Abstract
This study focuses on the Pu'er tea industry in Yunnan and builds a teaching model that integrates probability theory, ideological education, and industrial practice. It designs typical applications such as stratified sampling, hypothesis testing, yield analysis, market regression, and Bayesian updating. The course follows a structured sequence of context introduction, value questioning, model explanation, code execution, task completion, and reflection. Based on a one-year study of 120 students, the experimental class performed significantly better than the control group in knowledge, values, and skills. The results show notable improvement in accuracy, ideological understanding, and report quality. The model offers a replicable path and evidence base for promoting localized and practical ideological education in science and engineering.
