Drawing on Zhang Zhidong’s ancient wisdom of “Chinese-style Westernization”, although the historical background is vastly different, the combination of tradition and technology still exhibits strong vitality and unique value in promoting the inheritance and revival of ethnic culture. This combination not only reflects a keen insight into and active response to real-world problems but also highlights a pragmatic spirit in practical exploration, which is particularly crucial for Guangzhou universities’ exploration in the field of folk art education.</p> Ruiji Shengchuan Copyright (c) 2024 Author(s) https://ojs.bbwpublisher.com/index.php/IEF/article/view/8568 Wed, 13 Nov 2024 00:00:00 +0800 Intertwining of History and Reality: An Exploration of the Creation of Wang Yingsheng’s “The Return of Hong Kong” https://ojs.bbwpublisher.com/index.php/IEF/article/view/8715 <p>This article aims to delve into the background, process, artistic techniques, and cultural significance and social impact of Wang Yingsheng’s important artistic work “The Return of Hong Kong.” Through an analysis of Wang Yingsheng’s artistic style, combined with a detailed interpretation of “The Return of Hong Kong”, this article reveals how Wang Yingsheng integrated his personal artistic pursuits with significant historical events to create a work that is both characteristic of the times and full of artistic appeal.

However, with the increasing demands of medical education, the limitations of traditional educational models have gradually emerged, somewhat restricting the formation of correct values among postgraduate students in basic medical sciences. The spirit of the Great Northern Wilderness, as a crucial component of the Chinese Communist Party’s spiritual lineage, has now become a significant ideological and political element in modern teaching. By incorporating the spirit of the Great Northern Wilderness as an ideological and political element, teachers are encouraged to foster the spirit of hard work, courageous exploration, overall consideration, and selfless dedication among postgraduate students in basic medical sciences through improvements in classroom teaching methods, specialized teaching content, and situational teaching experiences. By integrating the ideological and political elements of the Great Northern Wilderness spirit into talent cultivation goals, requirements, and curriculum system construction during the training of postgraduate students in basic medical sciences at Jiamusi University, the aim is to cultivate students who can carry the spirit of hard work and courageous exploration into their future workplaces.</p> Baixin Wang, Lumeng Wang, Rongrong Ye, Jiamei Wu, Xiaomeng Zhang, Junfei Dai, Lei Liu Copyright (c) 2024 Author(s) https://ojs.bbwpublisher.com/index.php/IEF/article/view/8716 Wed, 13 Nov 2024 00:00:00 +0800 Research on the Integration and Innovation Development of College Physical Education and Aesthetic Curriculum under the Background of Digital Transformation https://ojs.bbwpublisher.com/index.php/IEF/article/view/8871 <p>Under the background of “five education integration,” the integration of sports and aesthetic education in colleges and universities not only meets the requirements of education reform but also is an important fitting point to cultivate students’ comprehensive quality and promote the development of students’ physical and mental health.

As globalization intensifies, the demand for skilled English speakers is growing, further amplifying the significance of effective English language education. In this landscape, code-switching—often perceived negatively in traditional linguistic frameworks—emerges as a powerful pedagogical tool that can promote comprehension, engagement, and overall proficiency among students. This study delves into the theoretical underpinnings of code-switching, examining its roots in sociolinguistics and its implications for language acquisition. Specifically, it highlights how strategic code-switching allows educators to bridge the gap between students’ native languages and the target language, fostering a richer, more inclusive learning environment. Through an empirical of classroom practices, the paper captures diverse stakeholder responses, including students’ perceptions of code-switching as a supportive mechanism in their learning process and educators’ attitudes towards its integration into teaching methodologies. Furthermore, the study discusses the practical applications of code-switching strategies, offering insights into how educators can effectively implement these techniques to improve instructional effectiveness and student outcomes. The findings underscore the need for professional development programs that equip teachers with the skills to utilize code-switching strategically, thus paving the way for a more culturally responsive pedagogy. By addressing both theoretical and practical dimensions, this paper aims to enrich the understanding of code-switching in English language teaching and advocate for its recognized value as an essential component of modern pedagogical practices.</p> Ruisen Lin Copyright (c) 2024 Author(s) https://ojs.bbwpublisher.com/index.php/IEF/article/view/8964 Wed, 13 Nov 2024 00:00:00 +0800 Analysis of the Design of Children’s Playgrounds in Urban Communities under the Concept of Nature Education https://ojs.bbwpublisher.com/index.php/IEF/article/view/8965 <p>The article focuses on the design of children’s playgrounds in urban communities. The study points out that urbanization has led to “nature-deficit disorder” among children and the squeezing of playgrounds.
