Abstract:

The synthesis and aggregation-induced emission (AIE) performance study of salicylaldehyde Schiff-base is a comprehensive experimental project designed and offered by the College of Chemistry of Zhengzhou University for undergraduate chemistry students. This project has been implemented for five academic years. Throughout this period, several ideological and political education elements have been gradually incorporated into the teaching of this experiment. Through continuous improvement and refinement, it has formed a representative case of experimental teaching with ideological and political education. The case study employs AIE, an advanced scientific theory pioneered by Chinese researchers, as its foundation. It connects the AIE phenomenon with national technological development and societal needs. Through the learning process of discovering the AIE phenomenon, hands-on practical experience with AIE synthesis under various conditions, and the observation of AIE's properties, this case integrates national pride, innovative research spirit, social responsibility, and dialectical materialist thinking into experimental teaching. This approach not only enhances students' comprehensive problem identification, analysis, and resolution skills but also provides them with a deep understanding of the pivotal role of fluorescent materials in the national economy and social development. It elevates students' sense of national self-esteem and self-confidence, reinforces the research philosophy of "seeing what nobody has seen and thinking what nobody has thought", and ignites their enthusiasm to contribute to the country's development.
