The study proposes a “three-tier screening-multi-dimensional integration-dynamic update” mechanism for textbook integration, a “theoretical foundation-practical refinement-reflective enhancement” model for teacher development, a “goal-oriented-activity design-effect evaluation” system for practical teaching, and a “spatial renovation-activity planning-digital empowerment” strategy for cultural environment creation. By establishing a systematic operational process and a closed-loop training mechanism, the integration of traditional culture and ideological and political education is achieved, effectively enhancing the cultural depth and educational effectiveness of ideological and political teaching, and laying a solid foundation for universities to fulfill their fundamental mission of cultivating virtue and fostering talent.
