This seminar reflects the country’s great emphasis on the construction of teaching materials, and also reflects the education community’s expectations for cultivating students’ all-round development. With the advancement of education reform, it is believed that future teaching materials will pay more attention to the development of students' core competencies, such as strengthening interdisciplinary learning, integrating technological elements, and cultivating students' innovative thinking and problem-solving abilities, etc. At the same time, attention should also be paid to the cultural inheritance function of teaching materials to help students establish correct values and national identity.
