Features: For many years, the question of how teachers should teach and what they should teach has been a hot topic in the teaching of professional art colleges. With the vigorous development of contemporary art and the gradual deepening of art education reform, this issue has become even more prominent. How should teachers teach? What should they teach? There have always been diverse opinions, with each side holding their own views, and no unified model has been formed, nor should one be. In terms of the essence of art, advocating and fostering the personalized teaching style of teachers remains the widely recognized view today. However, we do not deny the positive role of teachers' personalized teaching in guiding and protecting students' artistic personalities. But we must also face the many problems brought about by objective factors, such as narrow and misleading guidance, permissive laissez-faire, and rigid and single-minded skill instruction. So, can there be a higher concept that fully showcases and leverages the personalized teaching characteristics of teachers while aligning with the basic principles of contemporary art development? Within the framework of the overall goals and principles of art education, we can engage in mutual discussion and continuous improvement to enhance the overall level of higher art education in our country. This is the main intention behind the compilation of this book and what everyone expects.
