Exploration and Practice of Ideological and Political Education in the Inorganic and Analytical Chemistry Curriculum for the Post-COVID-19 Era
The integration of the Ideological and Political Education (hereafter IPE) into university curricula is a pivotal strategic measure for achieving the fundamental goal of fostering virtue through education, whichrepresents a key direction in higher education reform[1]. The post-COVID-19 era offers new opportunities for this initiative. Grounded in the context of this new era, this paper takes the Inorganic and Analytical Chemistry course within the Food Engineering and Technology major as a
specific example. It thoroughly explores materials related to pandemic control policies, food safety, public health, and ideology. By incorporating the advanced deeds and exemplary figures emerging from the fight against the pandemic into teaching cases, this study aims to organically blend these elements with the instruction of professional knowledge. This approach seeks to enhance the effectiveness and appeal of IPE while promoting the Socialist Core Values[2]. Ultimately, this paper aims to provide a theoretical framework for realizing the tripartite educational objective—value guidance, competency cultivation, and knowledge transmission—through the Inorganic and Analytical Chemistry course in food engineering education[3].
