Abstract

The mental health quality of college students directly affects their success and development. However, the effect of mental health quality education is inevitably influenced by the environmental changes. Therefore, this paper aims to design a training mode of mental health quality for college students in all-media environment. Based on the theories of pedagogy, communication and psychology, the author firstly discussed the essence and connotation of mental health quality education for college students. Then, the college education of mental health quality was divided into three stages, according to the features of mental health development of college students in the all-media environment. On this basis, the author determined the categories and levels of objectives in different stages, and put forward the guarantee mechanism of the mental health quality of college students in the all-media environment. This paper provides a reference for the innovation in mental health education in the all-media environment.

INTRODUCTION

With the progress of knowledge economy era and global integration, the competition of talents has become the core of the competition in terms of comprehensive national strength among countries. As the times goes on, people's definition of talents is constantly being updated. What the new era needs is talents with all-round development, which requires not only a higher scientific and cultural level, but also a certain innovation ability and, more importantly, good mental health quality. At present, the education of college students' mental health quality has received extensive attention from all walks of life.

The advent of the all-media era has provided convenience for college students to obtain information. The current all-media application takes the network as its main form of expression,

which is popular among college students for its rich content, convenience, quickness and strong interactivity (Macaskill and Ann, 2013). In the all-media environment, college students' learning, life and communication styles have undergone significant changes. The change of environment will inevitably affect the educational work and effect, so it is of great significance to study the

mode in the all-media environment.

In foreign countries, the research on personality cultivation mode for students with psychological diseases started earlier, social workers and school tutors are the main defenders of students' mental health education (Cook, 2007). At present, the family-school-community cooperation mode is the mainstream mental health education mode abroad, but this mode pays more attention to the shaping of objective environment and ignores the importance of students' subjective initiative (Brooks-Gunn & Fisch, 1980). At the end of the 20th century, the research on the mental quality

education mode rose in China. The main mental quality education modes can be summarized as Mr. Lin Jianhua's teaching material based teaching method mode and Zhu Xinhua's Four Combinations Mode, both of which are targeted at middle school students (Harrison & Fredrickson, 2003). Wei Xiaobai put forward the creative mental health quality education mode (Gist & Stolz, 1982), which takes primary school students as the educational targets. At the end of the 20th century, Zheng Hejun integrated and combed the previous educational modes and put forward the psychological education mode (Merritt, LaQuea, Cromwell et al., 2016). Zhang Lvxiang put forward the CPI model of mental health quality education for primary and secondary school students (Tacker & Dobie, 2008). Regarding the mental health quality education mode for college students, Wang Jianzhong proposed the "3*3+1" mental health quality training mode (Bottino et al., 2015), and Cheng Minglian put forward the mental health quality education mode of Four Main Channels (Sarchiapone, 2012) based on investigation and empirical investigation. The above mental health quality education modes have their own advantages and disadvantages, but the contemporary educational environment has changed, so the original mental health quality education modes can hardly apply to today's all-media environment. Only by formulating a mental health quality education mode that conforms to the all-media education environment can the mental health quality of college students be better promoted.

Based on the above analysis, this paper make a brief introduction of all-media environment and theories on college students' mental health quality education; in combination with the previous research results, formulates the college

students’ mental health quality training mode in

different stages in the all-media environment, and puts forward corresponding safeguard measures, so as to provide certain reference basis for college students' mental health quality education in the all-media environment.

RELEVANT THEORETICAL BASES

All-media environment

With the development of digital information technology and network technology, the form of the media is constantly changing, forcing media convergence to become an irreversible trend.

The academic community has not yet clearly defined the concept of all-media, but it can be understood that all-media is a product of media convergence, a description of the current complex media environment, a brand-new form of media operation, and a new means of information generation and dissemination (Knifton & Quinn, 2008). The all-media environment can provide a platform that includes all kinds of media, fully covers the audience and provides ultra-subdivided services for the audience (Hodgson, 1996).

Mental health quality education for college students

Quality and mental health quality

Quality is a self-organizing system, which is the most basic of all human traits and unique to human beings. Influenced by genetic factors and acquired environment, the quality has implicitness and stability. For college students, they should have mental health quality, scientific and cultural quality and physiological quality, and in these three quality structures, mental health quality is at the core (Mishna, Regehr, Lacombe-Duncan et al., 2018). Mental health quality, like quality, has its own organizational system, specifically including cognitive quality, personality quality and adaptation quality. Cognitive quality provides the knowledge basis, personality quality is the core, and adaptation quality is for the development function, which is the concentrated embodiment of mental health quality.

Mental health quality education for college students

The mental health quality education for college students is targeted at all college students, with the purpose of cultivating the comprehensive quality of college students, improve their adaptability and innovation ability, and promoting the coordinated development. When carrying out mental health quality education for college students, relevant theories such as pedagogy and psychology should be comprehensively applied, and teaching methods should also be flexible and diverse. Case teaching, situational teaching and other methods should be used together to avoid boring transmission of theoretical knowledge.

quality education. It is a specific program model adopted in educational activities. A complete educational mode should include educational objects, objectives, contents, principles and methods.

CONSTRUCTION OF COLLEGE STUDENTS' MENTAL HEALTH QUALITY TRAINING MODE IN THE ALL-MEDIA ENVIRONMENT

Construction of college students' mental health quality training mode in the all-media environment

Under the influence of the all-media environment, college students suffer from different psychological problems and perplexities in different stages of development. Therefore, according to the three-element mode of mental health quality education, this paper formulates the college students' mental health quality training mode in different stages in the all-media environment.

Table 1 shows the specific requirements of cognitive goal, personality goal and adaptation goal of college students' mental health quality at different stages in the all-media environment.

Freshmen

Freshmen have just entered the college campus from high schools, and suffer from great

changes in their learning and living environment and ways. Therefore, for freshmen, the cultivation of mental health quality is a developmental mental health quality cultivation based on role adaptation. However, in the all-media environment with the network as the main form of existence, college students rely too much on the network and believe that all-media can solve all problems, resulting in their loss of interest in communicating with their classmates, withdrawn personality, weak dialectical thinking ability and failure to concentrate in class.

Therefore, it’s essential to focus on cultivating

the developmental psychology of freshmen, enabling them to treat the all-media environment rationally, correctly recognize themselves, set reasonable learning objectives, and learn to adapt to campus life, learning and communicate with others, so as to realize all-round development. Figure 1 shows the specific content requirements for the cultivation of freshmen's mental health quality in the all-media environment.

Sophomores and junior students

Sophomores and junior students have adapted to college campus life and started to establish their own interpersonal network.

However, in this process, due to differences in personality and characteristics and different attitudes towards things, as well as the impact of "daddy-is-the-key" and "showing off wealth" in

the all-media environment, college students' emotional and interpersonal views have been seriously affected. In the study of psychological courses, many students appear learning burnout and disagree with the attitude of psychological courses, which produce the unsatisfactory effect in social practice. On the one hand, this is related to the emphasis on form instead of contents in psychological courses and social practice, and on the other hand, it also results from the weak psychological motivation of college students. Therefore, it is necessary to guide students to

make full use of the convenience of learning and communication provided by the all-media environment, improve their self-control ability, correctly handle the relationship between the virtual world and the real world, and pay attention to the cultivation of practical mental health quality mainly based on college and interpersonal communication. Figure 2 shows the specific content requirements for the cultivation of mental health quality of sophomores and junior students in the all-media environment.

Senior students

Senior students are facing a series of problems related to their future development, such as postgraduate entrance examination and employment. It is easy of them to have psychological problems such as anxiety, eagerness for quick success and instant benefits, and confusion in role orientation. They are prone to do abnormal and extreme things. Therefore,

for students at this stage, overcoming bad psychology and carrying out reasonable career planning are the key points of mental health quality cultivation, so as to ensure the smooth socialization transition of college students. Figure 3 shows the specific content requirements of mental health quality cultivation for senior students in the all-media environment.

Guarantee mechanism of college students' mental health quality training mode in the all-media environment

In order to effectively implement the college students' mental health quality training mode at different stages in the all-media environment, it is essential to construct a corresponding guarantee mechanism. Figure 4 shows the guarantee mechanism from three levels proposed in this paper for the college students' mental health quality training mode in the all-media environment.

Human resources level

First of all, colleges and universities should increase the construction of teaching staff, so that every teacher and counselor can use the all-media environment to educate and communicate with college students. The mental health quality education for college students cannot rely solely on setting up mental health courses and psychological counseling rooms, but should let students really participate in the

mental health quality education. Secondly, it’s

critical to cultivate professional teachers and counselors in mental health quality, who can teach students in accordance with their aptitude and change teaching methods according to the

actual needs of students. Finally, it’s essential to

make full use of social resources and introduce social workers with common medical knowledge and professional psychological knowledge to

carry out regular mental health assessment and education for college students.

Main position construction level

At present, many psychological counseling rooms in colleges and universities are useless. When college students encounter psychological problems, they seldom think of going to the psychological counseling room for counseling. In order to give full play to the role of the main position of the psychological counseling rooms, colleges and universities should optimize the functions of a psychological counseling center, and make full use of the all-media environment to establish the psychological health database of college students, update it regularly, add the online psychological counseling function, and regularly publish psychological health knowledge, so that students can conduct psychological problem counseling online anonymously.

Student organization construction level In recent years, student organizations have been active in every corner of colleges and universities. Student organizations provide a platform for students to show themselves and provide opportunities for students to practice themselves in society. They are deeply loved by students. Colleges and universities should give full play to and make good use of the role of student organizations. With the help of student
