The Significance of Life Practice Education
College students' participation in social practice activities can promote their understanding of society, improve their own understanding of the current situation of economic and social development, achieve a better combination of book knowledge and practical knowledge, and help them establish a correct world outlook, outlook on life and values. Only by grasping the problems existing in the current social practice of college students can we give full play to the role of social practice in the ideological and political education of college students. Colleges and universities undertake the sacred mission of cultivating talents, imparting knowledge and serving the society. China is in the process of perfecting the socialist market economic system, building a well-off society in an all-round way, and striving to practice Theory of Three Represents's new era, great era and great cause, which requires the younger generation to have good ideological and moral quality and strong practical ability. To cultivate such talents, on the one hand, we should pay attention to the study and mastery of book knowledge during college, so as to lay the necessary knowledge foundation for the future society and service; On the other hand, it is necessary to strengthen the social practice of college students, through social activities, let college students undergo exercise, increase their talents, and realize the organic unity of knowledge and practice. Social practice plays an important role in the growth of college students, and people pay more and more attention to it. Social practice is conducive to expanding the benefits of ideological and political education and to the combination of political theory education and practical education. As far as the purpose of social practice is concerned, what we hope is the active participation of all students, so that students can be educated and improved from different angles and levels. Social practice activities have achieved this goal, which is not only convenient for school organizations to expand benefits, but also rigorous in activities; Easy to arrange and check; Both unity and flexibility; There are both universality and hierarchy. Social practice activities have solved a problem that schools often encounter in the process of carrying out ideological and political education: students are also willing to participate in some effective educational activities, but due to various conditions, the number of participants is often small, resulting in a considerable number of students staying outside the activity circle. The solution of this problem has greatly expanded the benefit of students as the main body of social practice activities. At the same time, through the development of social practice activities, students can go deep into the grassroots, understand the national conditions, observe the people's feelings, analyze the real needs of society, find out their own shortcomings, promote the teaching of "two courses" in colleges and universities, greatly improve the teaching effect of "two courses" and solve the theoretical problems existing in the teaching of "two courses" well. The combination of theory and practice is helpful for students to understand the theory, improve their understanding that China is in the primary stage of socialism and will be in it for a long time, thus helping young students to firmly establish their belief in Socialism with Chinese characteristics Road. Social practice activities are conducive to the growth of young students and also to their own success. After the Third Plenary Session of the Eleventh Central Committee of the Communist Party of China, young students' participation in social practice has experienced a development process from single to multi-dimensional, from passive participation to active participation, from quantitative change to qualitative change. At present, "learning from society, helping the poor, serving the society and becoming a successful person through practice" has become the conscious action of most young students. During holidays, young students go out of campus to rural areas, factories, mines, schools, military camps and shops, take society as the classroom and practice as the teaching material, and devote themselves to social practice to receive education and exercise, so as to continuously improve their ability to understand and solve practical problems. Social practice activities have increasingly become the needs of young students to become talents, and they are highly valued by students. Social practice helps young students to understand many problems and contradictions in real society. With the development of socialist modernization and the deepening of reform and opening up, many new problems and contradictions have emerged while great achievements have been made. How to understand and solve these new problems and contradictions has always been a difficult problem in the process of students' ideological and political education, such as graduation and employment involving students' vital interests. At present, with the establishment and development of the socialist market economic system, college graduates have gradually shifted from the planned distribution mode of all-inclusive distribution in the past to the mode that most students choose their own jobs within a certain range under the guidance of national employment policies. This way of choosing a job leads to the complex mentality and ambivalence of college students. On the one hand, it has realized the transformation from "obeying the needs of the country" to "respecting individual voluntariness" and "obeying the needs of the country", which is highly praised and welcomed by students; On the other hand, some students are at a loss because of the imperfect talent market mechanism and competition rules. As a result, some schools have appeared extreme social views to varying degrees. It is difficult to solve the gap between these radical understandings and ideals and reality only by relying on the education and guidance on campus. However, the school can organize young students to carry out social practice activities in a targeted way, so that young students can understand and understand the national conditions, the employment situation and the needs of the society for graduates, and establish a correct concept of choosing a job in light of their own reality, so as to realize the organic combination of individual volunteering and the needs of the motherland. Social practice, as a means and form of self-education for young students, helps to understand and solve problems and contradictions, and is an effective way for schools to strengthen and improve ideological and political education for graduates.
