ABSTRACT: The rapid development of Large Language Models (LLMs) has brought new opportunities and challenges to the ideological and political education of foreign language courses. Addressing the prevalent issues of fragmented integration of ideological and political elements and “two-layer separation” (the lack of coherent connection between teaching content and ideological content in the current teaching system), this paper explores how to leverage LLMs to construct a foreign language curriculum system that achieves a deep integration of ideological education and language teaching. This paper argues that the construction of ideological and political education in foreign language courses requires macro-level design aligned with national strategies and the distinctive features of institutional talent cultivation, as well as micro-level design at the course implementation level. In the micro-level design, LLMs can support the development of foreign language ideological and political education across four dimensions: teaching objectives, teaching content, teaching methods, and evaluation systems. By facilitating content reconstruction, activity design, and dynamic evaluation, LLMs can effectively compensate for the deficiencies of traditional teaching approaches, innovate pedagogical methods, and promote students’ comprehensive development in language proficiency, ideological awareness, and cross-cultural communication skills.
