Abstract
With the advancement of digital technology, new means and methods are being offered in education to enhance teaching-learning. The use of technology in educational interventions has a positive impact on the students’ functional, cognitive, and psychomotor skills. This study aims to improve the teaching mode of ideological and political education (IPE). The research work intends to enhance enthusiasm of college students for ideological and political course (IPC). Based on 5G technology, the rising virtual reality (VR) technology is proposed in this study to improve IPC in colleges and universities. To begin with, the background of IPE and VR technology is introduced. Next, the current college students’ attitudes toward IPE and VR technology are investigated by a questionnaire survey. Finally, based on the red hero culture, the VR system for IPE is designed. Results of the evaluation show that the students who have been the members of the Communist Party have the highest degree of interest for IPC in colleges and universities. Endorsing the fact, about 29.7% college students and 26.81% university students who were members of the communist youth league favored for IPC, while only 14.29% of the masses showed interest for IPC. As a whole, 25.2% of all the students participated in the survey showed their interest for IPC. One of the main reasons behind the results is the teaching mode and means that attract students for IPC. At present, 84.11% of the ideological and political teachers give a lecture of IPC via PPT, while 67.29% of the students prefer the Internet platform as a means of IPC. About 73.4% of the students know VR and are interested in the application of VR to IPC. They believe that VR can help them understand the knowledge of IPC and has broad prospects in improving the teaching quality of IPE. The designed VR system for IPE which is used in colleges and universities has four modules, namely, the preamble module of graphic history, the hero wall module, the hero art sculpture module, and the scene experience module. This system can help realize the objective of IPE in colleges and universities and provides a reference for the application of VR in enhancing IPE.
Highlights
Digital technology transforms information such that to be recognized, processed, stored, analyzed, and transmitted by computers [1]. e 5 G technology provides environmental support for other technologies in digital technology [2]. 5G technology is the acronym to fifth-generation mobile communication technology. e technology is a new broadband mobile communication technology with low delay, high speed, and multiple connections [3]
In view of the lack of attraction of ideological and political education (IPE), this study introduces the mingling of Virtual reality (VR): a realist digital technology, to improve the teaching mode of IPE in the era of 5G. e opportunities and obstacles involved in mingling VR in IPE are properly studied from the relevant literature
It is conclusively evident that digital technology, VR, can effectively raise the speed and depth of teachinglearning process. is section presents the nexus of VR and IPE to improve teaching mode in colleges and universities

It is designed for the needs of the Internet of ings (IoT) and for the mobile Internet. With the development of mobile communication technology, it is rapidly applied in various fields. Erefore, key objective of this study is how to combine new technologies with IPE so that to uplift Reason behind the widespread use of VR is due to its ability to visualize content and concepts and its support for immersive experience [8]. e traditional teaching mode of ideological and political education (IPE) in colleges and universities lacks innovation and only focuses on learning theoretical knowledge [9, 10]. erefore, key objective of this study is how to combine new technologies with IPE so that to uplift
