General Introduction of the Ideological and Political Construction of
College Cours in China
The importance of ideological and political education in Chine university education is cloly related to the purpo of running a university and the significance of its existence. Higher education institutions are “The most important part of the country ”, and the cultivation of talents in higher education institutions is not only related to the passing on of knowledge and skills. The first chapter of the university says: “The way of the university, in the clear moral, in the people-friendly, in the best ”. Thus, it is the fundamental aim of university education to cultivate talents with noble ntiments and to put the interests of the nation first.
The rearch on “Curriculum ideology and politics ” in colleges and universities in our country started from the National Conference on ideological rectification in December 2016. At prent, all domestic scholars agree that the orientation of ideological and political cour is a hidden cour embedded in the teaching process of all professional cours and general cours. The integration of “Ideological and political cour ” and “Curriculum ideological and political cour ” has also been widely recognized.

details in the ideological and political construction in the classroom, this paper focus on the discussion of how to adopt the perspective of “Reception aesthetics” in the actual classroom practice and u the corresponding teaching methods to solve specific problems.
Relative Principles of Reception Aesthetics
The theory of “Reception aesthetics” was propod by German philosopher Hans Robert Jausz and i
s bad on Hans-georg Gadamer’s philosophical hermeneutics. Hans-georg Gadamer attaches great importance to the historicity of his works. He believes that his works are not eternal and unchanging objects placed opposite the subject of cognition, but are in fact the process of revealing meaning in an open-ended future-oriented understanding, which belongs to effective history. “A work is fundamentally unfinished becau it requires an interpreter” (Jausz, 1987, p. 143), and the reader’s understanding is crucial to its existence.
Inspired by Hans-Georg Gadamer, Jausz believes that the reader’s reading is the ultimate and most important part of a work’s existence, and that the meaning of a work can only be revealed through the reader’s reading. Different readers have different understandings of the same work. The process of interaction between the reader and the work is the process of the work being accepted. In Jausz’s reception aesthetics, “Horizon of expectation”is the core concept, which refers to the reader’s intentional expectation of the work before reading, which has a relatively certain range; readers often u it as a frame of reference to understand and evaluate works. The study of the dominant common horizon of expectation in a certain historical period, that is, the horizon of public expectation, is the main task of reception aesthetics. The rearch on public horizon mainly starts from two aspects of “Vertical reception” and “Horizontal reception”. The so-called “Vertical acceptance” refers to the acce
ptance of the same work by readers of different times. “Horizontal acceptance” refers to the acceptance of the same works by readers of the same age. In order to evaluate a work, both vertical acceptance and horizontal acceptance must be considered (Jausz, 1987).
Appreciation of the Ideological and Political Construction of the Curriculum From the
Perspective of Reception Aesthetics
bombardment
If the ideological and political cour is regarded as a literary work, the teacher is the author of the work and the students are the readers. The process of teacher’s preparation and teaching is the process of author’s writing, and the process of students’ listening is the process of readers’ reading and accepting the works. Only paying attention to the teacher (the author) to the ideological and political cour (works) the preaching, but not considering the student (the reader) to the ideological and political cour absorption degree (the reading acceptance condition), fundamentally, it does not finish this work (ideological and political cour construction). Becau the ideological and political cour (work) is not invariable, the student (reader) has the difference to its understanding and the judgment. Only by riously considering the process of students’acceptance, paying attention to the problems in the process of acceptance, and dealing with them can we successfully complete the ideological and political cour construction.
Students have formed the traditional ideological and political curriculum of the past impression, that is, the corresponding “Horizon of expectations”. The majority of people in today’s society view the ideological and political curriculum, that is, “Public horizon of expectations”. The absorption of ideological and political cours in different periods is “Vertical acceptance”, and the absorption of ideological and political cours in the same

period is “Horizontal acceptance”. The difficult problem of ideological and political cour is how to make students really accept the content of ideological and political cour, that is, how to make the “Reader” accept the “Works” from the heart.
From the perspective of “Reception aesthetics”, the ideological and political construction of curriculum is to design and create a work of art. Putting the educational and entertaining functions of the curriculum (works of art—RRB) into the students’listening (equivalent to readers’reading), we can e: How to make students naturally accept the teacher’s ideological and political education in the learning process is the cour of ideological and political construction to face the key problem, w
hich is also a difficult problem. From the perspective of reception aesthetics, how much vitality, effect, and success of the cour ideological and political work depends on how much ideological and political content the students (readers) really listen to, accept, and absorb. In the students’ mind, the traditional ideological and political education is mostly dull and boring, which forms the readers’original “Horizon of expectation”. In order to successfully construct the ideological and political cour and solve the ideological and political problems, it is necessary to improve the students’“Horizon of expectation”, open up the “Aesthetic distance”, and really appreciate (read) the ideological education (works), the ideological and political elements to absorb (accept) into the heart that it is right and good, in the future, in accordance with the direction it points to go.
Implementation Strategy
The ideological and political construction of the curriculum needs not only theoretical guidance, but also certain implementation strategies. Ideological and political construction is very clear, but it is not achieved overnight; during the period there will be a variety of problems. It is not a simple operation to achieve the perfect integration of “Curriculum” and “Ideology and politics” in teaching practice. First of all, the objects of education in colleges and universities are all grown-up students, with basic cultural knowledge, in the formation of three views, personality publicity, for a variety of ideas, views

of the instinctive spirit of skepticism and criticism; it is difficult to rely on the classroom to make it change with a few straightforward words. Secondly, the ubiquitous modern network media also make the fast-food culture of entertainment circle widely spread in the university campus, for students to form a rious and noble state of mind which will also have a certain negative impact. The are the real stumbling blocks of ideological and political construction.
From the perspective of reception aesthetics, the key to the ideological and political construction of the curriculum is to understand the students’ original “Horizon of expectation” and the differences of “Horizontal acceptance” among different individuals, and to make u of appropriate and diver teaching methods, from three aspects of teaching content, teaching process, and effect evaluation; it creates conditions for students to “Accept” (absorb) “Works” (ideological and political cour), and finally opens up “Aesthetic distance”.

In today’s society, the network resources are extremely rich. Teachers in the stage of lesson preparation, according to the content of the textbook, text theme, add a variety of materials.

integrate the ideological and political part into the courware and teaching plan (to avoid singing high-key, improve the “Horizon of expectation” of students, open up the “Aesthetic distance”) to launch a brainstorming analysis and discussion, to expand ideas, to understand the “Horizon of expectation” of students in the minds of many teachers, to learn from each other, and to improve the level of ideological and political construction. Adopting a Variety of Teaching Methods at the Stage of Teaching
In the specific teaching process, the teacher can focus on the ideological and political construction in each unit teaching plan introduction stage or text explanation stage, in the topic introduction or text explanation process, appropriate inrtion of ideological and political content; it not only attracts the students’ interest in the unit topic, but also educates the students in the process of democratic discussion.

Why do you like him/her? On the surface, this part of the ideological and political development is not difficult, becau the students will quickly name their favorite sports stars, such as Tian Liang, Sun Yingsha, et al., and much of their admiration for sports stars comes from the athletic exploits of the athletes. The pictures of the Chine champions’ tear in their eyes when the national anthem was played at the Olympic Games were inrted into the courware, which naturally aroud the students’ patriotic mentality of eing the good and thinking of imitating.
But the potential difficulty in this part of the ideological and political development is that many students who are not interested in sports like the sports stars becau they watch their entertainment activities, for example, many students like Tian Liang becau they saw Where Are We Going, Dad? and think that being a star can make a lot of money and lead a colorful life. Many students have this “Horizon of expectation”, if allowed to develop, students may slip into the money worship and entertainment first quagmire. In view of this situation, the teacher can u “Picture teaching method”, borrow the rich resources on the internet, and introduce the athlete’s daily training show什么意思

Leading students to explore the deeper caus of their own situations and situations, Tian Liang’s strong physique and steadfast attitude of valor and hard work as a long-time athlete gave them the greatest n of curity. With authentic pictures and videos and earnest classroom discussions, students are led to realize that it is never money that can earn them respect, but rather a great personality. In view of the students’specific psychological state, a variety of teaching methods are integrated to promote the students’ (readers’) “Horizon of expectation”, which will be conducive to the students’“Acceptance” of ideological and political content (works).
