This study comprehensively examines the development process and implementation challenges of the integration of ideological and political education in China since the reform and opening-up through literature review, case studies, and field research. The study found that China’s moral education system has undergone a paradigm shift from “political education” to “comprehensive moral education,” exhibiting significant policy-driven characteristics. Inadequate coordination mechanisms and limited horizontal synergy effects are the primary challenges currently facing the development of ideological and political education courses, with their root causes lying in structural contradictions in the supply side of collaborative governance mechanisms. Based on the example of the integration of ideological and political education in primary, secondary, and higher education institutions in Zhongshan City, Guangdong Province, the study proposes a new four-dimensional collaborative mechanism involving the family, school, society, and the internet. The family dimension focuses on the daily immersion in excellent traditional culture; the school dimension constructs a composite education system with spiral-shaped content development, cross-disciplinary teacher training, and multi-dimensional evaluation; the social dimension builds a platform for practical education communities; and the internet dimension innovates the digital education ecosystem. The research findings indicate that this mechanism can effectively promote the integrated connection and coordinated development of ideological and political education across all educational stages, providing a systematic, innovative solution for the modernization of the ideological and political education system in the new era.</p> Wenbin Wang Copyright (c) 2025 Author(s) https://bbwpublisher.com/index.php/erd/article/view/12088 Fri, 26 Sep 2025 10:29:24 +0800 The Application Path of the Blended Differentiated Teaching Model in International Chinese Teaching https://bbwpublisher.com/index.php/erd/article/view/12089 <p>As an organic combination of blended teaching model and differentiated teaching model, the blended differentiated teaching model can not only effectively break through the time and space limitations in the offline implementation of differentiated teaching, truly extend the classroom to online platforms, but also help students build personal learning resource libraries and promote personalized learning.

Based on the technology empowerment logic of artificial intelligence in the educational field, this paper systematically analyzes the main changes in primary school mathematics education in three aspects: teaching resources, classroom models and evaluation systems: first, the transformation of teaching resources from traditional paper to intelligent and diversified; second, the evolution of classroom teaching from “teacher-centered” to “student-centered” personalized interactive mode; third, the expansion of the evaluation system from terminal result evaluation to process-based, data-based, and multi-dimensional evaluation. In response to the current difficulties faced by teachers in adapting to the integration of technical literacy, teaching concepts and practices, this article proposes coping strategies such as improving information technology capabilities, building a personalized teaching system, establishing a scientific and reasonable multi-evaluation mechanism, and strengthening the combination of theory and practice, emphasizing the important support of inter-school cooperation and educational ecological synergy for the sustainable advancement of reform. This article aims to provide theoretical support and practical inspiration for the transformation of primary school mathematics education in the context of the artificial intelligence era, and to help improve education quality and modernize basic education.</p> Yize Dong Copyright (c) 2025 Author(s) https://bbwpublisher.com/index.php/erd/article/view/12092 Fri, 26 Sep 2025 10:55:32 +0800 Application of AI-Enabled Teaching in the Course of Probability Theory and Mathematical Statistics https://bbwpublisher.com/index.php/erd/article/view/12093 <p>To address the shortcomings of traditional teaching methods in personalized support, real-time feedback, and comprehensive evaluation, this study proposes an AI-driven instructional model. The model provides students with personalized learning paths and structured resources through intelligent recommendation systems and knowledge graphs; optimizes the learning process by integrating blended learning to achieve a closed-loop system encompassing self-directed pre-class preparation, interactive in-class engagement, and targeted post-class reinforcement; and establishes a multidimensional evaluation system that combines formative assessment with competency-based evaluations of competition performance and practical skills, thereby fostering students’ comprehensive development. The findings demonstrate that this model not only significantly enhances students’ mastery of theoretically challenging courses such as Probability and Mathematical Statistics, but also improves learning initiative and practical application skills, offering a scalable intelligent solution for the reform of mathematics education in higher education institutions.</p> Yongxin Bai, Yan Sun Copyright (c) 2025 Author(s) https://bbwpublisher.com/index.php/erd/article/view/12093 Fri, 26 Sep 2025 11:07:28 +0800 A Exploration and Practice of the Training Model for Curriculum in Engineering Education: A Case Study of Emergency Communication https://bbwpublisher.com/index.php/erd/article/view/11799 <p>In the field of emergency communication teaching, traditional approaches are increasingly struggling to keep pace with the rapid development of modern industries. These conventional models focus primarily on one-way transmission of theoretical knowledge, leading to a disconnect from real-world application scenarios. Consequently, students lack practical proficiency and fail to meet the industry’s talent requirements. Through a thorough analysis of the shortcomings in existing curriculum plans, this paper innovatively proposes a teaching model based on OBE-CDIO and actively applies it to the teaching practice of emergency communication technology. During implementation, teaching content is systematically broken down into multiple interrelated sub-projects to form a complete project chain. For each project, the four key phases of the CDIO framework are strictly adhered to: Conceive (to inspire creativity), Design (to formulate plans), Implement (to put ideas into action), and Operate (to test outcomes). Simultaneously, assessment methods have been reformed: open-ended questions are used to evaluate students’ thinking abilities, while project-based assessments measure their practical achievements. This enables a comprehensive and accurate evaluation of teaching effectiveness. Finally, student feedback was collected via questionnaires to conduct an in-depth analysis of the application of this emergency communication curriculum training model in engineering education. The results indicate that this model has yielded significant results in boosting students’ learning interest and practical abilities, while also significantly enhancing the quality of emergency communication teaching.</p> Changpeng JI, Wei Dai, Longxue Yu Copyright (c) 2025 Author(s) https://bbwpublisher.com/index.php/erd/article/view/11799 Fri, 26 Sep 2025 11:14:03 +0800 Exploration on the Path of AIGC Empowering College English Writing Teaching https://bbwpublisher.com/index.php/erd/article/view/12094 <p>With the in-depth implementation of educational reform, college English writing teaching should also keep pace with the times, focusing on AIGC empowerment to improve the effectiveness and efficiency of talent cultivation, enabling students to comprehensively apply their professional knowledge to engage in related work after graduation.
