爱国主义是中华民族精神的核心，也是对新时代大学生的最基本的道德要求。大学生爱国主义教育是我国高校思想政治教育的重要组成部分，而高校则是进行大学生爱国主义教育的重要阵地。新时代国内和国际形势的变化莫测，怎样更好地在大学生这个群体重开展爱国主义教育就显得更加重要。

所处在两个一百年新的历史交汇期，爱国主义呈现出的是新的特征，包括更加开放包容的胸怀、更加理性自信的心态、更具国际担当的意识、更加自觉成熟的行为。新时代也对大学生提出了新的期待，希望他们能成为奋斗者、开拓者、担当者、奉献者。基于自制调查问卷的数据，结合其他学者的研究成果，可以得出爱国主义教育在受到党和国家的高度重视的同时，其教育体制也在逐步规范化、系统化，爱国主义教育成效显著。可同时，大学生爱国主义教育也依旧在教学内容、方法和载体等各方面缺乏时代性、针对性和创新性。出现这些问题是由于复杂的国际环境和不良的社会环境、高校教育工作不到位、大学生自身认知水平不成熟、家庭教育存在不足等四个不同层面的因素造成的。

面对当下的现状，则需要在坚持相关原则的基础上深度发掘爱国主义教育的方式、方法，既有继承又具备创新，既要注重方法创新也要重视载体更新。在吸收外来有益经验的同时，扩宽思路，谋求新时代大学生爱国主义教育的出路。既要充分发挥思想政治理论课的主渠道作用，又要构建好大学生爱国主义网络教育的新阵地。既要从社会、学校下大功夫，也要在家庭教育下大力气。从而落实好“立德树人”的根本任务，凸显好时代特色，将大学生爱国主义教育贯穿于高校教育教学的全过程、全方位之中。要让大学生加强爱国主义的自我教育同时，做更为理性的爱国人，为大学生的爱国主义教育进行补“钙”。

站于新历史节点，对大学生这一群体的爱国主义教育的相关问题研究，更是对助力两个百年，实现伟大复兴中国梦和社会主义现代化具有极其重要的意义。

Patriotism is the core of Chinese national spirit and the most basic moral requirement of college students in the new era. Patriotism education of college students is an important part of ideological and political education in colleges and universities in China, and colleges and universities are the important positions of patriotism education for college students. With the unpredictable changes of the situation at home and abroad in the new era, how to better carry out patriotism education to college students is particularly important.

At the conjuncture of two new centuries, patriotism has assumed new characteristics, including a more open and tolerant mind, a more rational and confident mind, a greater sense of international responsibility, and a more self-conscious and mature behavior. The new era has also put forward new expectations for college students, hoping that they become strivers, pioneers, undertakers and devotees. According to the self-made questionnaire data and the research results of other scholars, it can be concluded that while patriotic education is highly valued by the Party and the state, its education system is gradually standardized and systematic, and patriotic education has achieved remarkable results. At the same time, the patriotism education of college students lacks timeliness, pertinence and innovation in teaching contents, methods and carriers. These problems are caused by three factors at different levels: the complex international environment, the bad social environment and the inadequate educational work.

In the face of this situation, it is necessary to deeply explore the methods and methods of patriotic education on the basis of adhering to the relevant principles, both inheritance and innovation, and pay attention to both method innovation and carrier update. While absorbing beneficial foreign experience, we should broaden our thinking and seek a way out of patriotic education for college students in the new era. It is necessary to give full play to the role of the main channel of ideological and political theory courses, but also to build a new front for college students' patriotic online education. We must work hard not only from society and schools, but also from family education. In this way, the fundamental task of "cultivating morality and cultivating people" is well implemented, the characteristics of the times are highlighted, and the patriotism education of college students runs through the whole process and all-round of college education and teaching. 

Standing at a new historical juncture, it is of great significance to study the issues related to the patriotic education of college students to help realize the great rejuvenation of the Chinese dream and the socialist modernization construction in the two centuries.
