The Impact of Peer Effects on Teachers' Teaching Ability Enhancement in the Context of "Promoting Teaching Through Competition"
Against the backdrop of "promoting teaching through competitions," this paper explores the influence mechanism of peer effects on the enhancement of college teachers' teaching abilities. Based on social cognitive theory and social comparison theory, the study constructs a theoretical model incorporating cooperative peer effects, competitive peer effects, and self-efficacy, aiming to reveal how these two types of peer effects influence teachers' teaching abilities through the mediating role of self-efficacy. A questionnaire survey was conducted to collect 377 valid responses, and structural equation modeling was employed for data analysis. The results show that both cooperative and competitive peer effects significantly enhance teachers' self-efficacy and teaching abilities. Furthermore, self-efficacy plays a significant partial mediating role between both types of peer effects and teaching abilities, validating the "environment-cognition-ability" pathway. The study provides theoretical and practical foundations for optimizing competition designs and advancing teacher professional development, emphasizing the need to balance collaboration and competition in the process of "promoting teaching through competitions" and highlighting the cultivation of teachers' self-efficacy to achieve comprehensive improvement in teaching capabilities.

A Study on the Effectiveness of High School Mathematics Assignment Design in the Context of the “Three New” Initiatives——Taking the 2019 People's Education Press Edition A Textbook as an Example
With the comprehensive implementation of the “General High School Mathematics Curriculum Standards (2017 Edition, 2020 Revision),” China's high school mathematics education has officially entered the “Three New” era of new curriculum, new textbooks, and new college entrance examinations. The core of this transformation lies in developing students' core competencies and fulfilling the fundamental mission of fostering virtue through education. As an extension and refinement of classroom instruction, the effectiveness of mathematics homework design directly impacts the achievement of curriculum objectives. Against this backdrop of the “Three New Initiatives,” this paper references the 2019 People's Education Press Edition A high school mathematics textbook to thoroughly analyze the shortcomings of traditional homework design, such as monotonous formats, detachment from practical applications, and neglect of individual differences. Building upon this foundation and integrating detailed teaching practice cases with relevant educational theories, the paper systematically constructs effective homework design principles oriented toward “core competencies”: purposefulness and competency-based design, tiered and optional approaches, contextual and applied tasks, inquiry-based and open-ended assignments, and integrated and interdisciplinary assignments. Furthermore, the paper proposes four highly effective and practical homework models: unit-integrated assignments, project-based learning tasks, tiered flexible assignments, and mathematical writing/reflection exercises. It elaborates on their design essentials and assessment methods. This research aims to provide frontline teachers with actionable homework design approaches and paradigms, driving a profound shift in high school mathematics instruction from “knowledge-centered” to “competency-centered” education to tangibly enhance educational quality.

Research on the mechanism and practical path of swimming teaching on cultivating students' mental toughness
This paper mainly studies the value of swimming teaching to cultivate students' mental toughness and explores how it can achieve the goal of education with the help of unique teaching environment and purposeful intervention mechanism. On the basis of analyzing the current lack of students' mental toughness, this paper theoretically discusses the three mechanisms of swimming teaching to cultivate students' psychological resilience by facing fear, embracing failure, and delaying gratification, and focuses on the important role played by teachers in it, that is, creating a safe environment, decomposing teaching objectives, and reconstructing the meaning of setbacks. Based on empirical cases such as physical education reform and adaptive swimming teaching method of Peking University School of Medicine (hereinafter referred to as "Peking Medical University"), this study puts forward corresponding countermeasures for the improvement of swimming teaching from the practical dilemma and provides a certain reference for enriching the theory of physical education and optimizing teaching practice in schools.
Practice and Reflectionon Effective Questioningin Primary School Mathematics Classrooms Under the Background of the New Curriculum Standards
In order to explore the current state of effective questioning implementation in primary school mathematics classrooms under the new curriculum standards, this study takes teachers from urban and county-level primary schools in City D of Inner Mongolia as samples. Through questionnaire surveys and statistical data analysis, the research is conducted across dimensions including teachers' cognition of classroom questioning, question design, implementation, post-response evaluation, students' questioning behavior, and teacher reflection. The results indicate that while most teachers recognize the importance of questioning, issues such as excessively high and arbitrary questioning frequency, insufficient wait time, narrow selection of respondents, unscientific evaluation and feedback, and weak student problem-awareness persist. Contributing factors include insufficient teacher emphasis, outdated teaching philosophies, lack of individualized teaching, and students' lack of questioning habits. Accordingly, optimization strategies are proposed, including clarifying the purpose of question design, reasonably controlling wait time, balancing the selection of respondents, implementing encouraging evaluations, designing engaging questions, and cultivating students' questioning abilities. Although the study has limitations in case observations and regional sample restrictions, it provides data support and practical references for improving the quality of questioning in primary school mathematics classrooms and promoting the development of students' mathematical thinking.
The Path Impact of the Popular Music Industry Structure on Higher Education: A Comparative Study of China, the United States and South Korea
Driven by streaming media, the global recorded music industry has maintained growth for many consecutive years. China has entered the ranks of the world's top five music markets, with the total scale of the music industry approaching 500 billion yuan (IFPI, 2024; Zhao Zhi 'an, 2024). Compared with the macro figures, there is still a significant asymmetry between the popular music education in colleges and universities and the musician ecosystem: on the one hand, there is a rapid expansion of enrollment scale and a proliferation of majors; on the other hand, there is a shortage of creative and compound music talents, and young musicians generally face high pressure in the environment of independent production and music project-based systems. This article takes China, the United States and South Korea as references. Based on sorting out the global music industry pattern, it compares the educational paths of popular music in the three countries from three aspects: "starting time - discipline naming - curriculum structure" (Lu Houting, 2014; Xie Jiani, Kim Hyun-tae, 2024;) Powell (2015) pointed out that the core issue currently faced by China's popular music education is not "whether to offer majors or not", but "how to connect the majors offered with the industry and how to match the musicians needed by the market". Based on this, combined with reports on China's music industry and front-line teaching practices, this article proposes several reconstruction ideas from three dimensions: the education system, the musician ecosystem, and the urban/industrial structure. This includes courses reorganized along the "creation - production - dissemination" chain, the establishment of a collaborative practice platform for "universities - cities - industries", and deeper creative guidance centered on youth aesthetics, social issues, and local cultural experiences. This article aims to provide a set of reference frameworks that are both realistic and operational for the China Conservatory of Popular Music in the new round of discipline construction and talent cultivation reform.

Connotation and Analysis of Innovation and Entrepreneurship Training Practice in Colleges and Universities—A Case Study of Anhui Institute of Information Technology
Innovation is the soul of a nation's development and the core driving force behind a country's prosperity. In the 21st century, characterized by increasingly fierce competition and accelerating development pace, stimulating creative thinking and conducting creative practice have become key issues for the development of the times. The renowned educational scholar Taylor once pointed out: "The value of creativity is not only reflected in promoting scientific and technological innovation, but also has far-reaching significance for national development and even global progress. If a country can fully explore, cultivate and inspire the potential creative capabilities of its people, it will be able to occupy a key position in the global pattern." Moreover, innovation capability is an important foundation for entrepreneurial activities; only with solid innovation literacy can entrepreneurial practice have the possibility of sustainable development. Entrepreneurship is not only an important practical form to promote the coordinated progress of various fields in society, but also an inevitable choice to conform to the trend of the times, playing an irreplaceable role in promoting the overall progress of society.
An Analysis of Interdisciplinary Educational Paths in Junior High School Film and Television Textbooks: A Case Study of Art: Film and Television (Including Digital Media Art) Published by Guangdong Education Publishing House
In the context of the comprehensive advancement of core competency-based education, interdisciplinary integration has emerged as a pivotal approach to deepening curriculum reform and fulfilling the fundamental task of "fostering virtue through education" (Lide Shuren). Taking the Art: Film and Television (Including Digital Media Art) textbook published by Guangdong Education Publishing House as a case study, this paper provides an in-depth analysis of its top-level design and content implementation, focusing on its emphasis on interdisciplinary integration, particularly the distinctive features and value of its profound synthesis with the disciplines of Chinese Language Arts and History. Adhering to the principles of the Compulsory Education Art Curriculum Standards (2022 Edition), the textbook establishes two primary integration paths: a "mutual appreciation between literature and film" (Wen-Ying Hu-Jian) approach for Chinese Language Arts, and a "verifying film with history" (Yi-Shi Zheng-Ying) approach for History. These paths tightly integrate the core knowledge of cinematic art with students' pre-existing knowledge systems, cognitive frameworks, and values from foundational disciplines. Such a design not only innovates the pedagogical paradigm for art education but also systematically enhances students' core competencies—including aesthetic perception, cultural understanding, and creative practice—through interdisciplinary activities. It represents a profound and effective exploration in textbook development, tailored to meet the demands of the new era.

Challenges and Breakthroughs Faced by Teaching Subjects in the Context of Generative Artificial Intelligence
Generative artificial intelligence has achieved remarkable accomplishments in various fields over the past decade. The report of the 20th National Congress of the Communist Party of China clearly emphasizes 'promoting the digitalization of education and building a learning society and a learning-oriented major country for lifelong learning for all,' leveraging the advantages of artificial intelligence. Along with educational reforms, the education sector has responded strongly to new technologies, and generative artificial intelligence has begun to play an 'assistant to teachers' role in teaching. However, generative artificial intelligence also poses certain challenges to teaching subjects, mainly reflected in the enhancement of AI subjectivity, the confusion of teacher subjectivity, and the obscuring of student subjectivity. To address the challenges brought by generative artificial intelligence to teaching subjects, strategies such as encouraging mutual advancement between education and information technology, steadily enhancing teachers' digital literacy, and strengthening students' thinking training and innovation capabilities are proposed to promote high-quality teaching by teachers and the development of students' critical thinking abilities.

A Survey on the Current Situation of Professional Literacy and Craftsmanship Spirit in Mathematics Classes of Secondary Vocational School Students —— A Case Study of Computer Major
This study aims to systematically investigate the current situation of professional literacy and craftsmanship spirit displayed by secondary vocational school students majoring in computer science in mathematics classes. A questionnaire titled "Questionnaire on the Current Situation of Professional Literacy and Craftsmanship Spirit of Secondary Vocational School Students in Mathematics Classes" was used to survey 285 computer major students from a secondary vocational school, and in-depth analysis was conducted combined with interviews. The results show that: (1) Secondary vocational school students majoring in computer science performed relatively best in the dimension of "strictness and standardization" (M=3.82), but relatively weak in the dimensions of "striving for excellence" (M=3.21) and "exploration and innovation" (M=2.97); (2) Senior students were significantly better than junior students in the dimensions of "logical thinking" and "systematic thinking" (p<0.01); (3) Students generally recognized the importance of professional literacy (M=4.15), but thought that the current mathematics teaching was not closely combined with it (M=2.89).
The Millennial Trajectory of the “Number Eleven”: The Historical Constant of China’s Tax Burden Rate and a Study on Pedagogical Transformation
Using an “11% tax-burden rate” as the point of departure, this study systematically reviews rate data across three millennia of Chinese tax-system evolution—from the Western Zhou well-field system’s “jiu yi er zhu” (11.11%), through the Tang dynasty’s rent-corvée-tax regime (8%–15%) and the Ming dynasty’s Single-Whip Reform (12.5%), to modern composite tax rates in sectors such as construction and legal services (11.6%–11.7%). The analysis reveals a historical-constant phenomenon in which the burden rate fluctuates around 11%. Building on the dynamic balance between fiscal demand and the populace’s capacity to bear taxes, the paper proposes a constant-burden model and, further, designs an interdisciplinary translation pathway that integrates historical evidence with mathematical modeling, data analysis, and real-world problem solving. The resulting framework provides an actionable scheme for linking secondary-school history on institutional change with mathematics on percentage applications, thereby fostering students’ core competencies.
Practical Research on the Collaborative Education of Curriculum Ideology and Politics and Secondary Vocational Mathematics Teaching under the Background of a Powerful Education Country
Under the national strategic background of building a powerful education country, vocational education undertakes the important mission of cultivating high-quality technical and skilled talents, craftsmen, and great craftsmen of the country. Curriculum Ideology and Politics is a key path to realize the "all-round, whole-process, and all-staff education" (Sanquan Education). As an important public basic course, secondary vocational mathematics contains rich ideological and political elements in its teaching process. This study aims to explore the internal logic and practical strategies of the collaborative education between Curriculum Ideology and Politics and secondary vocational mathematics teaching. Firstly, the article analyzes the new requirements put forward by the powerful education country strategy for the education goals of secondary vocational education, and expounds the necessity and feasibility of integrating Curriculum Ideology and Politics with mathematics teaching. Furthermore, it deeply explores the ideological and political elements contained in the secondary vocational mathematics curriculum, such as materialist dialectics, scientific spirit, patriotism, and professional literacy. On this basis, a collaborative education practice model of "in-depth excavation - organic integration - innovative methods - scientific evaluation" is proposed, which is illustrated through specific teaching cases. Finally, in view of the challenges in current practice, such as teachers' insufficient ability in ideological and political education, rigid integration methods, and imperfect evaluation system, corresponding countermeasures and suggestions are put forward, in order to provide reference for promoting the reform of secondary vocational mathematics teaching and realizing the organic unity of knowledge impartment, ability cultivation and value guidance.
Research on Innovative Teaching of Classical Chinese in Junior High School Chinese Based on Generative AI
With the comprehensive rollout of the “Double Reduction” policy, optimizing assignment design has become an important pathway to improving the quality of compulsory education. Using Chengdu Wenweng Experimental Middle School as a case, this study targets problems in junior high school English assignments—such as single forms, mechanical content, disconnection from real life, and insufficient cultivation of competencies. Drawing on Multiple Intelligences theory and integrated curriculum theory, and employing action research, questionnaires, and interviews, it constructs a system of integrated practical assignments organized by unit themes and characterized by interdisciplinary integration, and proposes four design principles: unit holism, comprehensive application, real-life practice, and individualized tiering. Practice shows that such assignments significantly enhance students’ comprehensive language-use ability, learning interest, and collaborative inquiry awareness, while also promoting teachers’ assignment-design capacity and professional development. This study provides a feasible practical model and reference for optimizing and innovating junior high school English assignments under the “Double Reduction” policy.
With the rapid development of modern information technology, generative AI has shown great potential in language processing, situational creation, and spatiotemporal scene construction, providing new possibilities for educational innovation. The traditional teaching of classical Chinese faces practical challenges such as single teaching methods, fixed teaching models, and one-sided teaching evaluations, which restrict students' development and hinder the improvement of their core competencies. Therefore, based on constructivist learning theory and multiple intelligence theory, this study uses generative AI as the technical support to carry out innovative research on classical Chinese teaching. By visualizing classical Chinese texts and gamifying classical Chinese learning, we aim to stimulate students' interest in learning; By customizing personalized teaching models and fully implementing the principle of teaching according to students' aptitude, we can meet the differentiated needs of students; Through multidimensional teaching evaluation, promote the development of students' literacy, help students complete the closed loop of "learning classical Chinese - using classical Chinese", and strive to cultivate students into new era literacy talents. The deep integration of technology and education will also bring new opportunities for the development of classical Chinese in junior high school Chinese.
Educational Equity and the Allocation of Financial Resources
Educational equity is a cornerstone of social justice, and the allocation of financial resources—as the key support for educational development—directly affects the extent to which equity is realized. This paper examines the intrinsic relationship between educational equity and financial resource allocation. First, it reviews the current status of educational finance in China and analyzes how interregional, urban–rural, and interschool imbalances shape equity of opportunity, process, and outcome. Second, at the theoretical level, it explicates the transmission mechanisms through which resource allocation influences equity—via funding scale, structural optimization, and distribution arrangements—and uses empirical evidence to validate their dynamic relationship. Finally, in view of structural contradictions in current allocation practices, it proposes policy measures to advance the coordinated pursuit of educational equity and financial efficiency, including improving the transfer-payment system, optimizing the direction of financial inputs, and innovating educational-finance instruments. The study offers theoretical reference and practical guidance for achieving high-quality, balanced educational development.
