Abstract:
In recent years, it has become the consensus of universities to integrate ideological and political education into professional courses. Teachers should strengthen the cultivation of students’ ideological and moral character while imparting professional knowledge. As a traditional overseas Chinese school, Huaqiao University should pay more attention to the ideological and political work of overseas students in professional classroom teaching, not only to help students better adapt to professional study and independent life, but also to help them correctly understand China’s cultural background and development status. Taking the course of basic principles of steel structure as an example, the course orientation, classroom teaching, and graduation requirements are analyzed from multiple dimensions, and the goal of ideological and political education is clarified. The course of basic principles of steel structure is closely related to engineering practice. In the ideological and political design of the course, we should pay attention to collecting cases of steel structure-related engineering projects, industry leaders, and Chinese traditional culture, from which we can excavate teaching elements with ideological and political connotations and deeply integrate teaching design with ideological and political education. In addition, from the three links of pre-class preview guidance, in-class theory teaching, and after-class practice teaching, this paper explores the path of integrating ideological and political education into professional basic courses teaching, implements the ideological and political objectives of courses, and enhances students’ cultural identity and national pride.
