Abstract: Since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China (CPC), the CPC Central Committee, with Comrade Xi Jinping as the core, has attached great importance to the development of ideological and political theory courses in colleges and universities from the strategic perspective of cultivating builders of and successors to the socialist cause, and put forward clear requirements for teachers to deliver ideological and political theory courses in an insightful, thorough and lively way. This paper argues that in order to make the ideological and political teaching have a strong appeal and attraction to students, teachers should focus on improving the teaching ability in the following three aspects: first, using academic politics to explain insightfully the teaching content concerning “what it is”; second, provide indepth investigation and skillful guidance to clarify the theoretical logic as regards “why it is”; and third, broadening the horizons and make alive the rational understanding regarding “how to perceive it” through multiple channels, so that students can listen to, remember, use well and spread out the ideological and political theories. It is to achieve the purpose of ideological and political teaching for educating people for the Party, cultivating talents for the country, and provide a more solid foundation and stronger support for the realization of the second centenary goal and the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation.

Key words: ideological and political theory courses, teaching ability improvement, teachers teach insightfully, teachers teach thoroughly, teachers teach lively

摘要： 党的十八大以来，以习近平同志为核心的党中央从培养社会主义建设者和接班人的战略角度高度重视高校思想政治理论课建设，并对教师上好思政课提出了讲深讲透讲活的明确要求。要让思政课教学对学生有强烈的感召力和吸引力，教师应着力提升以下三个方面的教学能力：一是要用学术讲政治把教学内容的“是什么”讲深；二是要善挖掘巧引导把理论逻辑里的“为什么”讲透；三是要宽视野多渠道把理性认识上的“怎么看”讲活，让学生听得进、记得住、用得好、传得开，实现思政课教学为党育人、为国育才和为民族育苗的目的，并为实现第二个百年奋斗目标和中华民族伟大复兴提供更坚实的基础和更有力的支撑。
