Abstract

This study systematically investigates the evolving ideological orientations among youth in private higher education institutions. Over a span of two years, it employs a rigorous longitudinal approach to analyze the underlying patterns shaping students' values, behavioral choices, and moral practices. Utilizing an integrated methodology-combining questionnaires, in-depth interviews, and behavioral observations-it reveals the core contradictions within current educational practices, such as imbalances in subject-interactions and disjointed cognitive-behavioral dynamics. Based on these findings, the study introduces an innovative pedagogical framework characterized by “dynamic grouping, tiered interventions, and diversified assessment”. This framework aims to establish a flexible teaching mechanism and a sustainable monitoring system, providing both theoretical guidance and practical pathways for optimizing student development models. The research results offer valuable insights into enhancing the effectiveness of youth ideological education and refining tailored pedagogical strategies in private higher education settings.
