Features: The entire textbook series is compiled in accordance with the requirements of the newly issued teaching materials for art education in higher education institutions by the Ministry of Education, catering to the practical needs of current teaching. It is based on three fundamental principles:
1. Emphasizing basic education. The richness and complexity of plastic arts determine the strict requirements for foundational knowledge and skills, necessitating scientific and systematic learning and training. Students not only master the basic methods and techniques of plastic arts but, more importantly, grasp the essential visual form principles.
2. Focusing on art literacy. Whether in art education or design programs, the students we cultivate should not only have solid foundational knowledge but also strong art literacy, keen visual awareness, and refined aesthetic tastes.
3. Guiding innovation and exploration. To help students transition from lower-level to higher-level thinking and progress from the realm of necessity to the realm of freedom, this textbook series not only emphasizes professional foundational education but also integrates modern teaching concepts, particularly in guiding visual thinking methods. It will enable students to approach future explorations more actively, playing a significant role in inspiring innovation.
