民办高职院校思想政治理论课教学改革深入推进,亟须解决课堂有效沟通和建立融洽师生关系的渠道,共情作为一个有效工具,可以起到桥梁作用。基于思想政治理论课教师共情现状,尝试从精选教学内容、创新教学设计、增加教学互动、完善教学评价等方面不断提高思想政治理论课教师共情能力,增强思想政治理论课教学实效。 The teaching reform of ideological and political course in private higher vocational colleges should be further promoted. It is urgent to solve the problem of effective communication in class and establish a harmonious channel between teachers and students. As an effective tool, empathy can play a role as a bridge. Based on the status quo of teachers’ empathy in the course of ideological and political theory, this paper tries to improve the empathic ability of teachers in ideological and political theory from the aspects of selecting teaching contents, innovating teaching design, increasing teaching interaction and improving teaching evaluation, and enhancing the teaching effectiveness of ideological and political theory course.
