Abstract
Red cultural resources, which are valuable spiritual assets produced in the course of the Chinese Communist Party leading the people in revolution, construction, and reform, are key carriers for ideological and political education. This study, with cases of educational practices from different places in China, using literature studies, cases, and data analysis approaches, aims to systematically study the effective channels for integrating red cultural resources into ideological and political education. Findings from this study indicate that a “five-in-one” practical pathway system, consisting of innovation of curriculum system paths, deepened practical education, empowerment through digital technology, building a cooperation mechanism, and improvement of evaluation systems, can greatly increase the efficiency of ideological and political education. Data from the Ministry of Education indicates that over 1,600 revolutionary history museums and memorial halls and over 300 classic red tourism scenic spots in China have been key spots for ideological and political education, with receptions of red tourism exceeding 2 billion person-times, which has huge potential for educational development in red culture. This study offers theoretical support and practical paths for innovative development in ideological and political education in a new era.
