Abstract

In the current digital era, actively exploring the integration of online and offline teaching empowered by technology stands as a pivotal responsibility for educators. It embodies the core duty of the educators, and the effective way to implement the fundamental task of "cultivating morality and cultivating people". Drawing on the rich tapestry of indigenous cultural resources and the foundation laid by four distinct classroom settings, an endeavor is made to craft a blended instructional design known as "Five Links and Two Stages" within the framework of the course Outline of Chinese Modern and Contemporary History. This design seeks to elevate the efficiency and caliber of offline teaching through the synergy of online and practical instruction. The concept of Five Links encompasses "Online Learning, Thematic Contemplation, Team Implementation, Collective Reflection, and Advancement", whereas the Two Stages encapsulate theoretical discourse and practical application.
