Construction of a "Three-Dimensional Integration" Model for Curriculum Ideological and Political Education in Macroeconomics

Abstract

Curriculum ideological and political education has become an important requirement in undergraduate teaching reform in China. As
a core foundational course for economics and management majors, Macroeconomics contains rich value-oriented resources because it deals
with national income, employment, inflation, growth, and macroeconomic regulation. Yet in actual teaching, ideological and political elements
are often added in a fragmented way, resulting in weak relevance, limited student engagement, and insufficient assessment support. To address
this problem, this paper proposes a "three-dimensional integration" model for Macroeconomics teaching from the dimensions of teaching content, teaching process, and teaching evaluation. The study argues that effective curriculum ideological and political education should not rely
on temporary insertion of policy discourse, but should be embedded in concept explanation, case discussion, and learning assessment in a coordinated manner. On this basis, the paper further discusses the practical paths of implementation, including chapter-based element mapping,
case-oriented classroom organization, and diversified evaluation design. The proposed model provides an operable framework for improving
the teaching quality of Macroeconomics and strengthening its educational function.
