Study on Practical Pathways for Teaching Innovation in Ideological and Political Education in Higher Education Institutions within the Converged Media Environment

The deep integration of converged media technology is reconstructing the teaching ecology of ideological and political education in higher education institutions. This study aims to explore practical pathways for teaching innovation in this context. The paper first analyzes core challenges arising from the evolution of the media ecosystem, including the reconstruction of the teaching context, cognitive differences in intersubjectivity, and the tension with traditional teaching models. Subsequently, it elucidates, from a theoretical dimension, the construction of a mediated teaching field, the integrative mechanism of content narration and meaning production, as well as the embedded logic linking knowledge transmission and value guidance. Finally, the research proposes systematic innovative pathways involving the construction of a multimodal content system, the design of interactive teaching processes, and the adjustment of teaching effectiveness evaluation. This study attempts to provide a structured theoretical framework and pathway reference for breaking through traditional teaching dilemmas and realizing the adaptive transformation of the educational function of ideological and political courses in the era of converged media.
