Abstract
This study investigates the effectiveness and technological innovation in historical and cultural heritage education across several Chinese universities, focusing on Yulin College, Shaanxi Normal University, Yan’an University, Weinan Normal University, and Shenmu Vocational and Technical Education Center. Utilizing a purposive sampling technique, the research involves 250 students who have taken history classes in these institutions. Data collection is conducted through a self-made questionnaire informed by extensive literature reviews. Employing a non-experimental quantitative design, this descriptive comparative correlational research examines the relationship between educational effectiveness and technological innovation. The study aims to provide a detailed depiction of the association between these variables within their natural educational settings. The findings reveal a diverse student demographic, with 56.1% females and 88.5% aged 16-20 years. Students rated the curriculum's comprehensiveness, engagement, pedagogical techniques, resource accessibility, and cultural value positively. While perceptions of educational effectiveness were consistent across genders, age-related differences highlighted varied experiences and expectations. Technological innovation, including digital resources, interactive platforms, and multimedia integration, received favorable evaluations from students, indicating a positive impact on their learning experience. The study found a strong positive correlation between curriculum comprehensiveness and technological innovation, suggesting that integrating technology enhances educational effectiveness. The study concludes that historical and cultural heritage education in the surveyed universities is effective, with students responding positively to curriculum and technological integration. Recommendations include developing age-inclusive strategies, expanding technological integration, enhancing digital skills, ensuring gender-inclusive education, evolving curricula, improving feedback tools, providing professional development for educators, and conducting ongoing research and evaluation.
