chinese culture education in higher education College Chinese (Daxue Yuwen) classrooms can be strategically reoriented to advance the fundamental task of fostering virtue through education (Lide Shuren) and character building. Grounded in national curriculum standards and UNESCO's cultural literacy framework, the research bridges theoretical insights from Confucian virtue ethics, care-based moral development, and contemporary pedagogical scholarship with empirical realities of classroom practice. Through a critical review of existing literature, the paper identifies a persistent disjunction between the normative emphasis on cultural inheritance and the fragmented, often superficial, implementation observed across schools. To address this theory--practice chasm, the study proposes an original conceptual architecture---the Three-Dimensional Integration Model (3DIM)---which organizes cultural pedagogy along three interdependent axes: the Textual Axis, emphasizing semantic depth and hermeneutic rigor in classical and modern texts; the Relational Axis, foregrounding dialogic meaning-making among teachers, students, and texts; and the Embodied Axis, incorporating ritualized practices such as chanted recitation and aesthetic reflection to cultivate moral sensibility and agency. The model is empirically anchored in findings from a national survey of 1,247 language teachers, revealing widespread gaps in interpretive training, assessment capacity, and curricular time allocation---particularly acute in local and vocational institutions. Implementation pathways are differentiated by scale---from micro-integration in grammar tasks to cross-curricular projects---and aligned with China's Five-Education Integration policy and Core Competencies for Chinese Students. The study concludes that effective traditional culture education must move beyond symbolic representation toward ethically engaged, contextually responsive praxis. It offers actionable recommendations for teacher professional development, formative assessment design, and curriculum policy reform, positioning language instruction not merely as linguistic transmission but as a vital site for cultivating morally grounded, culturally rooted citizens.

The Dual Images of Nature in Robert Frost's Poems
Section: Article Keywords: Frost, nature, image Robert Frost was one of the most popular American poets of the 20th century. Most of Frost's poems are devoted to rural life in England, with nature as its subject. Nature also has a double image in his poetry. This thesis divides the natural images in his poetry into bright and dark sides, supplemented by examples to explain them. First of all, in the poems of "Birches", "Dust of Snow", "In Winter in the Woods Alone" etc., nature is beautiful, delightful and hopeful. However, in the poems of "An Old Man's Winter Night", "Once By the Pacific", "Acquainted with the Night" etc., nature is threatening, fearful, and indifferent. Hence, nature has dual images in Frost's poems. What's more, the images of nature are an important part of Frost's poetry to. It helps with our understanding of Frost's poetry and poetics and therefore deserves a careful study.

From Skill-Centrism to Skill as the Vehicle of the Way: A Phenomenological Reflection on and Reconstruction of Vocational Education Evaluation
Section: Article Keywords: vocational education, educational phenomenology, evaluation reform, educational assessment, skill evaluation Following extensive efforts to dismantle the deeply entrenched paradigms of "score-centrism" and "qualification-centrism" within China's contemporary education evaluation reform, some vocational colleges have inadvertently veered toward an opposite, yet equally problematic, extreme: "skill-centrism." This emerging phenomenon refers to the reductive practice of treating single-skill proficiency as the sole and absolute evaluation criterion. Consequently, this narrow focus severely neglects crucial aspects of holistic student growth, particularly their professional ethics, critical judgment capacity, and potential for long-term sustainable development. Employing a rigorous educational phenomenological approach and utilizing a specialized auditing practice course as a primary case study, this research systematically delineates four typical lived experiences of students subjected to skill-centric evaluation frameworks. Through this qualitative analysis, the study reveals four profoundly obscured dimensions of educational meaning: the critical absence of ethical awareness, the systemic suppression of independent judgment, the fundamental rupture of sustainable career development, and the ultimate instrumentalization of the human person. To address these systemic deficiencies, this study proposes an innovative "Skill as the Vehicle of the Way" evaluation paradigm. This comprehensive framework comprises four interconnected pillars: Ethics as the Soul, Skill as the Foundation, Judgment as the Key, and Development as the End. By integrating these essential components, the proposed model offers a robust and highly potential pathway for facilitating the critical transition from merely "dismantling" outdated systems to actively "constructing" a more balanced, ethical, and sustainable future in vocational education evaluation reform.
