1, the international and domestic situation has undergone profound changes, so it is urgent to strengthen ideological and political education for college students. At present, the international situation tends to ease, the single-level political structure dominated by one or two superpowers is gradually moving towards multipolarization, international economic ties and cooperation are getting closer and closer, and the trend of globalization is unstoppable, but the world is still not peaceful. After the cold war, hegemonism and power politics have made new progress. In order to realize their political intentions and economic interests, some western developed countries, led by the United States, have been sparing no effort to launch various offensives against China and implement "Westernization" and "Differentiation" through various means. The attempt to overthrow the leadership of China and the socialist system of China is also the main manifestation of the long-standing class struggle in our country. In China, people's thoughts are very active because of the increasingly diversified socio-economic components, organizational forms, material interests and employment methods. In the process of market economy development, the situation affects some people's liberalism, money worship and egoism, and all kinds of decadent and backward ideology and culture challenge Marxism, so it is inevitable that there will be multiple value orientations, forming a situation in which correct ideas and wrong ideas are intertwined. In this case, it is urgent to use ideological and political work to help the masses distinguish right from wrong, solve problems and grasp the correct direction of progress.

Talents trained by colleges and universities are a very important group in the future society, and they are the strategic focus of westernization and differentiation in western countries. The level of college students' ideological and political education is of great significance to improving national quality and enhancing national cohesion. How to cultivate contemporary college students into promising young people with firm political stance and advanced ideas and beliefs is a long-term strategic task of quality education in colleges and universities, and also the fundamental task of ideological and political education for college students. 2. With the deepening of educational reform and development, colleges and universities urgently need to strengthen ideological and political education for college students. Since the 17th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, the strategy of rejuvenating the country through science and education has been implemented steadily, and the reform and development of higher education has presented a new situation. Due to the new trend of international and domestic economic development, higher education has received extensive attention and support. The implementation of relevant national education policies provides rare opportunities and good external conditions for the reform and development of colleges and universities. In this case, ideological and political education in colleges and universities is more prominent and important, and it is imperative to actively explore and strengthen ideological and political education for college students. Doing a good job in ideological and political education of college students and actively guiding them to establish a correct outlook on life, values and world outlook have become the primary task and work of college educators.

2. Facing the new era, adapt to the new situation, and strive to do a good job in ideological and political education for college students.

At present, ideological and political work in schools should take "Theory of Three Represents" as the general guiding ideology, earnestly study Mao Zedong Thought, hold high the great banner of Deng Xiaoping Theory, carry out the spirit of Comrade Jiang Zemin's important speech at the Central Conference on Ideological and Political Work, actively practice Scientific Outlook on Development proposed by General Secretary Hu Jintao, and do a good job in ideological and political education for college students. 1, according to the requirements of "Theory of Three Represents", and strive to strengthen the ideological and political education of college students.

Comrade Jiang Zemin has repeatedly stressed that "as long as we always become the development requirements of China's advanced productive forces, the orientation of China's advanced culture and the loyal representatives of the interests of the overwhelming majority of the people in China, our party will always be in an invincible position, always win the loyal support of the people of all ethnic groups throughout the country and lead the people to keep moving forward." This important thought is an incisive conclusion made by Comrade Jiang Zemin at the turn of the century, under the complicated domestic and international situation, standing at the historical height of the development of the times, and deeply thinking about how to keep the foreign party full of vitality. The important exposition of "Theory of Three Represents" profoundly reveals the foundation of our party's founding, ruling and strength. It points out the direction for us to strengthen and improve ideological rectification education and is the primary task of ideological and political work at present and in the future.

2. Insist on arming people with scientific theories, and occupy ideological education positions in colleges and universities with Mao Zedong Thought, Deng Xiaoping Theory and Theory of Three Represents.

Colleges and universities are the base for training socialist builders and successors, and the important position for the construction of socialist spiritual civilization. We must occupy the ideological position of the school with Marxism. Over the years, some thoughts and remarks that run counter to Marxism and socialism have appeared from time to time, some openly advocate total westernization, politically focus on western multi-party system and parliamentary democracy, economically subject and westernize, ideologically and culturally, the subject cancels the guiding position of Marxism, and advocates extreme individualism in values. These erroneous ideas will inevitably have some negative effects on teachers and students in colleges and universities, and make some young teachers and students have a vague understanding of some deep-seated basic theoretical problems. Although these erroneous ideas are stuck, they must be paid attention to and cannot be allowed to breed, spread and develop. The most important task of ideological and political work in schools is to establish a sense of position, resolutely resist all kinds of erroneous ideas and decadent cultural erosion, consciously occupy the classroom with Marxism, and cultivate college students' positive outlook on life, values and world outlook.

The most important thing in school ideological and political education is to uphold and consolidate the guiding position of Marxism in the ideological field of teachers and students, that is, to arm teachers and students with Mao Zedong Thought, Deng Xiaoping Theory and Theory of Three Represents, to occupy the ideological position of the school with Marxism–Leninism, and to guide teachers and students to consciously overcome and resist the influence and erosion of wrong, backward and decadent ideas.

Armed contemporary college students with Mao Zedong Thought, Deng Xiaoping Theory and Theory of Three Represents is an important part of ideological and political education and a basic project to improve college students' ideological and political quality. At present, to do this work well, we should start from the following three aspects. First, strengthen the construction of teachers in Deng Xiaoping Theory, improve the overall quality of the team, select a group of teachers to study for master's degrees, and transfer a group of teachers with high professional titles and high academic qualifications to teach in our college. The second is to organize teachers and students to go to the front line of reform and opening up in various forms, and to make social visits at the grassroots level to understand the national conditions and let them know the great achievements made since the reform and opening up and the great strength produced by Deng Xiaoping Theory. Let teachers and students know all kinds of contradictions, difficulties and problems we encounter in our progress, and understand how the party and the government solve these problems. Third, strengthen the education of ideals and beliefs as the core content of ideological and political education in colleges and universities. At present, we should persist in starting from the primary stage of socialism and starting from the reality of teachers and students, vigorously carry out patriotism education, collectivism education and socialist education, guide teachers and students to correctly understand the fundamental interests of the country and themselves, establish a correct world outlook, outlook on life and values, integrate personal ideals into the common ideals of the people, integrate personal struggles into the struggle for the socialist modernization of the motherland, strengthen Marxist beliefs, and enhance confidence in reform, opening up and modernization. Only in this way can the party's educational principles and policies be implemented and the ideological and political education of college students be in an invincible position forever.
