Based on the Marxist theory of practice and targeting the challenges of homogenization, fragmentation, and superficiality in the practical teaching of ideological and political courses in universities, this study proposes four fundamental pedagogical forms: experiential learning, inquiry-based exploration, service-oriented engagement, and virtual simulation-based training. By establishing strategies such as an "all-staff collaborative" responsibility framework, an "end-to-end integrated" educational ecosystem, and an "omni-domain synergistic" intelligent governance system, the research constructs a holistic educational chain that spans "cognition-emotion-will-behavior cultivation. This approach aims to offer both theoretical insights and actionable pathways for advancing the reform of ideological and political education and enhancing the effectiveness of practical pedagogy in universities.
