In the digital age of complex information and numerous temptations, how to effectively guide young people to establish a correct view of national identity and profound patriotism has become an urgent concern. As the future and hope of the country, young people shoulder the lofty mission of carrying forward patriotic feelings, casting the soul of the nation, inheriting the root of culture, and remembering the weight of history. However, the road of national identity education for young people is facing multiple difficulties, such as global culture shock, complex influence of the Internet, shackles of traditional educational thinking, and mixed environment of Internet education. Therefore, in order to solve this dilemma, we should strengthen patriotic education, guided by core values, and shape the patriotic spirit of young people; Innovate the education model, dig deep and inherit the excellent Chinese culture, so that young people can grow up with the nourishment of culture; Work with schools, families, society, and other diverse subjects to broaden the path of national identity education; To enhance the connotation of education, enrich interactive experience activities, and stimulate young people’s interest in learning and patriotic feelings; At the same time, purify the network ecology, cultivate the digital literacy of young people, so that they can distinguish right from wrong in the digital world, so as to build a solid foundation for young people’s national identity, and effectively improve the practical effectiveness of national identity education.
