Abstract

With the accelerated development of new quality productive forces, new requirements have been placed on the content, objectives, and approaches of ideological and political education in universities. Accordingly, the educational value of red culture needs to be further explored in line with contemporary needs. Against this background, this paper examines the integration of red culture into ideological and political education in universities under the guidance of cultivating new quality productive forces. Based on an analysis of the transformation requirements and educational significance, specific approaches are proposed in terms of the selection and instructional transformation of red culture resources, the development of an integrated curriculum system, the establishment of practical education platforms, and the improvement of collaborative support mechanisms. The study aims to provide a reference for cultivating high-quality talents with innovative awareness, practical competence, and a strong sense of responsibility.
