Digital technological innovation provides new momentum for ideological and political education. Digital empowerment of ideological and political education is a new requirement for fulfilling the fundamental task of moral cultivation in the new era, as well as a new task to adapt to the digital transformation of education and promote educational modernization. By deeply integrating the traditional advantages of ideological and political education with modern information technology, digital technology empowerment leads to profound changes in the components and internal structure of ideological and political education. This transformation brings updates in educational concepts, expansion of educational space, sharing of educational resources, and improvement in educational quality and effectiveness, thus forming a new model of ideological and political education in the digital age. To promote the digital empowerment of ideological and political education, it is essential to accurately identify changes, scientifically respond to them, and proactively seek changes. This includes enriching digital resources for ideological and political education, promoting the co-construction and sharing of high-quality resources, optimizing the educational environment, constructing a blended ecosystem of virtual and physical education, focusing on the cultivation of digital capabilities, enhancing the professional quality of the ideological and political education workforce, and innovating teaching methods to establish a new model of “teaching, learning, and evaluation unity” empowered by digital technologies.
