Abstract

Red culture is an important component of the culture of socialism with Chinese characteristics, and secondary school teachers are the key force in inheriting red culture. This study, based on a questionnaire survey of 3,557 secondary school teachers in Shanxi Province, systematically examines the current Red Culture literacy from four dimensions: cognitive knowledge of red culture theory, emotional value identification, transmission/inheritance awareness, and dissemination and innovation awareness. The study finds that secondary school teachers exhibit high emotional identification, value recognition and inheritance, and willingness to innovate regarding red culture; however, cognitive depth is insufficient, teaching practice lacks systematicity, and there is a widespread sense of capability anxiety. On this basis, the study analyzes the causes from individual, school, and social policy perspectives, and proposes targeted recommendations to promote the genuine integration of red culture education into the entire process of educating people.
