Abstract

Many researchers have emphasized the role of Yimeng Revolutionary Spirit in the development of primary school students’ moral behaviors and beliefs. Some primary schools have already carried out a lot of moral education activities involving Yimeng Revolutionary Spirit. However, previous researches mostly used the methodology of theoretical reflection. In contrast, our study used a qualitative method called text analysis, which encoding news content published on official website of educational administration in Shandong Province. Results indicated that there are some problems in moral education activities involving Yimeng Revolutionary Spirit. For example, many cities have not enough attention from government official, and insufficient parent participation, insufficient curriculum resource development, and loss of campus culture. These social, family and school factors above are analyzed in details. Lastly, we proposed four targeted and specific solutions to improve the integration of Yimeng Revolutionary Spirit into moral education, including creating a social culture that promotes Yimeng Revolutionary Spirit, cooperation between parents and school, organizing more and more teacher training and exploring curriculum resources, building campus culture involving Yimeng Revolutionary Spirit.
