Let's have a Rainbow Search! Hongkou District launches a youth cultural passport check-in activity
In order to further tap into the resource endowment of the "cultural three places" in Hongkou and enable red venues and cultural landmarks to play an important role in ideological and political education, on September 9th, the Propaganda Department of Hongkou District Committee, together with the District Civilization Office, Youth League Committee, District Education Bureau, District Youth Work Committee, District Cultural and Tourism Bureau, and relevant venues, jointly launched the "Rainbow" Color Search - Youth Cultural Passport Check in Activity, exploring a new path of "Great Ideological and Political Course" education with Hongkou characteristics.
In recent years, Hongkou has launched 12 "Great Ideological and Political Course" learning experience routes, compiled and published the "Hongkou Great Ideological and Political Course Learning Guide", launched 106 "Great Ideological and Political Course" points, and taught thousands of ideological and political courses every year, forming a strong atmosphere of "everywhere is a classroom, everyone is a lecturer", fully playing the educational and guiding role of red culture in enlightening, nourishing the heart, and cultivating people.
It is reported that the "Rainbow" Color Search - Hongkou District Youth Cultural Passport Check in Activity has been included in the "Red Scarf Medal" medal competition activity, which is carried out in three stages of five years. In terms of form, it emphasizes immersion, experiential and targeted, guiding children to establish correct worldviews, values and outlook on life through five years of cultural immersion, and becoming a new generation with cultural cultivation and social responsibility in a silent and nourishing way. In terms of curriculum arrangement, emphasis is placed on meeting the age characteristics of children and adolescents, focusing on orderly connections between stages, and forming an integrated and progressive ideological and political curriculum system.
The event aims to organize youth to visit key educational bases, red venues, and former residences of celebrities, in order to personally experience the weight of history and the charm of culture. The route starts from the Memorial Hall of the Fourth National Congress of the Communist Party of China, passes through key cultural venues in the area such as the Shanghai Lu Xun Memorial Hall, the Shanghai Jewish Refugee Memorial Hall, the Shanghai Postal Museum, the Duolun Art Museum, and the New Era Civilization Practice Center, and ends at the World Visiting Hall of "Looking at China from the World". The focus is on carrying out cultural activities through check-in, aiming to enlighten and enlighten nearly 5000 new students in the first grade of 2023 primary schools in the entire district, and to do a good job in "cultural enlightenment".
Based on the growth characteristics of young people, the follow-up activities will further expand the scope of check-in venues, including the Shanghai Literature Museum, Shanghai Securities Museum, Garbage Sorting Science Popularization Museum, 1927 Lu Xun and Neishan Bookstore, Chen Yun 1925 Bookstore, Jinchao Lane 8, Shen Yinmo's Former Residence, Zhu Qizhan Art Museum, and more cultural venues into the humanistic passport. At the same time, we will further carry out diverse cultural activities, invite experts and scholars to give themed lectures, interpret the historical significance and rich connotations of Hongkou culture, and guide students to think deeply. The activity will also organize students to participate in traditional cultural experiences, such as calligraphy, painting, woodblock prints, etc., to cultivate young people's aesthetic taste and cultural confidence.
The relevant person in charge of the Propaganda Department of Hongkou District Committee stated that the first grade of primary school is the most important stage of enlightenment in a person's life. The ideological education received during this period plays an immeasurable role in the formation of their future worldview, values, and outlook on life. In order to guide children to become new generations with cultural cultivation and a sense of social responsibility, the "Rainbow" Color Search Activity focuses on the age characteristics of children, focusing on orderly connections between school stages, and forming a 5-year three-stage activity arrangement. Ideological and political education covers all grades of primary school.
After teenagers gain a deep understanding of the profound cultural heritage carried by Hongkou, the activity will fully showcase their learning achievements in exploring the rich cultural resources of Hongkou through painting, speeches, writing competitions, and other means. At the same time, encourage students to actively participate in social volunteer services, carry out volunteer lectures and other activities in various cultural venues, cultivate a sense of social responsibility, and practice socialist core values.
The relevant person in charge of the Education Bureau of Hongkou District stated that in accordance with the requirements of the district committee to "teach comprehensive ideological and political courses", the Hongjiao system will not only focus on the main battlefield of the classroom, but also promote students to move from small classrooms on campus to large classrooms in society. The "Walking Rainbow Course" will be closely combined with the 12 cultural landmarks of check-in activities, continuously promoting deep links and cooperation among the "three links" inside and outside the classroom, inside and outside the school, and online and offline, gradually forming a "comprehensive ideological and political course" with rich connotations, diverse forms, and wide coverage.
