(A) the meaning of life education

Is life education to guide individuals to understand, comprehend and practice? Respect life, love yourself and love other people's lives? Our value activities not only help individuals grow physically and mentally, but also actively guide individuals to turn their inner values into practical actions, so that individuals can respect and affirm life and achieve the goal of self-realization and caring for mankind. Life education includes three levels:? First, on the cognitive level, we should know and understand the meaning and value of the body and life, be familiar with the law of getting along with others, and know how to cherish the lives of ourselves and others. Second, at the practical level, individuals should not only have the knowledge and ability to safeguard their own lives and those of others, but also be able to truly perform them, not despise or trample on themselves and others, and be responsible for their own actions.

(B) the necessity of life education for college students

In recent years, college students commit suicide frequently. It seems that college students have become a group with weak life consciousness and poor anti-frustration ability. University is a stage in which people are sensitive to the world and life. If the gap between your needs and reality is too big, you will have a negative attitude towards society and life. In addition, the immaturity of students' thoughts also makes them prone to some extreme behaviors. Objective At present, psychological counseling for college students is rarely put into practice. Students' psychological problems can not be solved in time, lack of communication and sorting out problems, and it is easy for them to do things that hurt themselves. To illustrate this problem, here are some examples:

On February 23rd, 2004, Ma Jiajue, a student of Yunnan University, brutally murdered four students.

On the evening of October 28th, 2008/kloc-0, at 65438, Fu, a senior student in the School of Politics and Public Administration of China University of Political Science and Law, entered the classroom of the college with a knife, and chopped Cheng Chunming, a teacher who was preparing lessons, and died.

Tragedy happened one after another, warning people that it is urgent to carry out life education for college students. The materialism of modern society and the complexity of social environment make some college students tend to pursue fame and fortune in values and show extreme indifference to other people's lives. Therefore, in the process of ideological and political education of college students, we must strengthen the guidance of college students' life values, so that they can adjust their mentality and better adapt to the development of modern society. The university period is a crucial period for the formation of college students' world outlook, outlook on life and values. Colleges and universities should carry out life education for college students, cultivate their concept of cherishing life, and enhance their sense of social responsibility and confidence in life.

The existence of human life and its activities of creating history are always carried out under the guidance of certain life values. Value is not the external material of human beings, but the life itself. The value of human life lies in the growth and development of human life. Education is to help people know, discover, pursue and realize their own life value.

Russell said: Three passions, very simple and very strong, have dominated my life, namely, the longing for love, the pursuit of knowledge and deep-rooted sympathy for human suffering. ? [3] Life education is to guide students to get rid of the excessive pursuit of material desires, integrate into nature and society, cultivate students' broad compassion, and be an ideal and moral person.

For college students, learning interpersonal communication is not only the need of college life, but also the subject of lifelong development. Interpersonal education of life education aims to help college students get normal communication with the people around them, and generate a sense of security, trust and trust. This requires life education to pay attention to college students' accurate understanding of themselves and others in their communication with others, and to guide students to exchange ideas, vent their emotions and deal with contradictions and conflicts in interpersonal relationships with an open mind and a rational way.

Third, how to carry out life education for college students.

To carry out college students' life education and apply it to college students' ideological and political education, we must actively guide college students to establish a scientific outlook on life, infiltrate the content of life education into ideological and political theory courses, and strive to create a harmonious environment for college students' life education.

In the teaching process, teachers should pay attention to guiding students to cherish life in combination with real life events. In the Wenchuan earthquake in 2008 and the Yushu earthquake in 20 10, we saw the fragility of life in the face of disasters, and at the same time realized how important it is to cherish our own life and the life we have. ? Yushu earthquake is the ultimate event of life destruction, which teaches people to cherish and treat life well, not only their own lives, but also the lives of others. ? [4]

[5]

College students' life education needs to create a harmonious social, school and family environment. What we are pursuing is a legal society with fair competition. Students should not only learn scientific and cultural knowledge, but also have a harmonious and friendly space to meet the needs of social development. [6] In the process of life education, we should strive to coordinate the inconsistent factors among society, schools and families, and achieve harmony and unity in the process of constant adjustment, so that college students can cherish their own lives and those of others and constantly improve their own lives.
