| The purpose of the higher education is to cultivate people by virtue,which is to guide students to form a correct world outlook,on life and on values as well.It would help the students develop a sound personality and master the corresponding knowledge and skills.Therefore,they would become comprehensive high-quality talents with allround development of morality,intelligence,physique,beauty,and labor.The Central Committee of the Communist Party of China has included aesthetic education in the national education guideline,which not only provides a policy theoretical basis for the blending of aesthetic teaching into ideological and political schooling in colleges and universities,but also points out the new teaching ideas for the improvement of the educating grade of ideological and political education in colleges and universities.Modern college students are the backbone of realizing the country’s socialist modernization and promoting economic and social development.The teaching objective of ideological and political coaching in the Chinese higher education is both to teach students the theoretical understanding of Marxism and socialism with Chinese features,and to guide college students correctly.It is imperative to establish firm ideals and beliefs,correct values,and lofty social ideals,in order to promote their comprehensive and healthy development.Aesthetic education is the main body of education in accordance with the aesthetic consciousness of a certain era,with the assistance of various aesthetic media,to influence,motivate,cultivate,and educate people with beautiful art.It also aims to develop and improve the educated students’ ability to appreciate and create the beauty.For non-art students in colleges and universities,art-related education disciplines are the main approach and an essential method to realize aesthetic education and teaching.Its flexible and changeable "heuristic" education model would exert a great influence on college students’ aesthetic ability,innovative spirit,comprehensive quality,and sound personality.Cultivation plays an important role in promoting this.The integration of aesthetic education into ideological and political teaching in the Chinese higher education would effectively promote teachers to change from a single "dissemination" of theory to multi-directional "guidance",which would help students change from passive "absorption" of knowledge to active "participation",thereby gradually eliminating the gap between teachers and students.The sense of boundaries is to promote the realization of the target of ideological and political teaching in higher education and create an allround talent training system.Based on analyzing the relationship between ideological and political education and aesthetic education in colleges and universities,this paper explores the theoretical basis,importance and necessity of integrating aesthetic education in the process of ideological and political education in colleges and universities.It focuses on analyzing the problems and reasons of integrating aesthetic education in the process of ideological and political education in colleges and universities.On this basis,it proposes to attach importance to aesthetic education and enrich the connotation of ideological and political education,as well as paying attention to aesthetic education.Moreover,it would improve the effectiveness of ideological and political education.Meanwhile,the aesthetic quality would be enhanced,and ideological and political teachers would be trained as well.Building an aesthetic system and refining the ideological and political teaching mechanism will help enrich the aesthetic culture.It is also important to carry out ideological and political education practice and create an aesthetic environment to promote specific countermeasures such as ideological and political education linkage teaching. |
