In early January, Chen Aiguo, director of the People's Armed Forces Department of Hongqi District, Xinxiang City, stepped into the school gate of Henan University of Science and Technology while walking in the snow. His national defense education class "Let the pen tip turn into a loaded bullet" ignited the enthusiasm of students to participate in military service registration and shoulder the national defense mission.
The campus sword is drawn from the sharpening blade in the school field. Minister Chen's lesson attracted praise, which was closely related to the polishing of the Thousand-People Outstanding Teachers of National Defense Education at the end of last year.
Although there is no smoke of gunpowder, it is also thrilling. The classroom storm that swept across the journalist’s school campus, Guanlan, recorded the sonorous steps and gratifying trajectory of national defense education towards a new era from three dimensions: teachers, lesson plans and classrooms.
Please pay attention to the report of the People's Liberation Army Daily published today:

See how the national defense education classroom set off an ideological storm
——Henan Provincial National Defense Education Outstanding Teacher Competition School of National Defense Education Guanlan
■ Xia Yu Gu Weifeng Special correspondent of the People's Liberation Army Daily Wei Lianjun
Central Plains The first snow in 2018 came earlier than in previous years.
In the snow, the new year's military service registration publicity has also quietly started.
teacher’s question: How many people can you make your blood boil?
Spiritual highland calls on national defense firefighters
One piece of paper stirs up a thousand layers of waves.
Just after the National Day in 2017, the Henan Provincial Defense Education Office issued a notice that, led by the Political Work Bureau of the Provincial Military Region, organized a competition for outstanding teachers of national defense education for the first time, requiring extensive participation from the provincial military region, the provincial military region, the leaders of the People's Armed Forces Department, grassroots armed officers of township and street offices, and college counselors, and selected layer by layer according to the three stages of county selection, city preliminaries and provincial finals. This battle, both in form and in scale, is rare in history.
Unexpectedly, after the "Hero Post" was issued, some units did not respond and few responded. "Military training competition is natural. Is it necessary to take a big test for national defense education?" Some people complained, while others were puzzled. A county people's armed forces political commissar even disagreed: "More than ten years ago, we were an excellent political teacher of the 'Four Society' and could not be a good teacher of national defense education?"
However, when he went to a university for trial lectures with confidence, he encountered an embarrassing scene: the stage was passionate and the stage was busy "surfing" off the stage. He talked about mission, dedication and responsibility, but the students browsed WeChat and played mobile games. After
class, he asked the students puzzledly: "What kind of national defense teacher do you like?"
A student bluntly said: "Teachers should not preach stereotypedly to others, they should make people excited!"
teacher is the foundation of education and the source of education. The leaders of the provincial military region expressed their original intentions and proposed in the report of the 19th National Congress of the Communist Party of China to strengthen national defense education for the whole nation. However, for a long time, the national defense education team has lacked talents, weakened professional qualities, and insufficient infectiousness and penetration. A questionnaire survey of 200 college students and cadres in party and government organs by the Henan Provincial Defense Education Office showed that the satisfaction with national defense education teaching was less than 70%.
The spiritual high ground cannot be without the "fire-spreader". Xue Zhenxi, deputy commander of Zhoukou Military Sub-district, is the highest-ranking, oldest and most enthusiastic contestant. His lesson "The "Picture" says about troubles - Analysis and Thoughts on "Hotspots" of National Security" uses a large number of maps to discuss the general trend of the world and win a lot of prizes. Deputy Commander Xue’s biggest hobby is to study maps. The official bag always has "three treasures": map album, magnifying glass and red and blue pencils. Over the past three years, he has taught more than 30 classes to local party and government organs and colleges, and has 120,000 directly educated personnel, with many military fans.
The veteran will never grow old; the rookie will be the only one who will be the first to be a rookie. After joining the army, Zhu Chaofan, an officer of the armed armed department in Yangzu Town, Xiping County, gave a wonderful recruitment class on recruitment due to his extra points policy.Zeng Yanmin, a researcher of the lecturer team of the Henan Provincial Party Committee Propaganda Department who served as the final judge, commented: "Such 'soldiers talk about military affairs' is very friendly and convincing!"
did not force him to Liangshan, so how could he win the game? Looking back on the more than two months of battle journey, Wu Sheng, the political commissar of the People's Armed Forces Department of Fengquan District, Xinxiang City, sighed a lot: "It is not a skill competition, but a job training; it is not a personal competition, but a group battle."
Those who give people sparks must have a torch. In order to improve the professional quality of the contestants, Zhengzhou, Xinxiang, , Shangqiu , and Kaifeng audition-style soldiers and closed training camps were invited to teach the essence of theory and teach the lesson skills, and radio and television programs hosted the Mandarin.
business competition Wu Mingjin has withdrawn, and his ability has just begun to improve. 12 provincial outstanding teachers, 10 high-quality courses, and 140 municipal outstanding teachers stood out from more than a thousand contestants, tempered a team of national defense education teachers, created a batch of high-quality lesson plans, and formed a group of outstanding lecturers and expert databases, making it a trend to love studying national defense education.
lesson plan question: Is there a class that makes you cry?
Heart-strengthening project urgently needs a heart-wrenching course
Plato said: "Whoever can tell stories will have the world."
"Yongshu Reef radar technician Qin Renping guarded the reef for half a year, and the supply ship brought two letters from his home. His wife's February letter said affectionately: I hope for your letter every day, and if you have time, you can write a few more letters, asking me to read and think slowly... My father's April letter was opened, but it was a clear sky: my wife has died of liver cancer."
From the deputy chief of staff of a garrison force in the Nansha Navy to Chang Zhiyong, who served as minister of the People's Armed Forces Department of Suiyang District, Shangqiu City, told the story of his comrades standing by the islands and reefs that touched the world and soul-stirring.
Liu Weiguo, the father of Liu Yan, the staff officer of the Provincial Military Region Support Bureau, was once the direct leader of the reconnaissance section of a division during border operations and the "one-armed hero" Ding Xiaobing. Liu Yan talks about the passionate years of his father's generation around the new era's heroic view and won the first prize in the final. He said that he can't be a hero, but he must flow with the passion of a hero! The speaker shed tears, and the listener was moved.
In comparison, a few classes are calm and have mediocre reactions. Li Guoyou, a judge of the competition and professor at the Party School of Henan Provincial Party Committee, gave a sharp comment on the spot: Some have unique perspectives on topics, but they are like academic articles; some have touching examples, but they are like deeds reports; some are educated to young students, but the traces of political education in the army are too strong; some are meticulous, but they are more like the speech of leaders.
is not worried on the stage, but is distracted from the stage. Shan Yongzhi, an officer and counselor of the Armed Department of Henan Normal University who has been engaged in national defense education in colleges and universities for a long time, told reporters: In the "photo reading era" of information fragmentation, content is still king. National defense education with the reputation of a heart-boosting project urgently needs careful courses.
reporter traveled through many competition venues in the Central Plains, and there were many fine works that reached the hearts of the people. However, after reading more than 80 lesson plans, the "five more and five less" problem is still worth paying attention to: more abstract summary, less teaching according to people; more inspiring and calling, less touching ideas; more clichés, less novel and fresh; more mechanized production, less hand polishing; more copy-paste "porters", and fewer "producers" with thoughts and quality.
reporter saw at the finals that a jury composed of the provincial party committee propaganda department, the provincial party school, the garrison academies and various division-level units each had a copy of the "Quality Lesson Plan Scoring Rules" and set up 5 major and 17 minor items scoring standards, of which the score of the lesson plan content accounted for 70%. The leaders of the military region of the province introduced that the purpose of this refinement is to establish a clear direction of sing the main theme and promote positive energy.
The podium classroom is over, and soul-shaping and educating people will never end. In order to turn personal wisdom into common wealth, they have gathered a hundred excellent lesson plans into a book. The reporter saw that in this "container", there are both global hot spots and reform and strengthening the military; there is both the era strategy of in-depth development of military-civilian integration, and the mission pursuit of the main business and main responsibilities of national defense mobilization; there are both national security interests from a broad perspective, as well as national defense topics in life, with all-encompassing topics and extensive research.Professor Pang Zhimin from the Zhengzhou Campus of the Army Artillery and Air Defense College, who participated in the editing, said: "There is always one that makes you cry in such a rich spiritual feast!"
National Defense Education Class is to melt the spirit into the soul, penetrate the value into the mind, inject worry into the bone marrow, and convey responsibility into the mind. You cannot trust the horse and open the mouth. At present, they are exploring the system for qualified lesson plan review. Before entering the classroom forum for national defense education classes, they must be certified by the military and local governments; organize research on projects and compile targeted lesson plans; establish lesson plan resource databases, and realize the sharing of national defense education information in the province.
classroom question: Where can I place the national defense education desk in the new era?
Create a Baijia Forum that will never be dismissed
College podium becomes a competition arena.
In the preliminary competition for national defense education teachers organized by Luoyang Military Sub-district, 12 contestants were drawn to Henan University of Science and Technology , Luoyang Institute of Technology and Luoyang Municipal Party School. More than 3,000 young students and party and government cadres became public judges.
Songxian County Armed Minister Li Jinduo is a master's student who graduated from the Department of Party History of the Communist Party of China at Yunnan University. His class uses videos, animation and other trendy means to promote the spirit of martial arts in both pictures and texts, attracting countless fans. He said with emotion: "Only when our national defense desks are moved into the hearts of students, national defense education can have weight!"
Xinxiang National Defense Education Office, which has long explored a new path to national defense education in colleges and universities, summarized the "three difficulties": the information society is coming from all directions, and it is difficult to cultivate the feelings of the country; the national defense education has serious and upright faces, diverse audience personalities, and it is difficult to accept it actively; the young generation has strong independent thinking and rebellious psychology, and it is difficult to recognize emotionally. Hu Weizheng, political commissar of Xinxiang Military Sub-district, said: "On the surface, it is a problem of occupying the real space, but in essence it is a major event of occupying the ideological position."
Where the focus of the young generation is, the national defense desk should be moved. Henan National Defense Education Network, "Central Plains National Defense" TV column, military network TV station, official Weibo, and WeChat official account are the "five horses" for the province to carry out national defense education. During the competition, they will publish and broadcast the selected high-quality courses one after another, with an education coverage of more than 100,000 people.
left school and entered the classroom again. Yang Laibin, a military theory teacher at Henan Institute of Technology, moved the national defense education class in the martial arts competition to the three-foot podium, "What can my major do for the army to win battles?" 》The students were excited. He said: "National defense education only has graduated students, no teachers who have been dismissed, and classes on holiday."
The provincial national defense education office promoted the extension and expansion of national defense education classes, including theoretical study of party and government departments, party school training, business study and cultural activities of enterprises and institutions, community villages and social moral forums, and public welfare knowledge propaganda. Zhu Xiaofeng, the first prize winner of the final and political commissar of the People's Armed Forces Department of Lankao County, Kaifeng City, gave a lecture on "Guide to the rise and fall of Bianliang, and learn from history to strengthen national defense" and listed the lessons of the Northern Song Dynasty's light military defeat, calling for the martial spirit of the peaceful era, and touching the hearts of many people. Many universities in Kaifeng sent him invitations to give lectures.
National Defense Education Outstanding Teacher Competition, which inspires the "heat transfer" effect of loving the Party, the country, and the military, brings good political, social and military effects. On the eve of New Year's Day, the provincial military region used the results of the competition to organize 23 national defense education lecturers teams at all levels in the military and local governments to conduct in-depth lectures in universities and communities, creating a hundred forums that will never be dismissed.
Shangqiu City, in response to the problems of arbitrary national defense education organizations, scattered time and fragmented content, divided the education objects into three groups: leading cadres, school students and ordinary people, and divided the national defense education courses into 6 universities, 10 party schools and 560 primary and secondary schools in the city, and uniformly compiled and distributed national defense education textbooks; 40 national defense education counselors were hired from retired officers at the garrison, military academies and regiments above, and used micro-courses, MOOCs and other forms to open "National Defense Lecture Hall", "Palm Classroom" and "Online Classroom". More than 1,700 national defense education courses were launched at all levels, which enabled more than 1.2 million people to be educated and influenced.
Build the "Spiritual Great Wall" of the new era
■Hu Yongsheng
Precisely and look up at the heaven and earth, and look at the past and present.The 5,000-year history of China, recorded in writing, is filled with endless smoke of war, echoing the deafening and eternal warning: "Although the country is big, forgetting to fight will lead to danger!"
The world changes, and the wind and thunder change. President Xi cleared away the historical clouds and grasped the general trend of the times. In his report at the 19th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, he pointed out deeply: Our army is the people's army, and our national defense is the national defense of the whole nation. We must strengthen national defense education for the whole nation, consolidate the unity of the military, government, military and civilians, and gather strong strength to realize the Chinese dream and the dream of a strong military!
The soldiers are the pillars of the country; the people are the foundation of the country. National defense education is to melt the spirit into the soul, penetrate the value into the mind, inject worry into the bone marrow, and convey responsibility into the mind. This is the deepest spiritual heritage of the great nation and the deep driving force for promoting the development of national security.
Xi Jinping Thought on Socialism with Chinese Characteristics for a New Era leads China's path to great rejuvenation. As we strive forward in the new journey, we must be clear that at present, the connotation and extension of our country's national security are richer, the space-time field is broader, and the internal and external factors are more complex. Especially the surrounding security environment is severe, non-traditional security threats continue to spread, and the sword of Damocles of war is still hanging high above our heads.
Entering a new era, people's spiritual high ground is facing realistic and urgent tests: the values are diverse and diverse, ideological and cultural exchanges and confrontations, and ideological struggles are fierce and violent, especially the battle between soul-casting and soul-destroying, and the game of root-solidation and destruction is becoming increasingly complex. The "cultural Cold War" and "political genetic modification" projects of Western hostile forces have never stopped for a moment. The lessons of party fission and disintegration give people a painful warning: the more you face the winds of the complex world, the more you must build a solid spiritual dam to love the party, the country and the army, the more you must build an indestructible steel and iron bones, the more you must build an unbreakable force totem, and the more you must tighten the "safety valve" in the minds of the whole people.
Times change, the world will be different, and the world will be different, and the world will be different. The most fundamental thing about national defense education is to cultivate national defense and lay a value cornerstone for boosting national cohesion. What kind of high position should we stand on national defense education, what kind of thinking should we look at national defense education, and what measures should we do to do a good job in national defense education? It is related to what kind of national spirit we shape, what kind of national strength we gather, and what kind of future and direction we decide. At this time, we must keep in mind President Xi’s instructions and establish a general concept of national security and a great national defense; our vision and tentacles must be examined in the depth of the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation, think in the broad perspective of safeguarding and expanding national interests, and plan in the big blueprint for building the Chinese dream and a strong military dream.
A generation has its own mission, and each generation has its own responsibility. In the torrent of the times of national defense and military reform, national defense education has ushered in major historical development opportunities, but also faced considerations of the times brought by new situations and new problems. At present, national defense education has become a new function and new task of the national defense mobilization system. It requires taking the initiative, the main owners, and working together with local governments to gradually resolve institutional obstacles, structural contradictions and policy issues that affect and restrict the innovative development of national defense education, and promote this country and nation to strengthen the heart project in depth and practice.
The fortune of a country lies in the hearts of the people. A great era requires a great spirit. Under the guidance of Xi Jinping Thought on Socialism with Chinese Characteristics for a New Era, we must build a "spiritual Great Wall" where hundreds of millions of people are prepared for danger and work together, inspire the political enthusiasm of the whole society to care for and support national defense and military reform, arouse the great power and magnificent spirit of the entire nation to rise up self-reliance, and gather the tremendous power to realize the Chinese dream and the dream of a strong military.

The researcher of the lecturer team of the Henan Provincial Party Committee Propaganda Department: Before I transferred to work, I worked in the combat troops and the provincial military region system for more than 20 years. After I transferred to work, I also worked in the lecturer team of the Provincial Party Committee Propaganda Department for more than ten years. I have experienced many competitions, competitions and propaganda activities in the troops and localities, but this is the first time I participated in the national defense education teacher competition. This competition is of great significance to improving the professional quality of the national defense education team, using the national defense education classroom to educate, inspire, cultivate and shape people, and enhance penetration, communication and infectiousness. It is a method innovation and practical exploration towards a new era.

Xinxian People's Armed Forces Department Political Commissar Zhang Anwu: Xinxian is a Red Army County, with loyal souls on the mountain and heroes buried in the mountain. This red land itself is a national defense education classroom. Our cadres and staff of the People's Armed Forces Department are successors of the Red Army. Every time I go to local party and government organs and schools to give lectures, the red gene will always be the main color, and the martial spirit will always be the main theme. Especially after the provincial military region system was transferred, national defense education became the main responsibility and main business of the People's Armed Forces Department. The new generation of national defense mobilization personnel must first mobilize the people's spirit. Most leaders of the People's Armed Forces Department have rich experiences, broad vision and solid accumulation. Those who sit on the rostrum should take the lead in going to the podium and creating a strong atmosphere of national defense education.
Liu Qiaoyun, Director of the Armed Forces Department of Liangzhuang Township, Puyang County: I never dreamed that I, the most grassroots township armed forces minister, could walk all the way to the provincial arena, and also won the third prize of Outstanding National Defense Instructor and the High Quality Course Award. In the past, I always thought that national defense education was the affairs of the leaders above and the experts of colleges and universities. We grassroots cadres only listened from the audience, so it was difficult to speak on stage. Now I feel that our grassroots armed forces are at the forefront of spreading national defense knowledge to the masses, enhancing national defense concepts, and carrying out recruitment propaganda and organizing support for the military and family. It can be said that our job is a grassroots classroom for national defense education. This rare participation experience has taught me a lot: a small stage can achieve great things, and a small position can perform great things.

Henan University of Science and Technology School of Architecture Wei Mingyue: For us, the classroom is the most familiar place, and teachers are the most likely to cause aesthetic fatigue. But at the end of October last year, in the national defense education lecture organized by our school, the young township armed minister told us a lecture "Ignite youthfulness with the spirit of martial arts". Although the theme is solemn, the form is lively, the story is wonderful, and everyone is excited. In fact, we have also grown up with hero stories, and we all have a patriotic complex, it depends on how you ignite and inspire it.
