Research on the Effectiveness of the Practical Education Community in Agriculture-related Colleges and Universities:Empirical Analysis Based on the Sample of Nanjing Agricultural University
To comprehensively build a modern socialist country,the most challenging and significant task remains in rural areas,which also provide the broadest and deepest foundation.Agricultural universities and colleges should proactively focus on the fundamental mission of nurturing talent,starting with the practice of fostering a community spirit,to cultivate more individuals who understand and are passionate about agriculture.However,the internal requirements,paths to realization,and effectiveness assessments of this community-building practice in education need further exploration.This study uses survey data from 747 students in agricultural higher education institutions in October 2021 to establish an ordered logistic regression analysis,examining the extent to which the educational community's goals are achieved through practical education in these institutions.The analysis reveals that professional proficiency,practical skills,and sentiments towards agriculture and rural areas positively influence the realization of the educational objectives of the practical education community in agricultural universities.Further analysis of interaction terms indicates that enhancing practical skill training for natural science majors intensifies the effectiveness of the practical education community in agricultural colleges,while strengthening professional competence in social science majors advances the community's effectiveness.Therefore,with the goal of cultivating new talents who understand and are passionate about agriculture,agriculture-related colleges and universities should prioritize outcomes in their educational approach.By enhancing students'innovative capabilities,these institutions should actively develop and refine mechanisms that cultivate sentiments towards agriculture and farmers.This will effectively leverage the practice and community cultivation role of agriculture-related colleges and universities as crucial carriers of this educational mission.
