Aesthetic Education and Traditional Culture in The Context of New Engineering Disciplines

Exploring the Teaching Mode of Collaborative Education

Abstract

Under the background of the construction of new engineering disciplines, the in-depth integration of aesthetic education and engineering training has become an important way to cultivate high-quality engineering and technological talents. This study takes "comb design and production" as a practical carrier, and explores the innovative teaching mode of collaborative education between aesthetic education and traditional culture in the context of new engineering disciplines. The course adopts the teaching concept of "traditional innovation + modern technology", combines the "online + offline" flipped classroom format, and realizes the organic combination of aesthetic literacy, engineering skills and cultural inheritance through group cooperation and full-process practice. The results of the study show that the teaching mode effectively improves students' aesthetic literacy, design ability and engineering practice ability, and at the same time enhances their understanding and sense of identity of the excellent traditional Chinese culture. Through a diversified evaluation system (including self-assessment, intra-group mutual evaluation, inter-group mutual evaluation and teacher evaluation), the course comprehensively examined the students' comprehensive abilities, ensuring the scientific and fairness of the teaching effect. In addition, in the whole process of design, production and optimization, students cultivated teamwork ability, innovative thinking and craftsmanship, laying a solid foundation for the comprehensive development of new engineering talents. This study not only provides a practical example for the deep integration of aesthetic education and engineering training in the context of new engineering disciplines but also provides a theoretical reference for the innovation and reform of aesthetic education in colleges and universities. In the future, the curriculum design and evaluation system will be further optimized, and more teaching cases combining traditional culture and modern technology will be explored, with a view to supporting the cultivation of new-age engineering and technological talents with all-round development of morality, intelligence, physicality, aesthetics and labor.
