- Abstract
Ideology in politics has gained increasing attention in higher education in China. Lecturers with different backgrounds have been exploring the education of political ideology in their courses at Chinese universities. However, instructors, especially those majoring in nonpolitical majors, such as science, technology, math, and engineering, have found it challenging to collect appropriate ideological resources for their courses. The purpose of this study is to facilitate the education of ideology for higher education faculty by designing a cloud-based collaborative political ideology resource platform. With the platform, ideological and political teachers can create and share historical events or stories for ideology education, and other teachers can search for and use appropriate resources in their courses. The platform displays the times of the cited resources and allows teachers to comment on their referenced materials. To test the usability of the system, two political instructors were invited to create a story, respectively, and another teacher to reuse the resource on the platform. The results showed that ideological instructional resources created by political teachers can be easily shared among instructors. The same objective of ideological education connects political ideology teachers with instructors in other disciplines effectively. Although the platform promoted and facilitated the lecturing of political ideologies in universities, the validation of the system needs further investigation based on user feedback. Currently, very few teachers use the system for political ideology education. Therefore, we will invite more instructors from different disciplines to participate in the collaborative platform.
